Abstract in brief

  • The study found that nonanaemic iron deficiency (NAID) is quite common among older adults in England, with prevalence rates of about 8.8% in women and 6.3% in men, and it is linked to a higher risk of death over a 14-year period.
  • The research showed that older adults with NAID had a 58% higher risk of mortality compared to those without iron deficiency, even after accounting for other factors like age, health status, and demographics.
  • The increased risk of death was mainly observed in women with NAID, indicating that iron deficiency without anemia may have significant health implications, especially for older women.]
