| Abstract | ||||
| The objectives of this study were estimate of some Hematological and Biochemical values and prevalence of iron deficiency among some Adolescent Girls .The total sample included 489 female's student aged between 12-17 years was chosen randomly from the middle schools in Gazan in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for: 1. Study the nutritional status including evaluation daily food intake. 2. Laboratory investigations including evaluation level of iron, feriten, hemoglobin, hematocrit and red blood cells. The results indicate: Data presented that the mean intake of protein, fat, carbohydrate, calcium, phosphor and iron were less than recommended daily allowance for this sample. Also the mean intake of energy was very less than recommended daily allowance. The amount of vitamins also less than recommended daily allowance except niacin and vitamin C were more than recommended daily allowance. The results showed that there was a high significant between the amount of calorie intake and red blood cells, hemoglobin and hematocrit also, was a high significant between the amount of protein intake and red blood cells, hemoglobin and hematocrit .There was a significant relationship between copper and hemoglobin, hematocrit and serum iron. There was a significant relationship between phosphor and red blood cells, hemoglobin and hematocrit. There was a significant relationship between vitamin A, hemoglobin and hematocrit. There was a significant relationship between vitamin 812, red blood cells and hemoglobin. Data of laboratory analysis showed that the means of hemoglobin for patients and non patients were 11.0±1.2 and 13.0±0.69 respectively. The mean percent of hematocrit was 33.48±3.19 for patients' girls than 38.00±1.S8 for non patient girls .The mean iron serum for all patients was 1 O.80±S.67 than 15.7±5.29 for non patients. The average ferritin content for all patients was 12.80±2.02 than 28.6±14.89 for non patients .The results showed also that 8% of sample under study had hemoglobin percent from 90-100% and the rest had hemoglobin percent less than 90 %. Results of laboratory analysis showed that 73.40% from age suffered from anemia than 26.60%. The percent of prevalence of anemia was 56.4%as a result of decrease hemoglobin, 59.9% as a result of decrease hematocrit, 69.5% as a result of decrease red blood cell, 73.4% as a result of decrease cont of iron in blood and 47.8% as a result of decrees content of ferritin in blood. The results showed that there was significant relationship between the age and the prevalence of anemia. | ||||
