title: [An evaluation of vitamin A status based on the measurement of retinol in the serum of children and infants].
abstract: A statistical comparison of serum vitamin A content among groups of children of various age ranges, revealed a much lower vitamin A level in infants (p < 0.001). The possibility of vitamin A deficiency among ill infants points to the necessity of supplementation with this vitamin.
