Radioiodinated triolein in malabsorption states.
In the light of the difficulties and inadequacies of established methods in the investigation of intestinal malabsorption the report by Stanley and Thannhauser (1949) that radioiodinated olive oil might provide an index of fat absorption appeared to be of considerable interest. Subsequent investigators in America, using a pure neutral fat, triolein, similarly iodinated, have reported on the stu...
متن کاملComplex carbohydrate malabsorption in exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
The magnitude of complex carbohydrate malabsorption in exocrine pancreatic insufficiency has not been well quantified in the past. The quantity of carbohydrate malabsorbed after a rice starch (100 g) meal in 20 patients with chronic pancreatitis (n = 10) or pancreatic cancer (n = 10) was therefore estimated. Patients had a three day stool fat collection (80 g/24 hour fat intake), a lactulose (2...

were calculated as eight hour cumulative values and expressed as percentages of the administered dose. Reference ranges have been calculated separately for the following age groups: 65 years or less (201 to 460), 66 to 75 (182 to 405) and over 75 (141 to 336). A clear age related decline in eight hour cumulative values was noted. The values fell by 23% between the ages of 17 and 65 years and by...
متن کاملExocrine pancreatic insufficiency: accuracy and clinical value of the uniformly labelled 13C-Hiolein breath test.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The 13C-Hiolein breath test (98% [U-13C] labelled long chain triglyceride mixture (highly labelled triolein) was evaluated as a non-invasive, non-radioactive test for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Accuracy and clinical validity were examined with reference to both the secretin pancreozymin test and faecal fat analysis. METHODS A secretin pancreozymin test and faecal f...
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...
