Utilization of different quantities of fat at high altitude.
Rai RM, Malhotra MS, Dimri GP, Sampathkumar T.
Investigations on utilization of fats have been carried out at altitudes of 3,500, 3,800, and 4,700 m, respectively, on 27, 7, and 12 soldiers staying at these altitudes for over 4 months in tentage accommodation. At 3,500 m the fat utilization was 95.9, 96.2, and 96.6% on intakes of 128, 168, and 198 g fat/day. At 3,800 m on maximum fat intake of 364 g/day, the fecal fat content was 11.48 g and percentage digestibility 96.9. At 4,700 m the digestibility was 97.5% on a fat intake of 232 g/day. Urine examination did not reveal ketone bodies on any of these fat intakes. Neither was there any incidence of constipation nor diarrhea. While 364 g of fat/day could not be fully consumed, digestibilty was not affected up to an intake of 324 g/day though, at this intake there was feeling of thirst at night. Thus, digestibility and utilization of dietary fats up to 324 g at 3,800 m and 232 g at 4,700 m are not distrubed.

Vagotomy and double pyloroplasty for peptic ulcer.
Hines JR, Geurkink RE, Kornmesser TA, Wikholm L, Davis RP.
Seventy patients with peptic ulcers (55 duodenal and 15 gastric) were treated by truncal vagotomy and doulbe pyloroplasty during the past four years. Clinical and experimental data as presented lead us to believe that transecting the pylorus twice produces an incontinent pyloric sphincter and a larger gastric outlet than is found in other methods of pyloroplasty. This decreases gastric stasis and has led to a lower ulcer recurrence rate (1.5%). In addition the untoward postoperative sequelae are minimal. The 70 patients treated (for the most pare consecutive cases) exhibited the usual complications of peptic ulcer disease. Thirty-three had intractable pain, 23 bleeding (15 massive), 13 obstruction, and one acute perforation. There were no operative or postoperative deaths and the only serious postoperative complication was unrelated to the double pyloroplasty. During the followup period four patients have died of unrelated diseases. Of the remaining 66 patients one developed a probable recurrent peptic ulcer which has responded to medical management. Four patients have intermittent dumping, three have mild diarrhea and one has failed to gain weight, Constipation and weight gain are more common complaints. It would appear that vagotomy with double pyloroplasty is a safe and effective operation for peptic ulcers and that further clinical trials are warranted.

Prestenotic enteritis and enterocolitis in children: Description of a syndrome and review of five cases.
Smith EI, Gill CC.
A clinical syndrome of prestenotic enteritis and enterocolitis consisting of abdominal distention and pain, intermittent diarrhea and constipation, failure to thrive, fever and in some patients, extreme prostration and death is described. The pathogenesis of this enteritis and enterocolitis apparently is related to partial mechanical obstruction of the bowel with proximal dilatation, stagnation, and capillary stasis. Acute relief from the enteritis and enterocolitis may be obtained by stomal dilatation and colonic irrigation; however, all patients in our series required surgical intervention. because mortality in this disease is significant and the results with early surgical intervention are favorable, surgical intervention is encouraged at the first sign of prestenotic enteritis or enterocolitis in children. Surgical correction of the distal stenosis produced a growth spurt in the two successfully treated patients without other growth-limiting disease.
