This section is a part of the chapter: Serum Zinc and Vitamin A Levels in Tuberculosis Patients: A Comprehensive Study
This study looked at 40 patients recently diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), aged 18 to 60, between September 2020 and April 2021. Blood samples were taken to measure levels of key health indicators such as vitamin A, zinc, hemoglobin, white blood cells, and albumin. The results showed low levels of zinc and vitamin A in TB patients, along with changes in other blood markers like hemoglobin and ESR, which may reflect the body’s response to infection. These findings suggest a potential link between TB and nutritional deficiencies that may affect recovery.
