INFLAMMATION
A contracted phlebotomist collected blood from a subsample of infants at the baseline and the endline, which was chosen using a randomization procedure to assess changes in hemoglobin and ferritin concentrations. Ferritin concentration reflects iron stores and hemoglobin concentration measures the red blood cell supply and is affected by multiple determinants. Acute phase proteins C-reactive protein and alpha-1 acid glycoprotein were assayed and used to correct ferritin for the effects of inflammation [
