Niski poziom cynku u chorych z metabolicznym zespołem X (mzX) stwierdzany w oparciu o analizę tego pierwiastka we włosach
[Low zinc level in metabolic X syndrom (mzX) patients measured by hair zinc content analysis]
ABSTRACT
The hair zinc content in 16 patients with metabolic X syndrome (mzX) was measured by means of atomic absorption spectrometry method. The mean concentration (125,13 mg/kg) was lower than in the majority of other published studies. The differences among groups of patients I with different sex or diseases (e.g. coronary heart disease, hypertension, type II diabetes mellitus) were not significant. It seems to be probably that deficiency of zinc plays a role in pathogenesis of mzX or that it is a consequence of mzX.
