  • Title: [Cavitary and membranous digestion in patients with chronic enteritis].
    Author: Valenkevich LN.
    Journal: Ter Arkh; 1988; 60(2):80-3. PubMed ID: 3368869.
    Abstract:
    The method of aspiration biopsy and carbohydrate and lipid tolerance tests were employed for a study of cavitary and membranous digestion in 59 patients. This disease was characterized by an irregular decrease in the level of various enzymes and the rates of absorption of nutritional monomers. The clinical symptoms of disease were shown to be caused by structural changes in the intestinal mucous membrane leading to a syndrome of intolerance of some nutrients. In a grave course of disease membranous digestion remained considerably lowered in spite of therapeutic measures.
