Statistics on the outlook for a certain type and stage of cancer are often given as 5-year survival rates, but many people live longer â often much longer â than 5 years. The 5-year survival rate is the percentage of people who live at least 5 years after being diagnosed with cancer. For example, a 5-year survival rate of 90% means that an estimated 90 out of 100 people who have that cancer are still alive 5 years after being diagnosed. Keep in mind, however, that many of these people live much longer than 5 years after diagnosis.
Iron Deficiency Anemia. Iron deficiency anemia is the most common type of anemia. It accounts for approximately 50-percent of the diagnosed cases of anemia. Iron deficiency anemia can result from inadequate iron intake, decreased iron absorption, increased iron demand, or increased iron loss.
