Interesting; looking at Table 2:

  • Significant effect only for age >11
  • Significant effect only for males (surprising; I expected the reverse due to menstruation)
  • Significant effect only for higher-dose, longer-duration
  • Significant effect even if non-anemic (surprising)

I thought anemia is not necessarily corellated with amount of iron - you can have a normal blood count, but be iron deficient, hense a separate test for iron?
