RESUMO
In a study of zinc status in the elderly, the mean serum and leucocyte zinc concentrations were found to be significantly lower in continuing-care patients compared with elderly people living in the community. The mean daily dietary intakes of zinc, protein and fibre did not differ between the two groups. Serum zinc levels were found to correlate with serum albumin levels. No significant relationship was found between the mean serum or leucocyte zinc concentrations of patients and either their mental status or the presence of skin pressure damage, leg ulcers or unhealed wounds.
