title: [The incidence of anemia in the Slovak population].
abstract: The authors examined in two diagnostic preventive systems a total of 26,620 asymptomatic people in the district. The total number comprised 15,511 women (58.3%) and 12,109 men (41.7%) above 15 years of age. In the group of women anaemia was recorded in 4.1% and in men only in 0.19%. The highest incidence was in women and men in the age bracket from 15 to 19 years and above 70 years (girls 11.5% and boys 1.27%). Sideropenic anaemias accounted for 91.9% in women and 60.8% in men. Macroerythrocytic anaemia in men (13.1%) is associated with chronic alcohol intake.
