[Blood serum insulin concentration in children with protein-calorie malnutrition].
Fasting blood serum insulin, glucose and K+ ions concentrations were estimated in 50 children with protein calorie malnutrition. These children were born with the normal body weight or with symptoms of intrauterine dystrophy. 40 healthy children of the same age, with normal chronologic body weight were included into the control group. The results of IRI, glucose and K+ ions concentrations were evaluated statistically by Student's t test. The statistically significant lowering of the IRI level and statistically insignificant lowering in glucose and K+ ions concentrations were found in children with malnutrition if compared to control group.
