dc.description.abstractIntroduction: It was aimed to evaluate CBC analyses (HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW and PLT), folic acid, cobalamin, serum iron and serum iron binding capacity and make a comparison according to gender in patients >50 years applied to check-up outpatients' clinic. Material and Method: 20 male and 35 female, total 55, consecutive patients who have median age 59.0 (50-85) yrs, applied to check-up polyclinic were included. Result: While median B12 vitamin and folic acid levels in men as follows: 170 (1501000) pg/mL and 6.4 (6.3-7.7) ng/mL; these values for women as follows: 261 (1501000) pg/mL and 9.3 (1.8-17.7) ng/mL (P<0.01 and P<0.01), consecutively. Cobalamin deficiency is common in both of gender. It was determined that cobalamin deficiency in male was 70%, and in female, 45.7%, (P=0.07), consecutively. Folic acid level is found in only one female case as <2 ng/mL. TSI% is lower in female (in male as 26.6% vs. in female as 18.1%; P<0.0001). MCV in eight (14.5%) cases was below 80 fL and MCV in nine (16.4%) cases was above 90 fL; however, MCV in none of cases was above 100 fL. Conclusion: In periodical examination of elderly, a high level of cobalamin deficiency could be determined; also the prevalence of cobalamin deficiency could be changed with accepted cut-off level. Present study showed it is important to consider cobalamin and iron deficiency in periodical examination of elderly.en_US
