Data Mining Techniques Applied to Hydrogen Lactose Breath Test
OBJECTIVES Analyze a set of data of hydrogen breath tests by use of data mining tools. Identify new patterns of H2 production. METHODS Hydrogen breath tests data sets as well as k-means clustering as the data mining technique to a dataset of 2571 patients. RESULTS Six different patterns have been extracted upon analysis of the hydrogen breath test data. We have also shown the relevance of e...
متن کاملLactose malabsorption during gastroenteritis, assessed by the hydrogen breath test.
Thirty-eight infants and young children with gastroenteritis were investigated for lactose malabsorption. Each of them was given an oral lactose load of either 0.5 g/kg or 2 g/kg after which breath hydrogen excretion was measured, and each was observed to see if he had clinical symptoms of lactose intolerance. Only one patient, given 2 g/kg lactose, had clinical intolerance. His breath hydrogen...
متن کاملHydrogen breath test in schoolchildren.
The frequency of negative hydrogen breath tests due to colonic bacterial flora which are unable to produce hydrogen was determined after oral lactulose challenge in 98 healthy Dutch schoolchildren. There was a negative result in 9.2%. The probability of a false normal lactose breath test (1:77) was calculated from these results together with those from a separate group of children with lactose ...
متن کاملLactose intolerance, detected by the hydrogen breath test, in infants and children with chronic diarrhoea.
Twenty-three infants and children aged 21 months to 13 years with chronic diarrhoea and 6 patients without diarrhoea were investigated for lactose malabsorption with the hydrogen breath test (HBT) adapted for use in young infants and children. A further 8 children with proven or suspected coeliac disease were also investigated. The HBT was compared with the histology of the jejunal mucosa, muco...
متن کاملBreath hydrogen test for detecting lactose malabsorption in infants and children. Prevalence of lactose malabsorption in Japanese children and adults.
The breath hydrogen test (BHT) was adapted for use in young infants and children. The diagnostic criterion of sugar malabsorption in the BHT was determined by oral administration of 0.5 g/kg of unabsorbable sugar (lactulose) to 21 healthy infants and children. A maximum increase in breath hydrogen less than 0.05 ml/min per m2 was observed in all subjects. A good correlation between results by t...
