  • Equity is More Than Talk: Move 2024 Meeting

First “eliminating race-based medicine” sounds too similar to the Supreme Court announcement that “race blind” is the goal. That does not address the needs of minoritized families and communities.

Treatment of Iron Deficiency in Infants, Children and Adolescents, Built Environmental Factors Linked to Fatal Motor Vehicle Collisions Among U.S. Children – Ep. 300
Q: And what are the first steps you should take to treat it once iron deficiency or iron deficiency anemia is diagnosed?
The main steps are to identify and address the underlying cause of iron deficiency, often dietary, and to begin iron therapy at an appropriate dose, typically three milligrams per kilogram of elemental iron daily, while monitoring for tolerability and response.
Treatment of Iron Deficiency in Infants, Children and Adolescents, Built Environmental Factors Linked to Fatal Motor Vehicle Collisions Among U.S. Children – Ep. 300
Q: So before we get into the clinical report, can you just review for us what iron deficiency is?
Iron deficiency is a state where the body's iron stores are insufficient to support essential physiological processes, and it can progress to iron deficiency anemia if not identified and treated early.
Pediatrics Research Roundup, Messaging About Vitamin K – Ep. 298
Q: What is the key takeaway for conversations about vitamin K against a backdrop of broader vaccine and preventive care skepticism?

Pediatrics Research Roundup, Messaging About Vitamin K – Ep. 298
Q: What should clinicians tell families who worry about preservatives or allergy risks in the vitamin K shot?

Clinicians report a notable increase in families choosing not to receive vitamin K, with a hospital center example showing about 1 in 50 babies declining, which is alarming given the long-standing recommendation.
