Small bowel changes in iron-deficiency anaemia of childhood.

چکیده
The function and structure of the small intestine in iron-deficiency anaemia has been studied in adults with conflicting results (Rawson and Rosenthal, 1960; Vartio, 1962; Halsted, Prasad, and Nadimi, 1965; Saha, Chatterjea, and Chaudhuri, 1965). Only one group of workers has studied this problem in infancy and early childhood (Naiman et al., 1964). We here record our observations on small intestinal structure and function in children aged 4-12 years.
