Nutrition and iron deficiency states among women and children of Republic Sakha (Yakutia)

Abstract
Actual nutrition of pregnant women was studied on a basis of epidemiological research. It is established that rations of a majority of the pregnant women are profoundly deficient in an energy value and all nutrients. Parameters of «red blood» (RBC, HGB, Ht, MCH, MCHC, MCV, RDW and PLT) and iron metabolism (serum iron, ferritin and transferrin) of the pregnant women, puerperas and newborns were studied. A high frequency of iron deficiency states among the pregnant women, puerperas and their newborns is determined. It is proved that the iron deficiency negatively affects a course of the pregnancy, childbirth, a condition of a fetus and newborn. A conducted canonical correlation analysis revealed a significant interrelation between the blood parameters in the first and second trimesters with protein content and minerals (iron, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus) in the mother’s ration.
