Cow's milk intolerance with melena

J Kokkonen, S Similä

    European Journal of Pediatrics
    |December 1, 1980

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Latent cow's milk intolerance (LCMI) in infants presents differently than cow's milk-induced malabsorption (CMI). Gastrin levels, acid secretion, and biopsy findings help distinguish these conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Gastroenterology
    • Clinical Nutrition
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Cow's milk intolerance is a common issue in infants, presenting with varied clinical manifestations.
    • Distinguishing between different forms of cow's milk intolerance is crucial for appropriate management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To differentiate latent cow's milk intolerance (LCMI) from cow's milk-induced malabsorption (CMI) in infants.
    • To identify key clinical and diagnostic markers for LCMI.

    Main Methods:

    • Comparative analysis of clinical features, gastric secretory function, and duodenojejunal morphology.
    • Gastric and duodenojejunal biopsies were performed.
    • Fasting serum gastrin levels and maximal acid secretion were measured.

    Main Results:

    • Infants with LCMI showed decreased maximal acid secretion and elevated fasting serum gastrin compared to controls.
    • Gastric biopsies revealed epithelial changes in LCMI cases.
    • Increased eosinophils were noted in LCMI biopsies, with a less significant rise in intraepithelial lymphocytes compared to CMI.

    Conclusions:

    • Latent cow's milk intolerance (LCMI) appears to be a distinct clinical entity.
    • Fasting serum gastrin, maximal gastric acid secretion, and duodenojejunal biopsy findings are valuable diagnostic tools for LCMI.
