CALCIUM METABOLISM IN MAN WITH CALCIUM-45: MALABSORPTION SYNDROME AND EXUDATIVE ENTEROPATHY

DOI:https://doi.org/10.1038/191872a0· OSTI ID:4843781

Case studies are presented of four patients with either the malabsorption syndrome or exudative enteropathy. In all, radiological examination of the small intestine was typical; dilatation or hypertony of loops and dilution or scattering of barium. Examination of calcium metabolism was carried out with calcium-45. Steatorrhea was demonstrated by the triolein-I/sup 131/ test, and protein loss into the intestine was determined indirectly by means of the PVP-I/sup 131/ test. (P.C.H.)
