Pectin and high-amylose maize starch increase caecal hydrogen production and relieve hepatic ischaemia-reperfusion injury in rats. [PDF]
, 2012 We investigated whether the feeding of high H2-generating dietary fibre and resistant starch (RS) could suppress hepatic ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, which results from oxidative stress, in rats fed a pectin (Pec) or high-amylose maize starch (HAS)

The ‘Mystery’ of Opioid‐Induced Diarrhea
Pain Research and Management, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 197-199, 2011., 2011 Bowel dysfunction, mainly constipation, is a well‐known and anticipated side effect of opioids. The physician prescribing an opioid frequently confronts the challenge of preventing and treating bowel dysfunction. Different strategies have emerged for managing opioid‐induced constipation.

Molecular genetics of adult‐type hypolactasia
Annals of Medicine, 2005 Adult-type hypolactasia (lactase non-persistence; primary lactose malabsorption) is characterized by the down-regulation of the lactase enzyme activity in the intestinal wall after weaning. The down-regulation is genetically determined and a mutation has occurred that has made part of mankind tolerate milk (lactase persistence).
