Pediatrics, 1986
To the Editor.— Kumar and Anday1 describe three premature infants presenting with edema and hypoproteinemia—the classical signs of kwashiorkor—between 5 and 9 weeks of age. Such cases are not uncommon in developing countries. Kumar and Anday's patients had low plasma zinc concentrations (43, 37, and 42 µg/dL).

Though far more common, particularly in elderly people, than was previously assumed, marginal zinc deficiency does not lead to the classical manifestations of zinc deficiency and is therefore difficult to diagnose. There is therefore a need for sensitive parameters that can reliably demonstrate even marginal zinc deficiency, as suboptimal zinc status ...

The Journal of Nutrition, 1981
Two experiments were conducted to produce Zn deficiency in, and to establish approximate Zn requirements of, the cat. In experiment 1, soy protein (SP)-based diets were fed for 8 months: diet 1, basal, without added Zn, 15 ppm; diet 2, basal, 15 ppm Zn plus 2% CaHPO4; and diet 3, basal with added Zn, 67 ppm.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1984
To the Editor.— Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a complex disease. A multifactorial model is receiving strong support from investigators suggesting that the disease is a cumulative process following exposure to multiple injuries to the immune system. Furthermore, it is likely that all cases of AIDS are not from the same set of causes.

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1976
In 1869, Raulin1first showed that zinc was essential for the growth ofAspergillus niger. In 1926, its essentiality for higher forms of plant life was established.2Todd and coworkers3(1934) showed that zinc was necessary for the growth and well being of the rat. In 1955, Tucker and Salmon4reported that Zinc cures and prevents parakeratosis in swine. The

American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1991
Zinc deficiency occurs in individuals and populations whose diets are low in sources of readily bioavailable zinc such as red meat, and high in unrefined cereals that are rich in phytate and dietary fibers. Dietary zinc deficiency was described nearly three decades ago among the poor of the Middle East.

Discovery of Human Zinc Deficiency and Marginal Deficiency of Zinc
1990The importance of zinc for human health was first documented in 1963. During the past twenty five years, deficiency of zinc in humans due to nutritional factors and several disease states has now been recognized.
