manganese deficiency

A rare mineral deficiency state due to a lack of dietary intake of manganese.

Clinical findings
Manganese deficiency during pregnancy is linked to skeletal defects, shortened limbs, chondrodystrophy, incoordination, ataxia, tremors and hyperreflexia.

Dyslipidemia-manganese association can also be seen in the opposite direction, that is, manganese could affect lipid levels; for instance, studies in animals show that manganese deficiency can decrease high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) (9) and increase total cholesterol and total lipids(5); while others have reported mixed results for the effects of manganese supplementation, where it can induce hypercholesterolemia (6) and hypertriglyceridemia (10) or reduce total cholesterol in diabetic rats (11).
