Quick Test: A New Test for the Diagnosis of Duodenal Hypolactasia

open access: yesDigestive Diseases and Sciences, 2007
The hydrogen (H2) lactose breath test (BT) is a test commonly used for the diagnosis of hypolactasia. However, its sensitivity is not always good. In the last few years, the new Quick Lactase Test (QLT) has been developed for endoscopic diagnosis of adult-type hypolactasia.

Adult-type hypolactasia and regulation of lactase expression

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - General Subjects, 2005
A common genetically determined polymorphism in the human population leads to two distinct phenotypes in adults, lactase persistence and adult-type hypolactasia (lactase non-persistence). All healthy newborn children express high levels of lactase and are able to digest large quantities of lactose, the main carbohydrate in milk.

Cellular basis of adult‐type hypolactasia

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, 1994
In the proximal jejunum and distal ileum of adult rabbits and rats, the lactase protein and lactase activity are present only in patches of enterocytes, located principally on the lower part of the villi, whereas in the mid‐small intestine, lactase is present in all the villus enterocytes.

Genetics and Epidemiology of Adult-type Hypolactasia

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1994
The prevalence of adult-type hypolactasia varies from less than 5% to almost 100% between different populations of the world. The lowest prevalence has been found in northwestern Europe, around the North Sea, and the highest prevalence in the Far East. The reason for the variation is that selective (primary) hypolactasia is genetically determined by an

Hypolactasia and the Irritable Colon Syndrome

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1972
Jejunal biopsy with disaccharidase assay has been performed on 81 patients with the irritable colon syndrome. Most of the patients were British natives and of British stock. Nine of them (12.3%) had hypolactasia, a proportion which is only a little higher than has been found in healthy British volunteers and in other control subjects. A small number of

Beneficial effects of oral tilactase on patients with hypolactasia

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2008
ABSTRACTBackground A lactose‐free diet is commonly prescribed to subjects with hypolactasia. We tested the effectiveness of a single ingestion of tilactase (a β‐d‐galactosidase fromAspergillus oryzae) in adults with hypolactasia, previously assessed by lactose H2‐breath test.Materials and methods After measurement of orocecal transit time (OCTT, by ...

BREATH HYDROGEN AS A DIAGNOSTIC METHOD FOR HYPOLACTASIA

Lancet, The, 1975
Breath hydrogen (H2), collected by end-expiratory sampling, was measured in twenty-five patients with abdominal symptoms or diarrhoea after ingesting 50 g. of lactose. This was compared with established tests of hypolactasia. Fifteen patients with a blood-glucose rise of more than 20 mg. per 100 ml.
