Background
Introduction: Sideropenia means lack of iron within the organism. As the result of the absence of the iron the synthesis of hemi decreases in hemoglobin. Sideropenic anemia is the most common anemia to children because of the specific metabolic needs associated with growth and development. Anemia as a lack of iron is charachteriszed by a defect in the synthesis of hemoglobin and as a result of that we end up to a reduction of the red blood cells (micro cells), and to a reduction of amount of hemoglobin (hypochromic).
Aims
The purpose of the paper: was the presentation of cases with sideropenic anemia to our patients.
Methods
Materials and methods: Within the study we had 200 children consisting of all age groups, hospitalized in the Pediatric Clinic, in hemato-oncology department. The diagnosis is done based on the past history, physical examination, and laboratory analysis. The test of iron and transferrin is done using the electronic modern method.
Results
Results: Regarding the age of children diagnosed with sideropenic anemia, the most endangered age group was 0-1 years where 113 cases or (56.1%) were diagnosed, whereas the ages with lower risk were ages 7-15 years which consisted of 18 cases or (5.6%). Further on, according to settlements, we did not have many differences. From villages we have had 109 cases (54.5%), while from the cities 91 cases (45.5%). Male children dominated by 107 cases (53.5%), whereas females consisted of 93 cases (46.5%). In terms of nutritional status, eutrophic children dominated by 131 cases (65.6%). Moreover, according to iron values of 1-2.9 micromoles/L have been presented 14 cases (70%), and of 6-10 micromoles/L 108 cases (54.0%) have been presented. By nominal values of UIBC transferrin have been 187 cases (93.5%), while those with higher values of TIBC consisted of 128 cases (64.8%).
Summary
Conclusion: Based on our data, it is obvious that sideropenic anemia is not rare to our children, however it tends to be quite frequent. A very important part to this disease we consider some factors such as: socio-economic low status, the low level of parental education, and the nutritional manner.
