Effectiveness of consuming iron-fortified rice to correct micronutrient deficiencies in children aged 6 to 59 months
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-12-16) Arias Cuenca, Sandra Vanessa; Lopez Diaz, Evelyn Yesenia Stephanie; Bonilla Asalde, César Antonio
Objective: To systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of consuming iron-fortified rice to correct micronutrient deficiencies in children aged 6 to 59 months. Materials and Methods: A systematic, observational, and retrospective review synthesizing the results of multiple primary studies. The search was limited to full-text articles, and the selected articles underwent critical reading, using the GRADE system to assign the strength of recommendations. Results: In the final selection, 10 articles were chosen, with 30% (3) from studies conducted in Brazil, 40% (4) from studies in Thailand and the United States, and 10% (1) from studies in Peru, India, and China, respectively. Conclusions: 90% of the analyzed articles confirm the effectiveness of consuming fortified rice to correct micronutrient or trace element deficiencies in children aged 6 to 59 months. With timely intervention from the health sector, combined with nursing interventions on the topic, developmental disorders and childhood anemia can be corrected.

Effectiveness of fortification of food with iron for the prevention of anemia in children from 6 months to 5 years old
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-12-01) Gutierrez Peña, Rosario Isabel; Gómez Vásquez, Gabriela Mercedes; Cárdenas de Fernández, María Hilda
Objective: Review the evidence on the effectiveness of iron-fortified foods for the prevention of anemia in children aged 6 months to 5 years. Materials and Methods: Systematic review and randomized controlled trial, subject to analytical classification, using a Grade assessment system for certainty agreement, found in the following references: Pubmed, Redalyc, Cochrane, Bvs, Trip Database, Lipecs, Lilacs, Scielo. Of the 10 articles systematically reviewed, 20% (2/10) were randomized trials, 10% (1/10) were quasi-experimental, 10% (1/10) were applied experimental, 20% (2/10) were clinical trials, and 40% (4/10) were systematic reviews. According to the products obtained from the systematic review conducted in this study, derived from the countries of Israel, Colombia, Switzerland, Indonesia, Peru, Pakistan, Brazil, and Mexico. Results: Similarly, all of the evidence found, 100% (n=10/10), indicate that iron-fortified foods are more effective in preventing anemia. Conclusion: Iron fortification of foods is effective for the prevention of anemia in children aged 6 months to 5 years.

Effectiveness of the time of consumption of food supplements with iron in the prevention of anemia in children under 5 years of age.
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-07-08) Vivanco Huarcaya, Yanet; Bonilla Asalde, César Antonio
Objective: Analyze the evidence regarding the effectiveness of the consumption time of iron-containing dietary supplements of 6 months or less in preventing anemia in children under 5 years old. Methodology: Systematic observational and retrospective review, the search was limited to full-text articles, and they were analyzed after a critical reading. Ten articles from the years 2009 to 2017 were selected; randomized clinical trials, quasi-experimental, and cross-sectional studies were included to evaluate the reduction in the incidence of anemia with iron-containing dietary supplements. Results: Ten articles were selected, which show improvements in hemoglobin levels during different supplementation periods, demonstrating a decrease in the prevalence of anemia. Conclusions: The studies executed show a better increase in hemoglobin levels within a 6-month period. It is inferred that longer durations result in lower adherence to the product, making it difficult to comply with the recommended regimen. Similarly, it is challenging to monitor the child’s supplementation by health staff due to the prolonged duration; and finally, it is associated with dropout rates in children, causing the prevalence of anemia to remain unchanged.

Effectiveness of using foods and beverages fortified with multiple micronutrients to reduce anemia in children
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-08-26) Chuckon Pinedo, Jhosselyng Claudia; Villavicencio Del Aguila, Andrea Cristina; Matta Solis, Hernán Hugo
Objective: To systematically analyze the evidence on the effectiveness of the use of foods and beverages fortified with multiple micronutrients to reduce anemia in children. Material and Method: The systematic review of the 10 scientific articles identified by degree of evidence according to Grade found on the effectiveness of the use of foods and beverages fortified with multiple micronutrients for the reduction of anemia in children, were found in the Cochrane databases. Scielo, Medline, Pubmed. The articles reviewed are from: Ivory Coast 10%, Brazil 10%, China 10%, Cambodia 10%, Vietnam 10%, Republic of Mali 10%, United Kingdom 10%, Philippines 10% and India 10%. Results : Of the 10 articles reviewed, 90% (9/10) correspond to the randomized methodological design and the 10% (1/10) to systematic review. Of the 10 articles systematically reviewed, 70% (7/10) evidence the effectiveness of the use of foods and beverages fortified with multiple micronutrients to reduce anemia in children. Conclusion: It is concluded that the fortification of foods and beverages with multiple micronutrients is effective for reducing anemia in children.
