Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how antimicrobial substances in children's saliva, specifically immunoglobulin A (IgA), lactoferrin, and lysozyme, are linked to their physical growth and lifestyle factors.
- Saliva samples from 90 children were analyzed for these substances, and results indicated that higher IgA flow rates were associated with increases in age, height, and weight.
- Additionally, a strong correlation was found between the flow rates of lactoferrin and lysozyme, and factors like sleep duration were also found to relate to lactoferrin levels.
