Enquiry has been made into the bowel habit of 1245 rural Africans of Uganda. The range of normal bowel habit in the village African may be defined as between one and four bulky motions daily of stool that is soft or loose in consistency. This confirms the prevailing impressions; however, other aspects of the bowel habit were at variance with current opinion, and similar to findings from surveys of western populations.
对乌干达1245名农村非洲人的排便习惯进行了调查。非洲农村居民正常排便习惯的范围可定义为每天1至4次大量排便，粪便质地柔软或疏松。这证实了普遍的印象；然而，排便习惯的其他方面与当前观点不一致，且与西方人群的调查结果相似。
