A group of 245 well nourished infants with acute diarrhea were screened for carbohydrate malabsorption by evaluating stool pH and reducing substances in the stools. Carbohydrate malabsorption was diagnosed in 28 cases (11%). Clinical features of carbohydrate intolerance were present in only one case. The duration of diarrhea after admission ranged from 1 to 13 days (mean 3.9 days). An oral lactose tolerance test was consistent with lactase deficiency in 32% of all cases. Thin layer chromatography showed many carbohydrates including monosaccharides in the stools, indicating that the defect in intestinal absorption was not specific for lactose.
通过评估粪便pH值和粪便中的还原物质，对245名营养良好的急性腹泻婴儿进行了碳水化合物吸收不良筛查。28例（11%）被诊断为碳水化合物吸收不良。仅1例出现碳水化合物不耐受的临床特征。入院后腹泻持续时间为1至13天（平均3.9天）。口服乳糖耐量试验在所有病例中有32%与乳糖酶缺乏一致。薄层色谱显示粪便中有许多碳水化合物，包括单糖，表明肠道吸收缺陷并非乳糖特异性的。
