Overview

Systematic analysis shows rising DALYs from anemia in the US, pointing to dietary iron deficiency and gender disparities.

Key Points

  • DALYs related to anemia in the US increased from 332,449 to 418,855 over the study period.
  • Over half of anemia-related DALYs in the US were due to dietary iron deficiency, indicating a significant nutritional issue.
  • The rates of DALYs per 100,000 individuals showed a decline from 1990 until the early 2000s, followed by a steady increase.
  • Women exhibited higher rates of DALYs from anemia compared to men, particularly in cases caused by diabetes and kidney diseases.
