PREVALENCE OF HYPOCALCAEMIA IN A SELECTED POPULATION IN KANO: CALL FOR METABOLOMICS AND GENETIC PROFILING FOR RISK PREDICTION.
Hypocalcemia is highly prevalent in our population emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to better understand the genetic predictors, enable early intervention and prevent the long-term complications. These findings also provide a foundation for future multicenter studies and could inform public health policies targeting at risk groups. Keywords: Hypocalcaemia, Risk prediction,Metabolomics, Genetic markers.
