milk hypersensitivity/phosphatase

The effect of cow's milk protein (CMP) challenge on the levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the upper jejunal mucosa and the serum were studied in 25 infants clinically suspected to have cow's milk allergy. Following CMP provocation 3 groups were identified. Group 1 consisted of 10 infants who

This article describes the case of a 16-month-old Hispanic male toddler with cow's milk allergy living in northern California who was admitted to a children's hospital for weight loss and markedly elevated levels of serum alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone. At a routine outpatient

The nutritional status of children with cow's milk allergy was followed during an elimination diet in 19 children (9 boys and 10 girls) beginning at the mean age of two years (range 0.6-4.1 years). The cow's milk allergy had been verified in hospital by a challenge test at a mean age of 0.9 years

BACKGROUND Patients with cow's milk allergy (CMA) and following a cow milk protein-free diet for a long time are potentially at risk of developing bone abnormalities. To assess the balance between bone formation and resorption processes, we determined serum concentrations of osteocalcin (OC), bone

BACKGROUND Infants with cow milk allergy (CMA) are reported to have reduced growth and special nutritional needs. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to compare nutrient intake, nutritional status, and growth in infants with CMA who were fed either a soy formula or an extensively hydrolyzed

OBJECTIVE of this study was to assess concentrations of sclerostin and biochemical markers of bone metabolism in children with cow's milk allergy. METHODS The study included 45 children (age range 2-6 years) with diagnosed cow`s milk allergy, who were on a dairy-free diet and under systematic

BACKGROUND Cow's milk allergy is one of the most common allergies in infancy. It has an excellent prognosis since most cases resolve by 4 years of age. The complications associated with milk allergy include delayed growth and atopic conditions, such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis,

THE AIM of this study was to evaluate selected parameters of calcium and phosphorus metabolism in children with CMA treated with the following milk substitute formulas: lactose-containing extensively hydrolyzed wheat protein formula, lactose-free extensively hydrolyzed casein protein formula, as

Eleven infants who were suspected clinically of having cows' milk protein sensitive enteropathy were fed with a protein hydrolysate formula for six to eight weeks, after which they had jejunal and rectal biopsies taken before and 24 hours after challenge with cows' milk protein. When challenged six

BACKGROUND Patients with cow milk allergy (CMA) are potentially at risk for osteopenia because their milk-free diet usually contains a low calcium content. In our study, different parameters of bone mineralization in children with CMA were investigated. METHODS Twenty-seven CMA patients (mean age,
