Effects of lactose on intestinal calcium absorption in normal and lactase-deficient subjects
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of lactose on intestinal calcium absorption was studied in 12 normal-lactase subjects and 7 lactase-deficient subjects, with or without the presence of an oral load of 50 g of lactic acid in each subject.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current facts on para-osteo-arthropathy (POA)
A Rossier,Ph Bussat,Infante F,R Zender,B Courvoisier,G Muheim,A. Donath,H Vasey,W Taillard,R Lagier,G Gabbiani,C A Baud,J A Pouezat,J.M. Very,H J Hachen +14 more
TL;DR: Serial bone scans seem to be the most reliable parameter for deciding when a POA is mature and may be operated, and serial determinations of serum alkaline phosphatase are next in order of reliability in following the evolution of POA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium absorption from milk in lactase-deficient subjects
TL;DR: Data indicate that Ca is absorbed equally well from milk as from water solution; (+) favors Ca absorption inLD subjects, which suggests that milk ingestion might be encouraged in LD subjects to avoid Ca deficiency; and (-) should be a valuable alternative for lactose-intolerant patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of absorbable and nonabsorbable sugars on intestinal calcium absorption in humans
Griessen M,P.V. Speich,Infante F,P. Bartholdi,B. Cochet,A. Donath,B. Courvoisier,J.-P. Bonjour +7 more
TL;DR: Results show that both glucose and galactose exert the same stimulatory effect as lactose on calcium absorption in subjects with normal lactase whereas lactitol mimics the effects of lactose in lactase-deficient patients.
Journal Article

TL;DR: The results indicate that simultaneous counting of gamma- and beta-activities of an appropriate plasma or urine sample provides a good and rapid measure of the calcium absorption.
