Which one of the following pairs is not correctly matched?

1. Vitamin B12 — Pernicious anaemia
2. Vitamin B6 — Loss of appetite

4. Vitamin B3 — Pellagra

Vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with pernicious anaemia, vitamin B1 deficiency causes beri-beri, and vitamin B3 deficiency causes pellagra. Loss of appetite is not the classic deficiency match for vitamin B6, so that pair is incorrect.
