摘要：The basal specific activities (S.A.; μmol of pyruvate/hr/ 10⁸ erythrocytes) and the % deficiencies of activity of the glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase of the erythrocytes (EGOT) of 174 university students was 0.28±0.05 and 33±9%, respectively. There was a negative correlation, r =-0.65 ( p <0.001), between the mean basal S. A. and the mean % def. ( i.e. , the lower the S.A., the higher the % def.). There were students with low basal S.A.'s who showed symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. On the basis of these data, 93% of 174 students had deficiencies of 20% and higher which was potentially correctable by oral pyridoxine; these students had B₆-deficient diets. On the basis that a normal basal S. A. may be 0.7, and that the maximum S. A. (0.45) for all 174 students is about 65% of 0.7, all 174 students had varying vitamin B₆ deficiency, and their diets provided inadequate amounts of this vitamin.
