Influence of Vitamin A Status on the Choice of Sampling Time for Application of the Retinol Isotope Dilution Method in Theoretical Children

Vitamin A status may influence the choice of a blood sampling time for applying the retinol isotope dilution (RID) equation to predict vitamin A total body stores (TBS) in children. We aimed to identify time(s) after administration of labeled vitamin A that provide accurate estimates of TBS in theor...

Zusammenfassung:Vitamin A status may influence the choice of a blood sampling time for applying the retinol isotope dilution (RID) equation to predict vitamin A total body stores (TBS) in children. We aimed to identify time(s) after administration of labeled vitamin A that provide accurate estimates of TBS in theoretical children with low or high TBS. We postulated 2- to 5-y-old children (12/group) with low (
