Objective To understand the serum vitamin A, iron, and zinc status of infants aged 0~18 months in rural arear of Shaanxi province, and the relation with Hb. Method Hb and serum vitamin A, iron, zinc were detected in 336 infants, and the content of which were compared between the anemic children and the normal children. Results The deficiency rate of serum vitamin A, iron, and zinc were 67.27%, 29.1% and 90.9%, respectively.The average content of serum vitamin A, iron, and zinc in anemic group (0.54 μmol/L, 881.21 μg/L, 610.01 μg/L) were lower than those of control group(0.81 μmol/L, 1 227.93 μg/L, 679.40 μg/L), and there were statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion The deficiency of serum vitamin A, iron, and zinc are serious in rural area of Shaanxi province.The contents of serum iron and zinc are positively associated with hemoglobin concentration.
