Abstract
The relationship of hair zinc concentrations and dietary zinc intakes to height and weight were compared among three groups of children: small-for-age and normal sized functionally delayed children, and normal sized nondelayed children. There were no statistical differences among the groups for either hair zinc concentrations or the dietary zinc intake. The heterogeneity of hair zinc concentrations in the small-for-age groups prevents making generalizations about the relationship between hair zinc and growth status in functionally delayed children.
