[The vitamin C, B12 and folate allowances of pregnant women in Moscow].

A dietary supply of vitamins was studied in 212 pregnant women for 11 months. Mean blood levels of vitamins were found subnormal, the percentage of the women with vitamin deficiency increased. Especially inadequate was supply of folate followed by vitamin C. Intake of 1 dragee a day of polyvitamins "Gendevitum" improved the vitamin status of the examinees with the best results obtained in the first trimester. Folate and B12 levels decreased with advance of pregnancy irrespective of polyvitamins administration. Vitamin C supply was better in summer and autumn, folate levels were higher in winter and spring. It is suggested that vitamins C, B12 and folate deficiency observed in pregnancy should be corrected.

[The evaluation of the efficacy of a 6-month vitaminization of schoolchildren in grades 1 to 8 in the city of Baku].

Investigations were conducted in 110 schoolchildren aged 7-10 and 11-14 years. They had received insufficiently balanced traditional nutrition deficient in animal proteins, vegetable oils, calcium, and, especially, in vitamins. Excretion of ascorbic acid, thiamine, riboflavine, N1-HA was decreased as compared to the lower standard limits 3.5-1.9 times in 85-90% of schoolchildren aged 7-14 years, microsymptoms of vitamin deficiency (including polyvitamin deficiency) were noted in 33-53% of the children. Administration of varying doses of "Undevitum" (0.5, 1 and 1.5 dragees/day) has shown that for normalization of vitamin status, decreasing morbidity rate and improvement of their mental capacity, the schoolchildren of 1-4 forms should receive 1 dragee and those of 5-8 forms--1.5 dragee of "Undevitum"/day as an optimum dose.

[Vitamin status in human noninfectious chronic diseases].

The data on vitamin sufficiency of adults and children suffering from chronic sickness and vitamin content in mostly common hospital diets has been submitted. Polyhypovitaminosis (combined insufficiency with several vitamins) takes place irrespective of season, age and place of residence. Deficit of B group vitamins and carotenoids has been observed more frequently. All hospital diets contain inadequate level of carotenoids, strongly reduced diets are deficiently in all vitamins. Any way of vitaminization (vitamins administration, including of vitamin-enriched food products in the ration) leads to the decrease of polyhypovitaminosis frequency, to the increase of the part of people adequately supplied with all vitamins and simultaneous improvement of patients clinic status.
