Impact of second trimester iron deficiency on maternal and infant outcomes: A Danish cohort study
Despite recommended iron supplements from 10 weeks gestation, ID was frequent among pregnant Danish women in the second trimester and associated with accelerated placental and infant growth, but not adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study indicates that the clinical relevance of the current cut-off level for ID in the second trimester of pregnancy among pregnant Danish women needs further investigation.
