A quarter of a century ago Professor C. F. M. Saint of the University of Cape Town noted the occasional association of diverticular disease, hiatus hernia, and gallstones in a patient. The occurrences of these diseases, and the significance of their associations, are discussed. The suggestion is made that the diseases are casually related to the consumption of fibre-depleted diets.
25年前，开普敦大学的C. F. M. 圣特教授注意到一名患者身上憩室病、食管裂孔疝和胆结石偶尔并存的情况。本文讨论了这些疾病的发生情况及其关联的意义。有人提出，这些疾病与食用低纤维饮食存在偶然联系。
