Hypochromic microcytic anemia

This observational study is looking at whether Ferretab comp., an oral iron and folic acid supplement, can improve anemia and heart-related symptoms in adults who also have coronary artery disease or heart failure. Participants take the supplement for 12 weeks as part of their us…

This trial tests whether a nutrition program before elective open-heart surgery can reduce blood transfusions in patients with mild anemia. Participants receive a high-protein diet with iron and vitamin supplements, plus educational materials, for 8 to 12 weeks before their opera…

This trial tests whether a daily iron-rich snack bar can improve hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls with mild anemia. Researchers plan to enroll 100 girls aged 16 to 18, with half eating two bars each day for 12 weeks while the other half follows their usual diet. The bars are…

This phase 3 trial tests whether a single infusion of a new intravenous iron, Ferric Bepectate, can raise hemoglobin as effectively as two infusions of the current standard treatment (ferric carboxymaltose) in adults with iron deficiency anemia. About 1,366 participants will rece…

This trial tests whether a single dose of ferric carboxymaltose can treat iron-deficiency anemia after stomach cancer surgery as effectively as multiple doses of iron sucrose. About 160 adults who had curative stomach cancer surgery and developed anemia will be randomly assigned …

This trial compares two intravenous iron treatments—ferric carboxymaltose and iron sucrose—in pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia who need IV iron. Researchers want to see which one raises hemoglobin levels more after four weeks and whether one reduces hospital visits and …

This study investigates whether combining aerobic exercise with blood flow restriction—using a pressure cuff on the thigh—can improve key blood markers in young women with iron deficiency anemia. Fifty participants aged 19-25 with mild to moderate anemia will walk on a treadmill …

This study looks at whether giving iron every day or every other day works better for children with iron deficiency anemia. About 100 kids aged 1-18 will take oral iron for 3 months. Researchers will check blood levels to see which schedule helps more and causes fewer stomach iss…

This study tests whether a single intravenous dose of iron (ferric derisomaltose) can improve symptoms, reduce hospitalizations, and boost quality of life in adults aged 65 and older who have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and iron deficiency. Participants receive…

This study tests whether eating goat liver three times a week can improve anemia in teenage girls in Nepal, compared to standard iron-folic acid pills. Researchers will also look at how gut bacteria affect iron absorption. Sixty girls aged 15-19 with anemia will be randomly assig…

This study will test whether taking oral iron supplements every other day works as well as taking them daily for pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia in their second trimester. About 184 women will be randomly assigned to one of two dosing schedules for four weeks. Research…

This trial compares two ways to treat iron deficiency anemia in children aged 1 to 5 years: oral iron syrup taken daily for weeks, or a single intravenous (IV) iron infusion. The goal is to see which approach raises hemoglobin levels faster and with fewer side effects. The study …

This study compares giving iron every other day versus daily to children with iron deficiency anemia. The goal is to see if the every-other-day schedule works just as well, causes fewer stomach problems, and is easier for families to follow. Sixty children aged 6 months to 12 yea…

This study compares an oral iron supplement (sucrosomial iron) to the usual intravenous (IV) iron given to anemic patients before heart surgery. About 75 adults with mild anemia scheduled for heart procedures will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The goal is to …

This study tests whether giving a single dose of intravenous iron the day after heart surgery can reduce the chance of long-term anemia. About 180 adults with low iron or anemia before surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either the iron treatment or a placebo. The main g…

This study tests whether a new oral iron supplement called Sucrosomial iron (Sideral Folico) can effectively treat iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women. Researchers will enroll 82 pregnant women between 24 and 32 weeks of pregnancy with mild to moderate anemia. The goal is to…

Anemia often goes unnoticed because diagnosis requires a blood draw. This study tests whether a wrist-worn smartwatch can identify people likely to have anemia by tracking blood flow, heart rate, oxygen, and movement. About 400 adults, with and without anemia, will wear the watch…

This study tests whether a non-invasive device that uses light to measure hemoglobin through the skin can accurately detect anemia. Researchers will compare its readings with standard blood tests in 150 adults in Jakarta. If the device proves reliable, it could offer a quick, pai…

Anemia from iron deficiency is common in pregnancy and after childbirth, affecting many women. This trial tests whether iron given through a vein can raise hemoglobin levels and improve how women feel and function in everyday life before and after delivery. Researchers will compa…

This study compares two types of iron supplements—standard ferrous salt and a newer liposomal form—in adult women with iron-deficiency anemia caused by heavy menstrual bleeding. About 100 women will take one of three treatments daily or every other day for three months. Researche…

This study looks at whether giving iron through an IV in the emergency department can help children with iron deficiency anemia recover faster than taking iron pills. Researchers will compare how quickly anemia resolves, how many children need blood transfusions or hospital stays…

This observational study follows people with obesity-related heart failure to see how their heart performs during exercise, using stress echocardiography. It observes those who are taking GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists (like semaglutide or tirzepatide) as part of their routine care,…

This study looks at how different types of anemia—like iron deficiency or thalassemia—can change HbA1c levels, a common test for diabetes, in people who do not have diabetes. Researchers will compare HbA1c results between 100 non-diabetic adults with various anemias and a healthy…

This study aims to see if two short questionnaires can accurately measure how much dietary fiber and iron people eat, compared to the standard method of keeping detailed food records for five days. About 50 adults aged 18 to 65 will fill out the questionnaires and also complete 2…

This study looks at 300 adults hospitalized with heart failure to see if iron deficiency (with or without anemia) is linked to abnormal heart rhythms or ECG changes. Researchers will measure iron levels and monitor for arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation or ventricular tachycard…
