Appendix F LETTER OF REQUEST University of ¡¡anitoba Faculty of Human Ecology Department of Foods & Nutrition January ,1987 To: Parents From: Girma Seyoum,Graduate Sludent,Foods & Nutrition Department Subject: Request for involvement of your child in a study Dear Parents: I am a graduate student in the Department of Foods and Nutrition at the University of Manitoba. I am currently in the process of undertaking my thesis research which includes adapting a procedure for children from one used to assess ability to see in dim light conditions. Such ability is a function of the Vitamin À leve1 of individuals. Measuring dark adaptation is one means of assessing the vitamin A nutritional status of individuals since an initial sign of vitamin À deficiency is a decrease in dark adaptation ability. Vitamin A deficiency disease is one of the most frequently occurring nutritional problems in the world and it is lhe major cause of blindness in children in third world countries. EarIy detection of vitamin À deficiency through measurement of dark adaptation ability allows prevenLive and therapeutic measures to be taken which are easy to administer a! a relatively low cost. - 140 -
