A technique for detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) from circulating blood leukocytes, using the polymerase chain reaction, is described. The published nucleotide sequences of 2 strains of BVDV and that of hog cholera virus were aligned and the information was used to design
We report a 60-year-old man with intermittent diarrhea for 15 years which was worsened by cholecystectomy. The results of routine laboratory tests, x-ray studies of the gut, and endoscopy were normal. Fecal fat excretion was normal, but total bile acid excretion was increased in the alkaline feces.
An infant with 21 months of chronic protracted diarrhea, associated with intestinal mucosal atrophy, decreased crypt mitotic activity, and anti-intestinal antibodies is reported. During a 4-month period, cimetidine was used in an attempt to stimulate mucosal growth. Thirty-minute postprandial serum
Three of nine dairy calves born in the spring/summer wee severely ataxic at birth. Necropsy of the 3 affected calves revealed severe cerebellar degeneration (hypoplasia). Clinical signs were inapparent in the adult cows. Serum neutralization titers of the cows and calves indicated high bovine viral
Persistent diarrhea is commonly observed after solid organ transplantation (SOT). A few cases of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)-induced duodenal villous atrophy (DVA) have been previously reported in kidney-transplant patients with chronic diarrhea. Herein, we report on the incidence and
OBJECTIVE
Persistent diarrhea is a common complication after solid-organ transplant, including kidney transplant. Data on duodenal villous atrophy as a cause of persistent diarrhea in renal transplant recipients are scarce.
METHODS
We conducted a prospective analysis of 207 patients who received
Villous atrophy of the terminal ileum is usually secondary to celiac disease or other diseases. Very few cases of primary ileal villous atrophy have been reported in the literature. We report here the case of a 37-year-old man with chronic diarrhea since childhood without features of malabsorption.
We report two unrelated children with onset of chronic diarrhea and villous atrophy in the first years of life. Elevated plasma lactate concentrations and lactate/pyruvate and ketone body molar ratios suggested a genetic defect of oxidative phosphorylation. Analysis of the mitochondrial respiratory
In this paper, we have shown that long-term treatment of NZB mice with anti-CD4 antibody results in four major pathological effects: firstly the development of a severe wasting disease; secondly lymphoid atrophy of the thymus, spleen, mesenteric lymph node and Peyers patches (PP); thirdly, severe
We report on a patient with connatal chronic diarrhea. Electron microscopical examination revealed "microvillus inclusion disease", characterized by enterocyte brushborder abnormalities. Differential diagnoses are enteral infection and intolerance to formula protein, rarely disaccharidase
