    Objective: To determine the factors related to anemia in infants under 1 year old at the Churin Health Center from 2019 to 2023. Materials and Methods: A basic, correlational, retrospective, and cross-sectional study covering a population of 105 medical records of children under 1 year old treated at the Churin Health Center from 2019 to 2023. Results: The study revealed significant associations in various factors. In maternal factors, gestational age at birth showed a significant relationship with the severity of anemia (p < 0.001), as did the number of children the mother had (p < 0.001). In neonatal factors, birth weight exhibited a significant association with the severity of anemia (p < 0.001), as did the duration of exclusive breastfeeding (p < 0.001). Regarding nutritional factors, the administration of micronutrient supplements (p < 0.001), the nutritional status of the child (p < 0.001), and the consumption of animal-origin foods (p < 0.001) were significantly associated with the severity of anemia. Conclusions: This study highlights the complexity of anemia in infants under 1 year old, identifying significant associations between various maternal, neonatal, and nutritional factors with the severity of anemia. These findings underscore the need for integrated and personalized approaches to effectively address anemia in this vulnerable population.
