Galactose tolerance test of liver function in pulmonary heart disease.
A study of the liver function in pulmonary heart disease (Thomas, Rees, and Saunders, 1965) suggested that galactose was not metabolized normally by the liver, and so the galactose tolerance test was frequently abnormal. The results suggested that the galactose tolerance test could be abnormal before signs of clinical heart failure appeared. It seemed either that hypoxia was a factor causing di...
متن کاملStudies on galactose tolerance test in patients with liver disease.
Oral galactose tolerance tests were performed on 56 patients with liver disease, 31 with diabetes mellitus and 17 normal subjects. Intravenous galactose tolerance tests were done on 25 liver disease, 6 diabetes mellitus and 6 normal subjects. Each liver disease was histologically comfirmed by needle biopsy under laparoscopy. Serum galactose and glucose were measured gaschromatographically. Oral...
متن کاملThe Estimation of Galactose in Plasma Using Galactose Oxidase.
The estimation of galactose in plasma by the enzyme system galactose oxidaseperoxidase was investigated. The method was found to be relatively specific for galactose although xylose and ascorbic acid reacted to a slight degree with the enzyme; lactose also reacted with the enzyme, probably because partial hydrolysis of the disaccharide released galactose. The relationship between absorbance and...
متن کاملFructose, Glucose, and Galactose Tolerance in Dogs
In a recent study, Folin and Berglund (1) describe certain phenomena associated with the transportation, retention, and excretion of carbohydrates. Data are presented to show that both fructose and galactose are less effective than glucose in raising the level of the blood sugar. The explanation offered is that the tissues, being relatively well stored with glucose and empty of other sugars may...
متن کاملGalactose Tolerance of Normal and Diabetic Subjects, and the Effect of Insulin upon Galactose Metabolism
It is the purpose of this paper to present the results of aninvestigation of galactose metabolism by determining the galactose content of the blood and urine following the administration of galactose by mouth to human subjects, and by determining the galactose concentration of the blood following the subcutaneous, intravenous, or intraperitoneal administration of galactose to animals. Investiga...
