Fecal fat excretion in irritable bowel syndrome

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2012
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is considered as a diagnosis of exclusion. However, assessment of fecal fat excretion, being a cumbersome procedure, is seldom performed in the investigation of such ...

Quantitative fecal carbohydrate excretion in premature infants

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1989
Despite relative lactase deficiency and pancreatic insufficiency, premature infants are fed formulas containing 50% lactose plus 50% glucose polymers. We measured total fecal carbohydrate excretion in six healthy 32-wk gestation premature infants who had been fed two 0.784-kcal/g formulas that were similar except for the carbohydrate source (100 ...

The fecal excretion of sugars in children

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1963
Stools of normal infants and children with diarrhea not of metabolic origin and of children in hospital with a variety of diseases not involving the gastrointestinal tract were analyzed for sugars. It was found that a high percentage of the stools from these children contained monosaccharides and disaccharides.

Fecal Excretion of Hepatitis A Virus in Humans

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
To define more completely the period of fecal excretion of virus during hepatitis A virus infection, we studied 24 fecal samples from six children with clinical illness during an epidemic of type A hepatitis. As determined by immune electron microscopy, the six patients had detectable viral excretion before or by the time of the first abnormality in ...

Fecal bile acid excretion pattern in cholecystectomized patients

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1986
The fecal bile acid excretion pattern was investigated in 25 cholecystectomized and 26 noncholecystectomized patients as a measure for the exposure of the colonic mucosa to bile acids. Separation of free, conjugated, and sulfated bile acids was achieved by liquid-gel chromatography using DEAP Sephadex LH-20 and quantification of individual bile acids ...

The effect of diarrhea on fecal fat excretion

Gastroenterology, 1992
To determine whether diarrhea increases fecal fat excretion, fecal fat output was measured during three consecutive days in normal subjects and in normal subjects in whom diarrhea was purposefully induced. Mean fecal fat output in normal subjects was 3.4 g/day; the upper limit of normal was 6.4 g/day.

Fecal Triglyceride Excretion Is Not Excessive in Pancreatic Insufficiency

Gastroenterology, 1989
Steatorrhea can result from maldigestion or malabsorption. As the pathophysiology underlying impaired digestion differs from impaired absorption, it is important to differentiate these two disorders. It is generally accepted that patients with maldigestion excrete an excessive amount of triglyceride and patients with malabsorption excrete an excess of ...

Measurement of fecal C-14 excretion.

Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine, 1982
Simultaneous measurements of fecal C-14 and expired 14CO2 in the breath are necessary to evaluate patients with various ileal abnormalities and bile salt malabsorption. Following the oral ingestion of the labeled bile acid, glycine-[I-14C]cholic acid, detection of increased fecal C-14 without abnormal expiration of 14CO2 identifies patients with ileal ...

Fecal steroid excretion and degradation and breast cancer stage

Journal of Surgical Research, 1983
Evaluation of excretion and degradation of fecal steroids in 74 women with breast cancer in relation to stage, tumor size, and histopathologic nodal status revealed significant differences in relation to stage of disease and tumor size. The level of total fecal steroids (mean +/- SD in mg/g dry wt) in patients with Stage I disease was 40 + 20, Stage II

Reduced fecal sterol excretion in subjects with familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia

Atherosclerosis, 2009
Fecal bile acid and neutral sterol excretion are the obligate endpoints of the reverse cholesterol transport pathway (RCT). In studies in mice, no evidence was found for a relation between HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c) levels and fecal sterol excretion. In this study, we have evaluated this relationship in patients with isolated low HDL-c versus controls ...
