Analysis of Whole Blood Microelements in Rrickets Infants
Objective To provide evidence for rickets diagnosing and prevention in clinical by exploring the deficiency of microelements in rickets infants. Methods 150 cases of rickets infants and 150 healthy control col ected from January 2013 to December 2013 were designed as case and control group; the deficiency of microelements in rickets infants were analyzed by comparing the level of them in the whole blood samples of the two groups. Results The level of Ca (1.75±0.12) and Zn (89.72±18.17) in case group were significantly lower than those in control group (Ca 1.90±0.09, Zn 95.39±21.16) (P<0.05), with no statistical differences in the content of Mg, Cu and Fe. The deficiency of Fe exited in both two groups (16.7% and 19.3%, respectively). Conclusion The detection of Ca and Zn were worthy of reference for the early diagnosis of rickets, while the final diagnosis stil need to be combined with clinic; Portion of infants in Suzhou were lack of Fe, and timely supplyment should be given.
