  • Title: [A comparative study of vitamin status of children 5-6 years of age in different children's institutions].
    Author: Kerimova MG, Alieva LM, Aleskerova IR.
    Journal: Vopr Pitan; 1992; (3):30-2. PubMed ID: 1514270.
    Abstract:
    A total of 205 children were under observation (48 children aged 1.5-3 years in a Baby's Home--spring, 1987; 85 children aged 3-6 years in nurseries with 24-hour stay--spring, 1987; 77 children aged 3-6 years in a Children's Home--spring, 1989). As a result of nutrition reorganization in these institutions vitamin consumption increased due to a more rational selection of food products and the vitamin status of children improved. This was more expressed in vitamin excretion levels, than in the incidence rate of microsymptoms of vitamin deficiency. Additional vitaminization with multivitamin compounds is necessary to eliminate vitamin deficiency in preschool children of isolated institutions.
