Popis: | Eighteen women participated in a prospective study to assess the need for supplemental riboflavin after gastroplasty. Three groups of five patients received either a placebo or 0.6 or 1.2 mg riboflavin daily for up to 12 months, except during months 4 and 7 when all participants were given a "one-a-day" supplement containing 1.7 mg riboflavin. Dietary intakes of riboflavin decreased from 1.43 +/- 0.17 mg before the operation to 0.70 +/- 0.07 mg at 3 months, and then increased to 1.02 +/- 0.17 mg by 6 months. Even at 12 months, only 33% of the subjects had dietary intakes greater than or equal to 1.2 mg. All those with total intakes less than or equal to 1.7 mg at 3 months had impaired riboflavin status, as indicated by an erythrocyte gluthatione reductase activity coefficient greater than 1.40 and an erythrocyte riboflavin concentration less than 372 nmol/L. In contrast, 62% of the same subjects had urinary riboflavin excretion in the acceptable range. Supplemental intake of 1.7 mg riboflavin appeared to prevent tissue depletion in all subjects. |
