Abstract
Prior malnutrition is common among infants and children admitted
to PD, as evidenced by low weight and reduced levels of plasma proteins
on admission. Combined clinical, anthropometric and laboratory
parameters are needed for appropriate nutritional assessment of these
patients.
The relatively high gastrin levels detected in the malnourished
patients could be considered among the factors responsible for these
changes; an observation which a waits further studies.
