| 1 | There was a significant negative correlation between breath hydrogen excretion and mouth to caecum transit time suggesting that with shorter transit times significantly more carbohydrates were spilled into the colon . |
| 2 | The negative correlation we have found between MCTT and breath H 2 excretion suggests that with shorter transit times more carbohydrates are spilled into the colon . |
| 3 | The results of segmental transit time are given in Table II . |
| 4 | There was no significant change in the median transit time after healing of oesophagitis ( 9 v 9 and 17 v 24 seconds for erect and supine postures respectively ) . |
| 5 | A recent study , however , showed an association between diets high in refined sugar and prolonged mouth-to-anus transit time ( radioopaque markers ) , despite a reduced mouth-to-caecum transit time ( H 2 breath test ) . |
| 6 | Motility was then assessed in each patient by non-invasive tests : gastric emptying was measured by means of solid radioopaque markers , gall bladder contraction in response to cholecystokinin 8 stimulation by ultrasonography , mouth-to-caecum transit time by using the lactulose hydrogen breath test , and colonic transit time again by means of indigestible radioopaque markers . |
| 7 | Breath hydrogen analysis after oral lactulose containing meals is an easy , non-invasive , bedside test to measure mouth-to-caecum transit time . |
| 8 | In rural Third World communities the average transit time is one and a half days ; in Western countries it is about three days in young healthy adults ; among the elderly it is often over two weeks . |
| 9 | It has to be pointed out , however , that we selected asymptomatic patients and thus total colonic transit times have still to be considered in the high normal range . |
| 10 | A prolonged colonic transit time may be expected to result in increased bacterial metabolism of bile acids , and the observation that an increased proportion of secondary bile acids was strongly correlated with a prolonged bowel transit time is therefore of interest . |
| 11 | There was no correlation between disturbed gastric clearance , impaired gall bladder contraction , and prolonged colonic transit time in the patients with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy nor was there a correlation between any disturbed motor function and age or duration of diabetes . |
| 12 | Thus , in the present study we evaluated gastric clearance of indigestible markers , orocaecal transit time , colonic transit time , and gall bladder contraction in two groups of diabetic patients who differed as to whether they had or did not have signs of autonomic neuropathy affecting the cardiovascular system . |
| 13 | Colonic transit time |
| 14 | Colonic transit time was assessed by means of radioopaque markers . |
| 15 | Colonic transit time was calculated as 1.2×the sum of markers in the colon . |
| 16 | COLONIC TRANSIT TIME |
| 17 | Mean colonic transit time was 35.4 ( 4.7 ) hours in patients without cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy , being much shorter ( p<0.02 ) than in patients with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in whom it averaged 53.8 ( 5.5 ) hours . |
| 18 | Motility was then assessed in each patient by non-invasive tests : gastric emptying was measured by means of solid radioopaque markers , gall bladder contraction in response to cholecystokinin 8 stimulation by ultrasonography , mouth-to-caecum transit time by using the lactulose hydrogen breath test , and colonic transit time again by means of indigestible radioopaque markers . |
| 19 | Colonic transit time was significantly longer in the patients with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy . |
| 20 | We did not find a correlation between disturbed gastric emptying , impaired gall bladder contraction , and prolonged colonic transit time in the patients with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy ; also , there was no correlation between any disturbed motor function and age or longstanding history of diabetes . |
| 21 | Information concerning motility of the entire colon has been obtained by indirect measures such as the movement of radioopaque markers or barium to assess colonic transit time . |
| 22 | Oral caecal transit times were not significantly different in the two patient groups , whereas colonic transit was slower in the patients with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy compared with the group without cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy ( p<0.02 ) . |
| 23 | In addition , infusion of PYY inhibits gastric emptying and prolongs the mouth to caecal transit time in man . |
| 24 | We found two women ( 6% ) who had rapid transit time and could be considered as having clinical diarrhoea but neither had consulted a doctor about it and we do not know when their diarrhoea began in relation to their operation . |
| 25 | Now modern research clearly indicates that a good speedy transit time and daily effortless evacuation of soft stool is indeed a vital protective factor in maintaining our health . |
| 26 | In contrast , Rijk et al evaluated the faecal excretions of healthy volunteers with accelerated transit time after a single dose . |
| 27 | There are limitations to the use of scintigraphy in children with pseudo-obstruction , such as the very long transit time for orally ingested capsules to reach the colon , the impossibility of peroral cannulation of the right colon , and the poor patient cooperation with lying quietly under a gamma camera . |
| 28 | Compared with all the women with the gall bladder present and an intact uterus , that is the same control group as used for the women with hysterectomy , women who had had cholecystectomy were no different with respect to all four indices of bowel function ; for example their estimated transit time was 64 ( SD 27 ) hours v 63 ( SD 23 ) hours . |
| 29 | In this population women who had had hysterectomy were more constipated than women with an intact uterus assessed by several criteria : more infrequency of defecation and slower transit time ( in older women ) , more straining at stool by both report and record , and a greater tendency to regard themselves as constipated . |
| 30 | In radionuclide transite the calculated indices were the time when 5% and 90% of the radionuclide dose appeared in the stomach , emptying time of the distal oesophageal third to 25% activity value , mean transit time , and residual activity in the distal fluid . |
