“…The association between iron deficiency anemia and male gender is related to greater weight gain, increased erythropoiesis activity in 25 . Studies 20,[26][27][28][29] related to factors associated with anemia and iron deficiency in children showed association (p <0.05) with other nutritional indicators, such as age of introduction of juices and/or fruits, milk consumption close to meals and total breastfeeding time, and the highest prevalence was found in children younger than 24 months of age. We must emphasize that it is difficult to establish critical hemoglobin values as a cutoff point in children younger than 6 months of life due to the rapid changes in concentration of this biochemical indicator in this life stage 30 .…”

This study aimed to review food and nutrition insecurity indicators associated with iron deficiency anemia in Brazilian children below 5 years. We searched in electronic databases (SciELO, Lilacs, and Medline) and selected studies by titles, abstracts and full-text reading. Of the 1,023 studies analyzed, 11 fit the inclusion criteria. The results of the studies evidenced that iron deficiency anemia in Brazilian children was associated with sociodemographic and health indicators (male, age below 24 months, children of adolescent mothers, respiratory infections, diarrhea, low maternal schooling, parents' working conditions, nursery time, lack of basic sanitation, maternal anemia, lack of ferrous sulfate use by the mother and/or child and late onset of prenatal care), nutritional indicators (low birth weight, diet characteristics, such as the habit of milk consumption close to meals, low exclusive and full breastfeeding time) and economic indicators (low per capita income). The food and nutrition insecurity analyzed in this study from the perspective of different indicators is associated with iron deficiency anemia in children under 5 years in Brazil.

“…4 The low educational level, lack of information, and low purchasing power of parents and guardians hinder the acquisition of improved quality and more nutritious food, favoring low-quality food and a nutritional impact on childhood. 5 Therefore, governmental initiatives involved in adverse economic situations at the different stages of the life cycle are of paramount importance. 3 The government, concerned with promoting the integral attention to the health of children, implemented the Family Allowance Program, a conditional transfer program based on income established by the Law No.…”

Introduction: The Family Allowance Program (PBF) consists of a direct transfer of income benefiting families in poverty and extreme poverty in the country. Objective: this study aims to characterize the nutritional state of children less than seven years of age, beneficiaries of PBF and followed up by the Food and Nutrition Surveillance System (SISVAN) in the State of Minas Gerais (MG). Methods: the data were obtained from the SISVAN WEB platform from the database comprising information related to the Basic Health Units of MG for the years 2008 to 2011. The nutritional status of these children was evaluated by anthropometric indexes of weight-age, height-age, and body mass indexage (BMI/age). Results: the number of children in the age group from zero to seven years, benefited in the State of Minas Gerais, accounted for 10.5% of the number of total residents in the State in the same age group in 2008; 13.7% in 2009; 19.8% in 2010; and 18.6% in 2011. The most prevalent disturbance of nutritional status among users was excessive weight (average of 26.5% according to the BMI/age indicator); this status became more prevalent over the years whereas low weight and short stature declined in the age range. Conclusions: the beneficiaries of PBF showed reduced incidence of low birth weight and increased incidence of excessive weight. These findings reveal the need for the implementation of nutrition education programs for PBF beneficiary families.

“…3,9,10,19,24 This greater vulnerability might be attributed, mainly, to the accelerated growth and consequent increase in the iron needs in the fi rst years of life. 9 After the sixth month of age, with the end of the iron reserves that were acquired in the uterus, nutrition becomes fundamental to supply the mineral.…”

“…Even in the form of moderate iron defi ciency, it has been associated with reduction in the productive capacity, cognitive development disorders and psychomotor development. 5 ID has been generally associated with risk of low birth weight 19 and reduction in the immunologic capacity, leading to greater susceptibility and to the occurrence of infections and high morbidity and mortality. a In a more comprehensive way, there are the economic consequences, which are directly related to the costs of the treatment of prevailing cases: approximately 5% of the gross domestic product of developing countries is wasted on heath expenses deriving from ID anemia.…”

OBJECTIVE:To estimate the magnitude of the anemia, to analyze the time trends and investigate the factors associated with this disturbance in children in the state of Paraíba, Brazil. METHODS:A cross-sectional survey, of population-based, with 1108 children, aged 6 to 59 months, both sexes in the state of Paraíba. Hemoglobin (Hb) in venous blood was analyzed with an automatic counter. The social-economic and demographic characteristics of children were obtained by questionnaire. Proportions were compared by Pearson's chi-squared test, and the association between hemoglobin concentrations and potential risk factors was tested by regression model Poisson. The time trend of anemia was assessed by the increase/decreased in the prevalence of anemia, using as comparison the prevalence observed in the years 1982, 1992 and 2007. RESULTS:The prevalence of anemia (Hb < 11.0 g/dl) in the state of Paraíba was 36.5% (95%CI 33.7 to 39.3). It was observed that 1.3% (95%CI 0.7 to 1.8) were in severe form (Hb < 7.0 g/dl), 11% (95%CI 9.4 to 13.5) in a moderate form and 87.6% (95%CI 79.1 to 91.2) in the mild form. There was an increase 88.5% in cases of anemia between the years 1982-1992 and stabilization in the prevalence between the years 1992-2007. The analysis adjusted Poisson model showed a greater susceptibility to anemia in children 6 to 24 months of age, those breastfed for six months or more, who co-inhabited with more than four people in the same household and lived in houses with less than fi ve rooms. CONCLUSIONS:The results revealed that anemia remains an important public health problem in the state of Paraíba and despite having been shown an stabilization in the prevalence of anemia between 1992-2007, differently the prevalence observed between 1982-1992, this defi ciency presents in high level, witch requires more effective measures of prevention and control.
