Description

Biochemical components and cells in blood were measured to determine the reference values of infants, children and adolescents. This study was performed in 1461 patients suffered from cleft lips, cleft palate and scar, whom we found no abnormal finding in blood components. Components were classified into 4 groups with age-dependent changes, one was the group that had high level in infancy and decreased to the adult level with age. Almost all enzymes such as AST, ALT and LD, and potassium, inorganic phosphorus, white cell counts and platelet counts were into this group. On the other hands, total protein, BUN, creatinine, and red blood cell counts were lowest level in infancy and increased to adult level with age.<BR>Sodium and chloride were no change with age, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) had two peaks at around infancy and 10-12 years. Bone ALP played a main role in these ALP changes.
