Abstract

Background: Information on the hemoglobin status of pregnant and lactating mothers was scarce. The objectives of this study were to determine the burden and determinants of anemia in the pregnant and lactating mother.

Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted. Descriptive statistics were used to identify the prevalence of anemia. Binary logistic regression and multiple linear regressions were used to identify the predictors of anemia.

Results: The prevalence of anemia in lactating and pregnant women was 43.00% (95% CI {confidence interval}, 41% - 45%) and 84% of anemia was microcytic and hypocromic anemia. Anemia in lactating and pregnant women was positively associated with malaria infection [AOR{adjusted odds ratio} 3.61 (95% CI: 2.63-4.95)], abortion [AOR 6.63 (95% CI: 3.23-13.6)], hookworm infection [AOR 3.37 (95% CI: 2.33-4.88)], tea consumption [AOR 3.63 (95% CI: 2.56-5.14)], pregnancy [AOR 2.24 (95% CI: 1.57-3.12)], and Mid-upper arm circumference [ B 0.36 (95% CI: 0.33, -0.4)]. Anemia in pregnant and lactating mother was negatively associated with urban residence [AOR 0.68, (95% CI: 0.5-0.94)], iron supplementation during pregnancy [AOR 0.03 (95% CI, 0.02-0.04)], parity [ B -0.18 (95% CI: -0.23, -0.14)], age [B -0.03 (95% CI: -0.04, -0.03)].

Conclusion: The burden of anemia was higher in pregnant women than lactating women.

孕妇比哺乳期的母亲更容易贫血，一项比较横断面研究，巴希尔达尔，埃塞俄比亚。

背景:关于孕妇和哺乳期母亲血红蛋白状态的信息很少。本研究的目的是确定孕妇和哺乳期母亲贫血的负担和决定因素。方法:采用比较横断面研究。描述性统计用于确定贫血的患病率。采用二元logistic回归和多元线性回归来确定贫血的预测因素。结果:哺乳期和孕期妇女贫血的患病率为43.00% (95% CI{可信区间}，41% ~ 45%)，84%的贫血为小细胞性和低红细胞性贫血。哺乳期和孕妇贫血与疟疾感染[AOR{调整比值比}3.61 (95% CI: 2.63-4.95)]、流产[AOR 6.63 (95% CI: 3.23-13.6)]、钩虫感染[AOR 3.37 (95% CI: 2.33-4.88)]、饮茶[AOR 3.63 (95% CI: 2.56-5.14)]、妊娠[AOR 2.24 (95% CI: 1.57-3.12)]和中上臂围[AOR 0.36 (95% CI: 0.33， -0.4)]呈正相关。孕妇和哺乳期母亲贫血与城市居住[AOR 0.68， (95% CI: 0.5-0.94)]、孕期补铁[AOR 0.03 (95% CI: 0.02-0.04)]、胎次[B -0.18 (95% CI: -0.23， -0.14)]、年龄[B -0.03 (95% CI: -0.04， -0.03)]呈负相关。结论:妊娠妇女的贫血负担高于哺乳期妇女。
