Abstract

Background: Loss of appetite in children is a cause of complaint orconcern for many parents. In this study, we aimed to investigate thestatus of vitamin D in children admitted with a complaint of loss ofappetite.Methods: The study included 40 children aged between 1 and 5years with loss of appetite between January and September 2016.Control group included 96 healthy children.Results: There was no significant difference in the sex, age and labo ratory results, except vitamin D level, of the both groups. Vitamin Dlevels were significantly lower in the poor appetite group Conclusion: In conclusion, it should be kept in mind that seeminglyhealthy children with family concern of poor appetite may have vita min D deficiency. Loss of appetite may be the first sign of the vitaminD deficiency. Yet, high costs can be prevented only by regular use ofvitamin D prophylaxis.
