The domestic cat Felis silvestris catus is the most accessible member of the family Felidae for the study of the relationship between food selection and nutrition. In contrast to pack-living animals such as the dog, and opportunistic omnivores such as the rat, the cat is generally able to maintain

Breath hydrogen tests were carried out on 157 children either because they had chronic diarrhea or because they were on disaccharide-free diets. Lactose malabsorption was common in patients with postgastroenteritis syndrome (43%), and sucrose malabsorption was readily detected in patients with

A 10-year-old boy with severe familial lactose intolerance in infancy (vomiting, failure to thrive, lactosuria (5.25 g/l), sucrosuria (12 g/l), and aminoaciduria. Intestinal disaccharidases (including lactase and sucrase) normal at age 6 and 20 weeks. Oral lactose tolerance test at this age resulted

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of diacetyl rhein (DAR) on the synthesis, turnover and composition of cartilage in an experimental model of osteoarthritis in beagle bitches. METHODS Osteoarthritis was induced in mature beagle bitches by the transection of the cranial cruciate ligament. Six

BACKGROUND Hepatic encephalopathy is a brain dysfunction with neurological and psychiatric changes associated with liver insufficiency or portal-systemic shunting. The severity ranges from minor symptoms to coma. A Cochrane systematic review including 11 randomised clinical trials on branched-chain

The typical manifestations of intestinal strictures include abdominal distention, bilious vomiting, hematochezia, diarrhea, disaccharide intolerance, and occasional growth failure. However, chronic gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss from ulcers at the site of the stricture has not been noted as a

Oral supplements of arginine and citrulline increase local nitric oxide (NO) production in the small intestine and this may be harmful under certain circumstances. Gastrointestinal toxicity was therefore reviewed with respect to the intestinal physiology of arginine, citrulline, ornithine, and
