Figure 1 shows the distribution. The prevalence of zinc deficiency according to the IZiNCG definition was 84% (61/72; 95% CI = 76–93%). Mean albumin, ferritin, and hemoglobin levels (and SD, in brackets) were 42.9 (2.1) g/L, 77.1 (76.3) μg/L, and 125.6 (12.2) g/L, respectively; 29% of women had anemia according to the WHO criteria, and 39% had low ferritin levels (below 30 μg/L) (20). The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is anemia.
