| Popis: | A six-month prospective study to identify malabsorbing alcoholic cirrhotics was performed in a 500-bed general medical and surgical Veterans Administration Hospital. Of 50 patients with alcoholic liver disease, only 9 met the criteria of, cirrhosis and malabsorption. Six of these subjects were studied using pancreozymin-secretin tests and Lundh tests meals. Only 1 of the 6 malabsorbing cirrhotics had distinctly abnormal test results from both methods of study. |
