The 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 کاملThe 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 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 کاملAlteration of D-xylose intestinal absorption in broilers with high dietary barley intake
Low nutritive value and suitability of barley as a feedstuff for broilers is mainly due to its non-starch polysaccharides. An experiment was carried out to evaluate if diets high in barley alter the mechanisms responsible for the absorption of nutrients across the intestinal epithelium of broilers, using D-xylose absorption test. Thirty, 14-d old male broiler chicks (Ross 308) with similar body...
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...
