Prevalence of postenteritis XXXX 's milk protein intolerance.

@entity1 @entity697 @entity1902 @entity291 @entity526
The object of this study was to ascertain the frequency of postinfectious @entity291 's milk protein hypersensitivity (CMPH). Twenty-four @entity1 less than 3 months old were included in the study. Following hospitalization for @entity697 , the @entity1 were given a protein hydrolysate formula for a period of 6 weeks, after which an intestinal biopsy was performed. Thereafter, a milk challenge was given. The existence of CMPH was defined as a postchallenge reduction of one or more of the mucosal disaccharidases below the normal levels for our laboratory. A bacterial etiology of the @entity1902 was found in 10. Nineteen @entity1 had no adverse reaction to @entity291 's milk after 6 weeks on a hypoallergenic formula. Only two could be confidently diagnosed as having developed secondary CMPH; both had been infected by @entity526 0 111. One @entity1 had primary CMPH and one extra-intestinal CMPH. The incidence of secondary CMPH with gastrointestinal manifestations in this series was considerably less than described elsewhere.
