The 5 G. D-xylose Absorption Test.
The 5 g. d-xylose absorption test has been studied in 50 normal subjects. The five-hour urinary xylose content was 1.75 +/- 0.43 g. Xylose absorption was more rapid and more complete with the 5 g. than with the 25 g. test. Comparative studies showed the results of the two tests to be significantly related, but the 5 g. test was a less sensitive indicator of malabsorption than the 25 g. test. Th...
متن کاملThe 15 g D-xylose absorption test: its application to the study of coeliac disease.
The absorption of xylose following an oral load of 15 g D-xylose has been studied by serial blood levels in 17 untreated adult coeliac patients, 21 treated coeliac patients, and 30 non-coeliac patients. A statistically significant difference in xylose blood levels was found between untreated coeliac and non-coeliac patients at all the times studied, but a complete separation between these two g...
متن کاملThe Xylose Absorption Test in Infancy.
In recent years the d-xylose test has become a standard technique in the investigation of small bowel absorptive function. It has proved to be a simple and reliable procedure of particular value in distinguishing primary small bowel disease from other causes of malabsorption where the defect is essentially one of intraluminal digestion. The test is therefore potentially of value in the paediatr...
متن کاملUse of the D-xylose absorption test in monitoring intestinal allografts.
From May 1990 until April 1993. 43 patients underwent intestinal transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh. Fifteen received an isolated intestinal graft, 21 received an intestine in combination with a liver. and 7 received a full multivisceral graft. Twenty-one were adult and 22 were pediatric recipients. An overall total of 127 D-xylose absorption tests were performed on 20 adult and 14...
متن کاملThe influence of age on the xylose absorption test.
Xylose absorption tests were performed on patients unselected except to exclude gastrointestinal or renal disease. The proportion of xylose excreted decreases with increasing age. Intravenous xylose tests suggest that this is due to a deterioration in renal function rather than to a reduction in intestinal absorption.
