Venn diagrams representing the overlapping prevalence of anemia, zinc deficiency, and low ferritin among 18,331 PSC (A) and 22,263 nonpregnant women of childbearing age (B) from a pooled analysis of representative surveys, the BRINDA project. Low ferritin was defined as inflammation-adjusted ferritin concentration <12 μg/L for children and <15 μg/L for women [using BRINDA, Namaste et al. (23)]. Zinc deficiency was defined as inflammation-adjusted serum zinc <65 μg/dL (morning collection) of <57 μg/dL (afternoon collection) for PSC [using BRINDA, McDonald et al. (14)]. and in nonpregnant women, zinc deficiency was not inflammation adjusted and the cutoffs were <70 μg/dL, <66 μg/dL, or <50 μg/dL for morning collection in a fasting state, morning collection in a nonfasting state, or afternoon collection in a nonfasting state, respectively.
