The effects of alcohol withdrawal on total and segmental transit time were evaluated in 20 chronic alcoholic subjects. After withdrawal, colorectal transit time significantly increased from 24.9±3.6 to 33.3±4.5 hours mean ±SE(P<0.01). This was the result of an exclusive increase in rectosigmoid transit time from 2.8±0.7 to 9.8±2.1 hours (P< 0.001). No variations were found in right or left colon transit time. Distal colonic motility is thus a crucial factor in the genesis of diarrhea in chronic alcoholic subjects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
