Abstract:
RBC, plasma and hair Mn levels have been measured in 38 children with Keshan disease from the Chuxiong district of Yunan province and were compared with that of 35 healthy children. After logarithmic, transformation, normal distribution of Mn levels of RBC, plasma and hair had been presented. The geometric means of the RBC, plasma and hair Mn content of the patients were 1.22?g/g(dry basis), 0.16?g/ml and 8.76?g/g respectively. In normal subjects, the means of RBC, plasma and hair Mn were found to be 0.59?g/g (dry basis), 0.13?g/ml and 2.57?g/g. The children with Keshan disease had higher Mn levels than controls. (P
