Abstract:
Objective To know the contents and changes situation of trace elements among children aged 0-6 years old in Chengdu are‐a .Methods The BH5100T atomic absorption spectrometry was adopted to detect the levels of trace elements Cu ,Zn ,Ca ,Mg ,Fe in 786 children aged 0-6 years old undergoing the physical examination in our hospital from April 2015 to November 2015 .The detection results were statistically analyzed .Results The deficiency rates of Cu ,Zn ,Ca ,Mg and Fe in Chengdu area were 0 .4% ,5 .0% ,18 .1% ,9 .5% and 8 .3% respectively ,in which the deficiency rates of Ca in children aged <1 ,1 ,2 ,3 ,≥ 4 years old were 47 .4% ,27 .5% ,12 .6% ,9 .9% and 11 .9% respectively ,indicating that the Ca deficiency rate in children < 1 years old was higher .The Ca deficiency rate had statistical differ‐ence among different age groups(P<0 .05) ,and there were no statistically significant differences in the deficiency rates of several trace ele‐ments among different age groups of male and female children .Conclusion The abnormality rate of trace elements among children aged 0-6 years old in Chengdu area is higher ,in which the Ca deficiency rate is highest ,meanwhile the Mg and Fe were lack too .The trace element content in children is closely related with the feeding habit .The 0-6 years old children in this area should pay attention to the supplement of trace elements ,especially supplement of Ca ,meanw hile breastfeeding is advocated .
