Prevalence and determinants of anemia among pregnant women attending maternal and child health clinics at Sukuta Health Center, The Gambia: An institutional-based cross-sectional study

Despite the lower prevalence of anemia, there remains a need for improved comprehensive understanding and prevention practices. The significant association between husbands' occupation and anemia status highlights the importance of considering household economic factors in anemia prevention. There is a need to design culturally tailored interventions targeting larger, resource-constrained Muslim households to effectively address anemia during pregnancy.

Abstract

Despite the lower prevalence of anemia, there remains a need for improved comprehensive understanding and prevention practices. The significant association between husbands' occupation and anemia status highlights the importance of considering household economic factors in anemia prevention. There is a need to design culturally tailored interventions targeting larger, resource-constrained Muslim households to effectively address anemia during pregnancy.
