Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional disorder in the world, the most widespread form of anemia and the most frequent in children. In the presence of microcytic anemia, evidence of an iron deficiency (transferrin saturation index <10% and ferritin <12 mg/l) allows the diagnosis. An increase in requests and a reduced income are the most common causes in early childhood and adolescence. It is essential to ensure that the disorder is corrected at the end of therapy, in order to exclude rarer causes of iron deficiency. A correct diagnosisi and therapy are also essential to guarantee patients so to spare additional costs and stress for the whole family.

Adults on the autism spectrum, despite having received intervention throughout their childhood and adolescence, continue to experience challenges with everyday social interactions, forming and maintaining relationships, and social abilities needed in work settings. This article presents a case example of a 22-year-old adult with Asperger syndrome, and highlights the issues in providing intervention for highly able young adults on the autism spectrum. A unique feature of this report is the inclusion of the client's own insights into his experiences, perspectives, and challenges with the intervention. The approaches used to address his social communication and organizational needs are outlined, and clinical implications discussed.
