title: [Plasmatic levels of gastrin in children under seven years (author's transl)].
abstract: Gastrinemia was determined in 100 healthy children whose ages ranged from three months to seven years, who were separated in three groups: from three months to two years, from two to four years, determining the gastrin by radioinmunoassay twice in each case. As no significant difference was found among the three groups, total results were grouped together to confect a graph ranging from the 5th to the 95th percentile. Average percentage of gastrinemia was determined at 76.81 pcg./ml. (50 percentile), with extreme values between 48.31 pcg./ml. (5th percentile) and 105.31 pcg./ml. (95th percentile).
