Hb & Lymphoblast were higher in AML than ALL.
No difference found in the result between ALT and AST.
Urea level of AML and ALL Children were in high level, but AML children were more than the upper limit of the Reference Range.
The food intakes in the hospital compared with DRI were more than 100% while the other nutrients were less than DRI, deficiency was particularly evident for selenium (72.14% of DRI), followed by Vit.
