| Abstract | Children with growth dysfunction present complex diagnostic challenges. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of oral zinc treatment on red cell copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) activity and copper and zinc concentrations in children with “growth retardation.” Twenty-nine patients, average age of 11 yr, whose percentile was under 3% of the National Center of Health Statistics parameters were selected. For the control group, 10 children whose average age was 10 yr were included.Red cell Cu/Zn-SOD activity was determined by spectrophotometer. Red cell copper and zinc concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Red cell Cu/Zn-SOD activity was higher than the control group before zinc treatment (p<0.001). There was a decrease in the Cu/Zn-SOD activity after zinc treatment, but the mean value of the Cu/Zn-SOD activity of patients was still higher than the control values (p<0.001). After zinc treatment, there was an increase in red cell zinc concentration (p<0.01) and a decrease in copper concentration (p<0.001), which were statistically significant. The results of this study suggested that Cu/Zn-SOD activity was increased significantly during growth retardation and zinc treatment appeared to ameliorate the enzyme activity. There were also insignificant alterations in red cell copper and zinc concentrations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
