Sensitivity analyses and meta-regression for hemoglobin suggested a higher response with lower trial quality ( suboptimal allocation concealment and blinding ) , use of condiments , and sodium iron edetate and a lower response when adults were included .
Consumption of iron-fortified foods results in an improvement in hemoglobin , serum ferritin , and iron nutriture and a reduced risk of remaining anemic and iron deficient
BACKGROUND The utility of iron fortification of food to improve iron deficiency , anemia , and biological outcomes is not proven unequivocally .
Iron nutrition in infancy: effect of an iron-fortified milk formula.
Iron nutrition in infants was studied in a double-blind trial with artificial milk formula . Statistically significant differences were observed with the iron-fortified formula . Not all haematological indices showed significant differences . The fragiligraph technique result was the only parameter showing differences not influenced by other variables examined
