| Sumario: | Aims: To correlate the ¡ron biochemical screening with cognitive and motor development, related to social background, in 6 to 24 month infants. Melkiods: a population - based study of 276 children. The ¡ron deficiency was determine by the modified criterion of Hillman (1996), combining three different screenings tests: serum ferritin, hemoglobin and erythrocyte protoporphyrin. To analyse development we used Bayley II Scale. Results and conclusions: the anaemia was significative different (p< 0,05) between social levels, 36% in children with low socioeconomic background. 8% for the hlgh one and ¡ron deficiency without anaemia 42% in the total population. The motor development was homogeneous by social groups, showed 1% significative delay, 8% light delay. But the mental development shows significative differences (p<O,OS) in both light and significative delay, been the just affected children with low soctoeconomic background. |
