Biological trace element research, Volume 94, Issue 1, 1 1 2003, Pages 79-86 Effects of iron(II) salts and iron(III) complexes on trace element status in children with iron-deficiency anemia. Sözmen EY, Kavakli K, Cetinkaya B, Akçay YD, Yilmaz D, Aydinok Y
Iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common nutritional deficiency in childhood throughout the world. Although it has been shown that IRA is associated with elevated plasma copper and depleted zinc levels in children, there are conflicting results on the effect of iron supplementation on the absorption of these elements. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ferrous and ferric iron supplementation on the trace element status in children (n=25, aged 8-168 mo) with IDA. Fourt... Abstract

Neurilemmoma, neurofibroma and neuroma are benign neoplasms of nerve tissue. These arise from components of the peripheral nerves. They are extremely rare within the jaws. Schwannoma or neurilemmoma may occur along the route of any of the peripheral cranial or sympathetic nerves. The source of origin is thought to be the schwann cells. Its appearance in oral and paraoral regions is not rare. Treatment is surgical and the prognosis is excellent. It has no tendency toward recurrence. Our schwannom... Abstract
