OBJECTIVE
Small intestinal human immunodeficiency virus enteropathy is characterized by profound absorptive dysfunction unrelated to histology or pathogens. Frequently an attempt is made to compensate for this intestinal failure by supplementing nutrient intake with nourishing liquid meals. It is
Sixty infants with acquired carbohydrate intolerance, 19 with protracted diarrhea, and 41 with features indistinguishable from acute infectious enteritis, were maintained on a lactose-free and cow milk protein-free formula for about eight weeks, after which jejunal biopsies were performed before and
The diagnostic value of a combined test meal consisting of glucose, D-xylose and dairy cream was studied in 230 infants and children with gastrointestinal symptoms. The simultaneous absorption of the three compounds was rated according to their serum concentrations at different times 0-240 min after
A patient with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type 1b (CDGS1b) is reported. The patient presented at 5 months of age with failure to thrive, prolonged diarrhoea, hepatomegaly and elevated serum liver transaminases. Liver biopsy showed steatosis. A low serum albumin and elevated serum
Involvement of the hollow organs of the digestive apparatus can occur in patients in the chronic phase of Chagas' disease. The basic mechanism is destruction of neurons of the enteric nervous system. Whereas megaesophagus and megacolon are the most notable and most extensively studied expressions of
In order to define the gastrointestinal manifestations and small intestinal structure and function in a group of infants with chronic nonspecific diarrhea and hypogammaglobulinemia, we retrospectively identified 55 such patients from a population of 518 children evaluated for chronic diarrhea over a
A 2-month-old girl with exudative pericarditis and hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is presented. The child had characteristic dysmorphic features of carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome, which was confirmed by serum levels of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin.
Underlying the carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome (CDGS) type 1b is a defect in phosphomannose isomerase (PMI), an enzyme of mannose metabolism. The clinical manifestations include exudative gastroenteropathy, thromboses and hemorrhages. In contrast to other forms of the CDGS syndrome,
Carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome (CDGS) is a newly delineated group of inherited multisystemic disorders associated with abnormal glycosylation of a number of serum glycoproteins. Several types have been described on the basis of clinical presentation and biochemical changes of the
Protein-losing enteropathy secondary to intestinal lymphangiectasia was diagnosed in a 1 1/2 -year-old female Doberman Pinscher. Poor growth rate, intermittent diarrhea, ascites, edema, hypoproteinemia, grossly dilated intestinal lymphatics, and impaired fat absorption characterized the disease.
Carbohydrate deficient glycoprotein syndromes (CDGS) are inherited disorders in glycosylation. Isoelectric focusing of serum transferrin is used as a biochemical indicator of CDGS; however, this technique cannot diagnose the molecular defect. Even though phosphomannomutase (PMM) deficiency accounts
In an attempt to differentiate between three important but clinically similar conditions of exudative ascites like tuberculous peritonitis, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and malignant ascites, we evaluated the biochemical parameters of ascitic fluid as a diagnostic aid. The serum ascitic
To evaluate the effectiveness of enteroprotector Rebamipide in the treatment of enteropathy with impaired membrane digestion (EIMD).We examined 102 patients aged 18 to 50 years (41 men and 61 women) with clinical signs of irritable bowel syndrome (n=65), Tropical enteropathy has been described in children and adults that live in developing countries. This disease may be symptomatic or may present without symptoms. We studied 66 patients with tropical enteropathy with special reference to the nutritional status and the intestinal function. The
We report the case of a patient with carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type Ib who developed normally until 3 months of age, when she was referred to the hospital for evaluation of hypoglycemia that was found to be related to hyperinsulinism. She also had vomiting episodes, hepatomegaly,
