The Impact of Iron Deficiency Anemia on Immunological Parameters in Young Children and Approaches to Its Correction

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This study investigates the impact of iron deficiency anemia on immune system function in young children, focusing on changes in immunological parameters and approaches to their correction. Iron deficiency not only impairs hemoglobin synthesis but may also negatively affect cellular and humoral immunity. The study analyzes hemoglobin levels, erythrocyte counts, ferritin, serum iron, immunoglobulins (IgA, IgM, IgG), lymphocyte subpopulations, and inflammatory markers. Particular attention is given to assessing the relationship between the severity of iron deficiency anemia and the degree of immunological disturbances. Based on the findings, the study explores the rational use of iron supplements, optimization of dietary intake, and development of individualized therapeutic and preventive measures. This research aims to improve the early diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia, correct associated immunological disturbances, and enhance treatment effectiveness in young children.
