Valeria Galetti: Understanding the Root Causes of Anemia in Madagascar
Valeria Galetti, Clinical trial and data analysis associate at GroundWork, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in The Lancet Regional Health, adding:
“New paper out!!
Behind every anemia estimate lies a different story.
Reducing anemia effectively requires more than knowing how many people are affected.
It requires understanding why anaemia occurs in different groups and places.
We are pleased to share our new publication in The Lancet Regional Health – Africa, using data from Madagascar’s 2024 National Survey on Micronutrient Deficiencies.”
