Abstract
INTRODUCTION Impaired functions, be it cognitive or motor skills are developed since the early childhood stage of life; wherein other skills like language as well as social skills are assimilated by their surrounding environment and their interactions with the same. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is written off as unpredictable sternness in attention deficit levels and hyperactivity, which is associated with neurodevelopmental ailments, which has escalated steeply over the past era. AIMS & OBJECTIVES To evaluate & compare levels of Serum Ferritin, Serum Magnesium and Serum Calcium in children presenting with ADHD. MATERIALS & METHODS Our study consisted of two groups with 30 patients in each group (study & control), who were evaluated for Serum Ferritin, Serum Magnesium and Serum Calcium levels. RESULTS The mean Serum Ferritin levels in the case and study group was found to be 45.68 ± 27.16 & 56.14 ± 30.40 respectively and the mean Serum Calcium levels in the case and study group was found to be 9.04 ± 0.76 & 9.05 ± 0.60 respectively. Further, the mean Serum Magnesium level in the case and study group was found to be 2.01 ± 0.37 & 2.06 ± 0.30 respectively. CONCLUSION Therefore, we conclude that serum levels of ferritin, calcium and magnesium are elevated in ADHD patients and can be used as reliable markers to assess the status of the affected individual. These minerals have shown a significant increase in the group, however there remains a need for additional studies to provide substantial evidence to make them a reliable diagnostic marker.
