Abstract | ||
This study were performed to determine two biochemical criteria in the serum of Kala- azar patients include measurement of total serum protein & iron concentration and study the differences between each parameters in patient serum according to age, sex & size of sample study which contain (100) infected children's were (63 male &37 female) those admitted to AL-Batool teaching hospital in Diyala Governorate during the period : (1/10/2012 to 25/3/2013 ).The result in study were showed a significant increase in the protein & iron In infected as compared to & healthy children's . The concentrations of iron in the infected children is (105 ±7.0g/100ml) while the iron concentration in healthy children is(75.84±2.6 g/100ml).The concentration of protein in serum of infected children is (7.22±0.22 g/100ml) while in the healthy children is (7.08±0.12 g/100ml) . | ||
