| Nutritional Status of Infants and Children with Eczematous Dermatitis
SK Bhattacharya, AK Bhattacharya
January-February 1982, 48(1):17-22
PMID:28193985This study was undertaken in a series of 70 infants (48 males, 22 females) and children aged 1 month to 5 years: with eczematous dermatitis (scabetic 36, pediculous 7, microbic 9, seborrhoeic 10, atopic 6 and due to irritant applications 2) as the primary disease for which medical advice was sought.. Nutritional failure was detected anthropothetrically in 58 (83%) of them, including 16(23%) with acute malnutrition and 42(60%) with chronic malnutrition. They were variably wasted. A few had stomatoglossitis and 4 had pitting oedema (Kwashiorkor). Biochemically, the serum proteins, particularly albumin was significantly low in eczematous children. Under poor dietary and socio- ecomomic conditions, it is difficult to ascribe the malnutrition to eczematous dermatitis alone but the occurrence of malnutrition in 12 out of 13 from higher economic status with better dietary and environmental background suggests the role of eczematous dermatitis in malnutrition. Associated pyogenic infections seemed to be the most important factor producing malnutrition in this study. |

| The Magnitude of Scabies in Rural Primary School Children
P Thirumalaikolundusubramanian, KM Palanivelu, V Prithvi
January-February 1982, 48(1):14-16
PMID:28193984One hundred and one (9.02%) of 1119 students in 13 primary schools were found to have scabies. It was more in girls and in children below the age of 8 years. Poverty, poor hygiene, habits of sharing clothes and intimate personal contact play a major role in the spread and persistence of scabies. Treatment and health education with the help of the teachers worked out well. Lack of proper treatment may lead to an epidemic of scabies. |
