One-hour blood-xylose concentrations after an oral xylose load were measured in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and healthy controls. The mean of the 1-hour blood-xylose values was significantly increased in the group with CF. The finding confirms an earlier observation by Rolles et al. (1973). Its significance is not at present understood but it suggests that small intestinal function should be further investigated in CF.
对患有囊性纤维化(CF)的儿童和健康对照者测量了口服木糖负荷后1小时的血木糖浓度。CF组1小时血木糖值的平均值显著升高。这一发现证实了Rolles等人(1973年)早期的观察结果。目前尚不清楚其意义,但这表明应进一步研究CF患者的小肠功能。
