Objective To assess the burden of dietary iron deficiency in Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, focusing on prevalence years lived with disability (YLD) 2021 their changes since 1990. Methods Data from Global Burden Disease (GBD) study were utilised to report counts age-standardised rates for YLD related deficiency. All estimates accompanied by 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). Results In 2021, MENA region was 14368.2 per 100,000, representing a 26% decline The highest observed Yemen (30146.5), Sudan (19296.9), Morocco (15,303) 100,000 population. Prevalence notably among children under 5 old women reproductive age, gradual older age groups. greatest reductions seen groups, indicating an age-related downward trend 1990 2021. Conclusion Despite some improvements, remains significant public health concern particularly countries lower socio-demographic indices (SDI). Targeted interventions are essential, especially vulnerable groups such as women.

This study investigates the potential to reduce recommended mineral nitrogen dose (NRD) for wheat without compromising yield by utilizing zeolite amendment and potassium silicate spraying. The experiment included main plot treatments of 100%, 80%, 60% NRD (ammonium nitrate, 33%N). Subplots incorporated at a rate 1.2 ton fed-1 (applied or not), sub-subplots involved spraying 0.0, 750, 1000 mg L-1. Key measurements plant height, fresh dry weights, leaf area, chlorophyll content, grain straw yield, carbohydrates, protein soil NPK levels. Results demonstrated that applying with 80% mg/L outperformed traditional 100% application in terms growth parameters. Additionally, significantly enhanced availability. These findings suggest reducing when combined can maintain even improve productivity while enhancing fertility. Generally, integrating amendments optimal effectively fertilizer usage yield. Future research should focus on long-term impacts economic feasibility this approach.
