Abstract

Objective The prevalence of anemia has remained high among Indian adolescent girls over the past decade, despite the ongoing iron and folic acid (IFA) supplementation program. This study was conducted to assess the impact of daily supplementation of a package of IFA with vitamin B.sub.12 on hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls. Methods A community-based cluster-randomized trial was conducted in the rural block of Faridabad District, Haryana, India in the year 2017. A total of 760 adolescent girls in the age group of 12-19 years with mild and moderate anemia were selected from government schools. Daily-supervised administration of iron and folic acid was conducted for 90 days: experimental group--IFA (iron (60 mg), folic acid (500) mcg), and cyanocobalamin (1000 mcg), control group--IFA and placebo. Hemoglobin, serum ferritin, and vitamin B.sub.12 levels were assessed at baseline and endline. Results Two-hundred adolescent girls completed 90 doses of daily supplementation. The mean hemoglobin (experimental group: 1.3 [plus or minus] 1.0 g/dL, control group: 1.6 [plus or minus] 1.2 g/dL, P = 0.004) and ferritin levels (experimental group: 18.6 [plus or minus] 31.5 ng/mL, control group: 18.8 [plus or minus] 35.0 ng/mL, P = 0.188) increased in both the control and experiment groups. Serum vitamin B.sub.12 deficiency significantly reduced to 2.5% in the experimental group and ferritin deficiency alleviated in more than 96% of the girls post intervention. Conclusions Daily supplementation of IFA with/without vitamin B.sub.12 for 90 days eliminated iron, vitamin B.sub.12 deficiency and reduced the overall proportion of anemia by 53.5%. However, addition of vitamin B.sub.12 to IFA supplementation had no impact on improving the hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls. The present study does not recommend provision of vitamin B.sub.12 for prevention and treatment of anemia in this population group., Author(s): Aakriti Gupta [sup.1] , Shashi Kant [sup.2] , Lakshmy Ramakrishnan [sup.3] , Ravindra Mohan Pandey [sup.4] , Ritika Khandelwal [sup.1] , Umesh Kapil [sup.1] , Harshpal Singh Sachdev [sup.5] [...]

10. Intraindividual double-burden of anthropometric undernutrition and 'metabolic obesity' in Indian children: a paradox that needs action

Abstract

Background Intra-individual coexistence of anthropometrically defined undernutrition and 'metabolic obesity', characterised by presence of at least one abnormal cardiometabolic risk factor, is rarely investigated in young children and adolescents, particularly in Low-and-Middle-Income-Countries undergoing rapid nutrition transition. Methods Prevalence of biomarkers of metabolic obesity was related to anthropometric and socio-demographic characteristics in 5-19 years old participants from the population-based Comprehensive National Nutrition Survey in India (2016-2018). The biomarkers, serum lipid-profile (total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and triglycerides), fasting glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), and all jointly were analysed in 22567, 23192, 25962 and 19143 participants, respectively. Results Overall (entire dataset), the prevalence of abnormalities was low (4.3-4.5%) for LDL and TC, intermediate for dysglycemia (10.9-16.1%), and high for HDL and triglycerides (21.7-25.8%). Proportions with [greater than or equal to]1 abnormal metabolic obesity biomarker(s) were 56.2% overall, 54.2% in thin (BMI-for-age < -2 SD) and 59.3% in stunted (height-for-age < -2 SD) participants. Comparable prevalence was evident in mild undernutrition (-1 to -2 SD). Clustering of two borderline abnormalities occurred in one-third, warranting active life-style interventions. Metabolic obesity prevalence increased with BMI-for-age. Among those with metabolic obesity, only 9% were overweight/obese (>1 SD BMI-for-age). Among poor participants, triglyceride, glucose and HDL abnormalities were higher. Conclusions A paradoxical, counter-intuitive prevalence of metabolic obesity biomarker(s) exists in over half of anthropometrically undernourished and normal-weight Indian children and adolescents. There is a crucial need for commensurate investments to address overnutrition along with undernutrition. Nutritional status should be characterized through additional reliable biomarkers, instead of anthropometry alone., Author(s): Harshpal Singh Sachdev [sup.1] , Akash Porwal [sup.2] , Avina Sarna [sup.2] , Rajib Acharya [sup.2] , Sowmya Ramesh [sup.2] , Umesh Kapil [sup.3] , Anura V.

Abstract

Iodine deficiency (ID) is the world′s single most important preventable cause of brain damage and mental retardation. Iodine deficiency disorders (IDDs) is a public health problem in 130 countries, affecting 13% of the world population. The simplest solution to prevent the IDD is to consume iodized common salt every day. In India, significant progress has been achieved toward elimination of IDD, in the last 30 years. Satisfactory levels of urinary iodine excretion and iodine content of salt have been documented by the research surveys conducted by research scientists. The results indicate that we are progressing toward elimination of IDD. IDD is due to a nutritional deficiency, which is prima-rily that of iodine, in soil and water. IDD is known to re-appear if the IDD Control Program is not sustained. To ensure that the population continues to have intake of adequate amount of iodine, there is a need of i) periodic surveys to assess the magnitude of the IDD with respect to impact of iodized salt (IS) intervention; ii) strengthening the health and nutrition education activities to create demand for IS and iii) development of a monitoring information system (MIS) for ensuring that the adequately IS is available to the beneficiaries.
