IDA prevalence was significantly higher than published National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III (NHANES III) estimates for gender-specific age groups \u2265 70 years (One-Sample Proportion Test; males p = 0.038 [n= 37]; females p = 0.002 [n=44]). A comparison of IDA prevalence against selected controls from the NHANES III database yielded an odds ratio (OR) of 6.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.8 to 53.7, which was not statistically significant (Fisher's Exact Test; n=94; p = 0.118). Multivariate linear regression analysis of dietary intake with indicators of iron status (n=58) revealed only iron supplements (p = 0.013) and heme iron intake (p = 0.038) as negative predictors of total iron binding capacity (p&lt;0.05).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0317167100013214_abs4\"><jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title><jats:p>These findings support the initiation of a prospective case control study to investigate IDA as a risk factor for ischemic stroke in elderly patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0317167100013214","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,12]],"date-time":"2014-12-12T15:03:35Z","timestamp":1418396615000},"page":"189-195","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Iron Deficiency Anemia Prevalence at First Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Melanie D.","family":"Dubyk","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert T.","family":"Card","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Susan J.","family":"Whiting","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carol A.
