摘要

Hudson describes the classic clinical signs of vitamin B-12 deficiency in an elderly patient and recommends traditional diagnostic procedures such as measuring vitamin B-12 values and determining antibodies against intrinsic factor and parietal cells.1 However, newer non-invasive, functional blood tests such as measurement of total homocysteine, methylmalonic acid, and holo-transcobalamin II values would allow confirmation of the clinical diagnosis and even monitoring of the early response to treatment.Hudson focuses primarily on pernicious anaemia as the most likely cause of vitamin B-12 deficiency in elderly people. However, malabsorption of vitamin B-12 in food, which is closely associated with atrophic gastritis-a condition with a high prevalence in elderly people-may be the leading cause (in 60-70% of cases) of mild vitamin B-12 deficiency.3 Long term atrophic gastritis may not only be associated with impaired ability to release vitamin B-12 from food products or its binding proteins but may also cause impaired iron absorption.4 Awareness of the association between malabsorption ofvitamin B-12 in food and impaired iron absorption is therefore clinically important, and iron status should. be monitored during supplementation with vitamin B-12. Indeed, a rapid haematological response to vitamin B-12 supplementation may result in rapid depletion of iron stores.
