<p><strong><em>Objective</em></strong><em>:Sub-clinical rickets is a disease on which preplanned research studies are not conducted. The interrelated features related to school students regarding subclinical rickets and further elements like Geographical distribution, gender, and prevalence will be debated in our study.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Methods</em></strong><em>:A total number of 190 school children (comprising over the age group, 11 years to 16 years) from rural and urban areas were studies at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore (March, 2016 to February, 2017). Subclinical matters were inspected with unbalanced biochemical discoveries, lacking physiological symptoms of rickets.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Results</em></strong><em>:Geologically 26 cases of the disease were found in the school children belonging to rural areas, 16 from urban and 9 from suburban areas. The disease found in the school children was comprising over 8% boys and 19% girls. None of the school children were having (parathyroid level) higher than peak of normal range and the whole number of subclinical cases depicted the value in mid (>18nmol/l) to (>39nmol/l). The expected values were not matched and the deficient (Vitamin D), (Calcium) and (Phosphorus) in routine foods was observed. In deficiency rate in comparison was the same in boys and girls.</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Conclusion</em></strong><em>: The big factor behind clinical rickets is deficiency of synergistic outcome of sunshine vitamin D and this disease is covered up (not apparent) amongst the school children. The major purpose of our research was to debate the gender, geological spreading and prevalence of sub clinical rickets and their interconnected elements among children.</em></p>
