OBJECTIVE
Some patients with cystic fibrosis continue to have excessive losses of stool lipid, despite the use of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy to improve digestion. The aim of this study was to explore the residual capacity of the gastrointestinal tract to digest and absorb dietary lipid
OBJECTIVE
To examine the gastrointestinal handling and metabolic disposal of emulsified [1-13C]palmitic acid esterified into a triglyceride in nine healthy children and seven patients with cystic fibrosis on enzyme replacement treatment.
METHODS
After an overnight fast, each child was given 10 mg/kg
BACKGROUND
For indirect evaluation of pancreatic lipase activity in cystic fibrosis, different 13C-labeled triglycerides may be used.
METHODS
Triglyceride oxidation in patients with cystic fibrosis was investigated after administration of different 13C-labeled triglycerides by comparing 13CO2 breath
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this work was to determine the effects of specific changes in the structure of (13)C-labeled triglyceride (TG*) on its fecal excretion relative to total stool fat excretion determined simultaneously in patients with reduced exocrine pancreatic function.
METHODS
A series of 47
