Serum folate, vitamin B12, homocysteine and vitamin D levels were measured.Results: Folate levels were significantly lower in the patient group compare to the healthy controls (p = 0.046). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of vitamin B12 and homocysteine levels (p = 0.059 and p = 0.077 respectively). Vitamin D was significantly lower in the patient group (p <0.001).Conclusion: These results suggest that deficiency or insufficiency of vitamin D, folate and vitamin B12 may be present in children with specific learning disorder, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of the disorder.
