The concentrations of essential trace elements (copper, zinc, selenium, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, and iodine) in the scalp hair of 21 patients with severe motor disabilities receiving enteral nutrition were measured using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Preliminary results show that copper, selenium, and molybdenum concentrations in the patients' hair were significantly lower than those in an age-matched control group (p<0.01). This suggests that intake of these elements may be reduced in patients receiving restricted enteral nutrition, although the clinical significance of these results should be discussed.
采用电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定了21例接受肠内营养的重度运动障碍患者头皮毛发中必需微量元素（铜、锌、硒、锰、铬、钼、钴和碘）的浓度。初步结果显示，患者毛发中的铜、硒和钼浓度显著低于年龄匹配的对照组（p<0.01）。这表明，接受限制性肠内营养的患者这些元素的摄入量可能会减少，不过这些结果的临床意义仍有待探讨。
