Abstract
Objective: To investigate associations between different socio-demographic factors with Panduroga w.s.r. to iron deficiency anaemia. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional study, with 29 diagnosed cases of iron deficiency anaemia. This study was conducted at the Govt. Ayu. College & Hospital, Patna, Bihar, India. Informed consent was taken from all patients for their blood tests, research study and its publication in a scientific journal. A questionnaire was administered to them regarding subjective parameters. The data was analyzed statistically. Results: Iron deficiency anaemia was found more common among female patients (82.76 %) than male patients. People living in urban population (55.17 %), low socio-economical status (51.72 %), educated up to school level (41.38 %) followed by illiterate (24.14 %) were more affected. IDA was more common among tobacco consumers (13.79 %) compare to smokers (6.90 %) and alcoholics (3.45 %). Conclusion: This study showed that lack of education, addiction and low socio-economic status are associated with the development of Panduroga. Females are more affected compare to male and urban population is more affected than rural population. It is a global public health problem affecting both developing and developed countries with major consequences for human health as well as social and economic development.
