Summary

This study explored whether low hemoglobin (anemia) is linked to an enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) in children up to 18 years old. Researchers used chest X-rays and echocardiograms to check for heart enlargement in 56 anemic children. The goal was to better understand how anemia affects the heart over time.
