Description
Summary:Optimal oral iron supplementation strategy is unclear in patients with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) who have either normal kidney function (NKF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD). To investigate the association of different oral iron supplementation strategies with the change in hemoglobin and iron indices among patients with IDA with either NKF or CKD. This retrospective cohort study was conducted between 2009 and 2019 at nationwide Veterans Health Administration facilities. Eligible participants included veterans with IDA (defined as hemoglobin
