Özet

Iron deficiency in older people is common and affects physical and cognitive performance. The effects of iron deficiency on nutrition and cognitive status are well established. However, there are few studies demonstrating the impact of iron deficiency treatment on functional and cognitive outcomes in the geriatric population. The aim of this study was to determine whether iron replacement treatment was associated with an improvement in the nutritional, cognitive, and functional status of older patients with iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA).
