Contribution of vitamin B 6 deficiency to anemia in children on regular hemodialysis
It is evident that the majority of our patients did not meet the desired threshold for anemia control. However, it is noteworthy that the average hemoglobin (Hb) level approached the intended target. The incidence of Vitamin B6 deficiency was not found to be statistically significant within our study population. Therefore, we could not establish a correlation between vitamin B6 deficiency and anemia in children on HD.
