Trace Elements and Epidemiology.

In the one hundred years since the birthday of Academician W. J. Vernadsky, in whose honour this Geochemical Conference is being held, the population of our world has grown from about 1,250 million to not far short of 3,150 million, an addition of some 1,900 million persons. Thus, there are approximately two and one half times as many people in the world today as there were when Academician Ver...

Trace Elements

Trace elements occur in the human and animal body in milligrams per kilograms amount or less as against major elements which occur in gram per kg.essential elements are elements required for lifewhose deficient intake results in impairment of vital functions and only intake of physiologic amounts of the element can alleviate or prevent such a disturbance in function. Certain T.Es exists in the ...

Evaluation of Trace Elements and Antioxidants in Pre and Post Hemodialysis of Chronic Renal Failure Patients

Oxidative stress is related to several diseases, including chronic renal insufficiency. The lipid peroxidation in hemolysis patients may be partly due to the trace elements disturbances. It has been mentioned that during hemolysis there are relations between deficiency in trace elements and antioxidant levels. The present study was carried out to evaluate the differences between hemodialysis pa...

Trace elements in hemodialysis patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND Hemodialysis patients are at risk for deficiency of essential trace elements and excess of toxic trace elements, both of which can affect health. We conducted a systematic review to summarize existing literature on trace element status in hemodialysis patients. METHODS All studies which reported relevant data for chronic hemodialysis patients and a healthy control population were e...
