Аннотация
BACKGROUND: In India, anemia remains a serious public health issue, particularly for women of reproductive age.
OBJECTIVES: This study compared anemia prevalence from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4) (2015-2016) and NFHS-5 (2019-2021), examining the influence of sociodemographic factors.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Using NFHS data, 684,911 women from NFHS-4 and 690,153 women from NFHS-5 were analyzed. Bivariate and logistic regression analyses assessed anemia prevalence; the Wald test compared urban-rural patterns.
RESULTS: Anemia prevalence increased from 51.4% to 56.2%. The highest prevalence were found among adolescents (15-19 years). Women in rural areas, with no education, from the poorest wealth quintile, and widowed women had significantly higher odds of being anemic.
CONCLUSION: The rising anemia burden, particularly among adolescents and disadvantaged groups, highlights the need for targeted, multisectoral public health strategies in India.
