Blood safety and availability: continuing challenges in China's blood banking system.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Due to physiological demands, children and premenopausal women are at risk of developing iron deficiency. In premenopausal women, the risk may be further increased by repeated whole blood donations. Short-term consequences of iron deficiency in infancy include impaired cognitive development and lower IQ scor...
