Urinary recovery of lactulose compared to D-xylose absorption kinetics in HIV patients with diarrhea and weight loss.

Only registered users can translate articles

Using a kinetic model of D-xylose absorption, we have previously shown that there is severely impaired absorption of D-xylose in HIV patients with diarrhea and weight loss. The absorptive defect is characterized by an increased rate constant for nonabsorptive loss of D-xylose, Ko, and a decreased

D-xylose malabsorption: characteristic finding in patients with the AIDS wasting syndrome and chronic diarrhea.

The AIDS wasting syndrome (AWS) is characterized by > 10% loss of baseline body weight during 6 months and may occur in patients with or without associated chronic diarrhea. To determine whether the presence of small-intestinal malabsorption is associated with the development of AWS in human

D-xylose absorption in non-chronic diarrhea AIDS patients with the wasting syndrome.

OBJECTIVE To compare the intestinal absorptive capacity, permeability function and duodenal histopathology in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients with or without wasting syndrome who had not suffered from chronic diarrhea. METHODS Adult HIV patients who attended Chulalongkorn Hospital were

Comparison of the D-xylose and polyethylene glycol absorption tests as indicators of mucosal damage in infants with chronic diarrhea.

The determination of serum levels of D-xylose and the urinary excretion of an orally administered mixture of low-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol were compared to assess their sensitivity to predict small-bowel mucosal damage. Eighteen infants with severe diarrhea and villus atrophy were

SYMPOSIUM ON INFLAMMATORY DISEASE OF THE INTESTINE. THE PHYSIOLOGY OF DIARRHEA.

Only registered users can translate articles

Derangement of small and large intestinal motility, secretion, absorption and storage function may result in "large stool diarrhea" or "small stool diarrhea". Emotional stresses and the ingestion of drugs may change bowel functions already altered by disease. Use of intraluminal intestinal balloons

Kinetics of D-xylose absorption in patients with human immunodeficiency virus enteropathy.

Only registered users can translate articles

D-Xylose absorption was studied in 12 patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or advanced AIDS-related complex who had had diarrhea for more than 8 weeks, averaged an 11% (range, 3% to 21%) body weight loss during the previous 6 months, and had had negative stool examinations for

Small intestinal malabsorption in chronic alcoholism determined by 13C-D-xylose breath test and microscopic examination of the duodenal mucosa.

OBJECTIVE Diarrhea, weight loss and osteoporosis are prominent symptoms and clinical signs of alcoholism. One of several possible factors causing this clinical picture is small intestinal damage leading to malabsorption. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate small intestinal absorption

Histopathologic findings of duodenal biopsy specimens in HIV-infected patients with and without diarrhea and malabsorption.

Only registered users can translate articles

The significance of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the small intestinal lamina propria in patients with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome or conditions related to that syndrome who have chronic diarrhea and malabsorption is unclear. To investigate this issue, upper endoscopy (after

D-xylose absorption as a measurement of malabsorption in poult enteritis and mortality syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

Severe wasting of body tissues, diarrhea, high morbidity and mortality, and stunting are all characteristics of poult enteritis and mortality syndrome (PEMS). The wasting of musculature and loss of nearly all adipose tissue suggested that even though the PEMS-infected poults were eating some feed,

[Research on building method of spleen kidney Yang deficiency diarrhea rats model].

Only registered users can translate articles

Spleen kidney Yang deficiency (SKYD) diarrhea is a common syndrome in tranditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Until now, there is not an ideal SKYD diarrhea rat model for the research. In this study, we compared single factor way (method I, injecting hydrocortisone and gavaging Sennae Folium) with

A 51-year-old woman was referred for evaluation of chronic diarrhea. She had spent a 14 day vacation in Sri Lanka three years ago. The clinical examination of the patient was unremarkable. Values for protein, iron, zinc, copper and folic acid were decreased and the Shilling- and D-xylose tests

The erythrocytic immune function of 40 cases of patients with Spleen Deficiency (SD) and 20 cases of the normal control group were observed, and the former were subdivide into diarrhea group and non-diarrhea group. The results showed that the rosette rate of red cell C3b receptor (C3b-RR) in the SD

Oral ganciclovir systemic exposure is enhanced in HIV-infected patients with diarrhea and weight loss.

OBJECTIVE To determine whether diarrhea and intestinal malabsorption during HIV infection alter oral ganciclovir systemic exposure. METHODS We studied the oral disposition of ganciclovir in 42 HIV-infected patients stratified into three groups: A (n = 15), HIV (stage A and B); B (n = 13), AIDS

Malabsorption and deficiency of vitamin B12 in HIV-infected patients with chronic diarrhea.

Deficiency of vitamin B12 is commonly reported in HIV-infected patients. We measured vitamin B12 levels in 36 HIV-infected patients with chronic diarrhea (> 3 stools/day for six weeks or more). Eight patients had an identifiable cause of diarrhea. Vitamin B12 levels were low in 39%. Sixteen of these
