Article Synopsis
- This study investigated the effectiveness of serum folic acid testing in children and teens in a developed country without mandatory food fortification, analyzing data from over 20,000 patients aged 0-18 between 2008 and 2018.
- Out of the patients tested, only 4.3% had folic acid deficiency, and the majority did not show signs of anemia, suggesting low rates of severe deficiency in the population studied.
- The research highlighted that certain factors, such as male gender, older age, higher BMI, and specific medication usage (like antipsychotics or drugs for ADHD), increased the risk of folic acid deficiency, but routine testing may not be necessary for healthy children in developed countries.
