Title: Riboflavin deficiency in Madang infants. Author: Oppenheimer SJ, Bull R, Thurnham DI. Journal: P N G Med J; 1983 Mar; 26(1):17-20. PubMed ID: 6585094.

It is suggested that pregnant and lactating women in this area may be deficient, and that riboflavin deficiency may protect infants against malaria.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
