1. Faecal occult blood testing was not done.

2. Support for this comes from the finding that faecal protease activity, largely derived from bacteria, is increased threefold in colitis.

3. Consequently, the lytic activity of faecal water was decreased. Dietary phosphate did not interfere with these intestinal effects of calcium.

4. Less rewarding techniques are those based on faecal examination, either by flotation or by the Baerman method.

5. In contrast, Rijk etal evaluated the faecal excretions of healthy volunteers with accelerated transit time after a single dose.

6. On day 10, 20, and 34 a faecal sample was collected for measurement of bacterial counts and metabolic activity.

7. This study confirms previous findings that faecal bile acid losses are increased appreciably in patients with cystic fibrosis.

8. The bile acid concentration in faecal water also decreased with increasing dietary calcium, and this was not influenced by dietary phosphate.

9. Faecal bile acid loss in cystic fibrosis is unrelated to the presence of intraluminal fat or intestinal bacterial overgrowth.

10. This was coupled with an increased faecal bile acid concentration and proportion of secondary faecal bile acids.

11. A large abdominal faecal mass was palpated in 42% of patients,[sentencedict.com] indicating a severe form of constipation.

12. Whether this approach offers advantages over faecal occult blood testing remains to be established.

13. We subsequently determined the soluble faecal concentrations of calcium, phosphate, fatty acids, and bile acids.

14. The authors used a rise in faecal fat as an objective measure for toxicity.

15. The second important finding from this study is the significant correlation between faecal wet weight and stool fat.

16. Similar difficulties arise in the interpretation of another study of polyp patients that showed no differences in faecal bile acid excretion.

17. Furthermore, dietary manipulation studies have shown that high fat intake can increase faecal bile acid excretion.

18. Abnormalities in the inhibition of motility during sleep should be evaluated in patients who report nocturnal faecal incontinence.

19. In a recent study colonoscopy was performed on 210 asymptomatic subjects aged 50-75 years with negative faecal occult bloods.

20. In the chronic disease eggs are present and L3 can be identified following faecal culture.

21. This may explain the predominance of rectosigmoid cancers detected by faecal occult blood testing.

22. Intake of diary products was less in the patients and probably contributed to the normal faecal fat excretion.

23. An unkempt coat will provide a refuge for parasites, and if soiled with faecal matter is likely to attract flies.

24. The absorption of 5-ASA by the colon is poor, resulting in very low serum and urine concentrations and high faecal concentrations.

25. Not all studies support a direct link between fat malabsorption and faecal bile acid losses.

26. Only one of four studies in polyps has shown any increase in faecal bile acid excretion in this group.

27. It would also facilitate reflex defecation and predispose to faecal incontinence.

28. The number of bowel actions in each three day faecal collection was also recorded.

29. Since much of the pathogenic effect occurs within the prepatent period, the faecal egg count may be very low.

30. Extensive preparation of the gastrointestinal tract is required to ensure the bowel is free from faecal matter.
