Title: [Monosaccharide malabsorption syndrome]. Author: Valenkevich LN. Journal: Vopr Pitan; 1987; (6):24-6. PubMed ID: 3439082. Abstract: Pathogenesis of disorders in the transport of monosaccharides in the intestinal epithelial cells has been considered. Criteria for the diagnosis of primary and secondary malabsorption of monosaccharides have been discussed. Characteristics of the clinical picture, differential diagnosis and therapeutic measures have been presented. A case has been described of primary malabsorption of glucose and galactose in a woman aged 38 years. Possible ways of compensation of the transport disorders with age are discussed. It is noted that in chronic enteritis the enzymatic system in the intestinal mucosa is impaired earlier than the transport system.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
