Trend and determinants of anaemia among reproductive-age women in Tanzania (2004/05-2022): a modified poisson regression analysis of demographic and health survey
The findings demonstrate anaemia as both a clinical and public health challenge, requiring multi-sectoral approaches. The persistent associations across demographic, socioeconomic, and reproductive domains suggest that singular interventions are unlikely to address this prevalence sufficiently. Reducing the burden of anaemia will require coordinated efforts across clinical care, public health programming, and social policy to address both immediate nutritional needs and underlying determinants.
