Factors that influence anemia prevalence: a comparative study of datasets from Russia and South Africa
The comparison of socio-economic factors influencing the prevalence of anemia between Russian and South African samples has validated self-assessments as a reliable proxy for health status in the context of Russia. This methodological advancement underpins current and future research based on the extensive database of the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey, encompassing approximately 2,500 indicators, to investigate disease prevalence.
