Circulating thiamine, riboflavin, nicotinates, folates, vitamin B12, B6, A, and carotenes of 149 heroin addicts aged 17-60 years were compared to 204 healthy subjects not using drugs or vitamins. Only 24 per cent of the addicts had no evidence of hypovitaminemia; 45 per cent and 37 per cent had vitamin B6 and folate deficit respectively, whereas deficits of thiamine, vitamin B12, riboflavin, and nicotinate were recorded for 13-19 per cent of the addict population; impaired liver function in addicts did not influence these results.
将149名年龄在17至60岁之间的海洛因成瘾者的循环硫胺素、核黄素、烟酸盐、叶酸、维生素B12、B6、A和胡萝卜素水平，与204名未使用药物或维生素的健康受试者进行了比较。只有24%的成瘾者没有维生素缺乏血症的证据；45%和37%的成瘾者分别存在维生素B6和叶酸缺乏，而硫胺素、维生素B12、核黄素和烟酸盐缺乏在13%至19%的成瘾者中被记录到；成瘾者肝功能受损并未影响这些结果。
