BACKGROUND
Fructose malabsorption is frequently seen in the general population and is characterised by the inability to absorb fructose efficiently. Due to fructose malabsorption, fructose reaches the colon where it is broken down by bacteria to short fatty acids, CO(2) and H(2). Bloating, cramps,
BACKGROUND
Zygophyllum album L. (Zygophyllaceae), commonly known as Bougriba, is widely used to treat diabetes, digestive tract spasm, and hypertension in folk medicine, in Tunisia.
OBJECTIVE
This study investigates the antidiabetic, antidiarrheal, and antihypertensive activities of the leaves of
Diarrhea and malnutrition are major health problems in developing countries. Inflammation, high oxidative stress, poor nutritional status and fatty liver were encountered during such diseases. Patents for diarrhea and malnutrition management (WO2007/130882A2, WO00/37106A1, OBJECTIVE
Persistent diarrhea has been proven to cause pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, due to decreased stimulation to the pancreas caused by prolonged mucosal injury. Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) given in conjunction to regular treatment is thought to be beneficial in replacing
BACKGROUND
Protein S deficiency and mesenteric venous thrombosis have been described in association with ischemic and/or necrotic bowel. Thrombophilic familial protein S deficiency is known to be amplified by estrogen replacement therapy. Pancreatic ischemia studies have revealed elevated amylase
BACKGROUND
An elevated lipase typically confirms the diagnosis of pancreatitis. Elevated lipase may be associated with other disorders, typically with some influence on the pancreas. The differential is more limited than elevated amylase secondary to the mostly unique production of lipase in
Pancreatin is a substance containing enzymes, principally amylase, lipase, and protease. It is obtained from bovine or porcine pancreas and used in the treatment of pancreatic endocrine insufficiency in humans. Regulations and safety concerns mandate viral clearance (virus removal or inactivation)
OBJECTIVE
Several pathogens have been involved as etiologic agents of acute pancreatitis. We studied 59 patients presenting acute infectious diarrhea in order to determine the incidence as well as to identify factors which may contribute to the occurrence of pancreatic enzyme alteration or true
OBJECTIVE
An inherited deficiency of human lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) results in the rare conditions of Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD). We want to present the rare case of CESD in an adult.
METHODS
We report about an adult female patient with severe chronic diarrhea and
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) deficiency is an under-recognized lysosomal disease caused by deficient enzymatic activity of LAL. In this report we describe two affected female Mexican siblings with early hepatic complications. At two months of age, the first sibling presented with alternating episodes
Immunoreactive lipase (IRL) was measured in 368 stool samples from 231 individuals by means of a new enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay technic, to test its validity as an indicator of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Ninety-seven stool samples from 64 healthy volunteers showed a logarithmically
A 32-year old patient presented with recurrent pancreatitis, severe watery diarrhea and elevated serum levels of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide. His diarrhea appeared to respond to intramuscular propantheline. Initially he improved but had another attack of pancreatitis while hospitalized.
To describe the demographic, clinical, laboratory and molecular characteristics of patients with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency.A retrospective review of the medical records of children with the disease.Seven children with The ability of cell extracts and culture filtrates of various strains of C. perfringens to produce ileal loop fluid accumulation and overt diarrhea in rabbits was tested. Good correlation was obtained in the ability of whole cells and a toxic factor (present in cell extracts and concentrated culture
