The neurology of folic acid deficiency
Handbook of Clinical Neurology, 2014The metabolism of folic acid and the metabolism of vitamin B12 are intimately linked such that deficiency of either vitamin leads to an identical megaloblastic anemia. The neurologic manifestations of folate deficiency overlap with those of vitamin B12 deficiency and include cognitive impairment, dementia, depression, and, less commonly, peripheral ...

Folic acid deficiency and vision: a review
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2019Folic acid (FA), also termed folate, is an essential vitamin for health at all ages since it participates in the biosynthesis of nucleotides, amino acids, neurotransmitters, and certain vitamins. It is therefore crucial for rapidly growing tissues such as those of the fetus.

Folic acid deficiency and depression
Psychosomatics, 1980Abstract To explore the association between folic acid deficiency and depression, the authors selected 48 patients and divided them into three groups–depressed patients, psychiatrically ill (but nondepressed) patients, and medically ill patients. All patients were hospitalized for one week and received standard diets with no drugs or vitamins. At the

Folic acid deficiency and neutrophil dysfunction [PDF]
The American Journal of Medicine, 1982 Polymorphonuclear leukocyte functions were studied in 92 patients with protein-calorie malnutrition. Serum folic acid levels were higher than 3 ng/ml in 38 patients and 3 ng/ml or less in 54 patients. Significant differences were found between these two groups of patients with regard to phagocytosis (81.5 +/- 1.9 versus 69.2 +/- 2.0 percent, p less ...
