To evaluate the effect of a subacute administration of oligomineral water "S. Croce Sponga" in subjects affected by chronic constipation.
Hospitalized patients (13 females and 4 males) have been classified according to radiologically evaluated transit times if affected by colonic or rectal constipation, and by clinical interview if suffering from chronic colonic constipation due to increased resistance or hypomotility. Treatment consisted in the administration of 1.5 litres/day of S. Croce Sponga oligomineral water for 7 days or a control water of known composition. The study started after seven days of hospital stay.
The results of the study showed that S. Croce Sponga oligomineral water was effective in resolving the condition of chronic colonic constipation in almost 80% of the subjects. No effect was observed in subjects with chronic rectal constipation.
Treatment with S. Croce Sponga oligomineral water resolved chronic colonic constipation by enhancing velocity of the colonic transit.
评估亚急性给予“圣十字海绵”低矿化水对慢性便秘患者的疗效。
住院患者（13名女性和4名男性），若患有结肠或直肠便秘，则根据放射学评估的转运时间进行分类；若因阻力增加或动力不足而患有慢性结肠便秘，则通过临床访谈进行分类。治疗方法为每天饮用1.5升“圣十字海绵”低矿化水，持续7天，或饮用已知成分的对照水。研究在患者住院7天后开始。
研究结果表明，“圣十字海绵”低矿化水对近80%的受试者的慢性结肠便秘状况有改善作用。对慢性直肠便秘患者未观察到效果。
饮用“圣十字海绵”低矿化水通过提高结肠转运速度解决了慢性结肠便秘问题。
