    Notes: Abstract The aim of this work was to analyze clinical symptoms in light of anorectal manometry results. We compared the frequency of clinical symptoms in relation with the presence or absence of functional anomalies. Using this methodology, the following relationships may be suggested: the need to wear a pad, with a decreased resting pressure at the upper part of the anal canal; the inability to delay rectal evacuation, with decreased anal voluntary contraction; interference of incontinence with social activities, with decreased duration of anal voluntary contraction; urinary symptoms, with an increased threshold volume of rectal distention needed to elicit the rectoanal inhibitory reflex; and complete rectal prolapse, with reduced length of the anal canal.

    Association between gastrointestinal tract carriage ofCandida, blood group O, and nonsecretion of blood group antigens in patients with peptic ulcer (1993)

    Notes: Abstract Of 112 patients with peptic ulcer disease examined for oral carriage ofCandida, 66 (59%) were carriers.Candida carriage was associated with blood group O (P〈0.05) and, independently, with nonsecretion of blood group antigens (P〈0.01). For each subject, the presence or absence of yeasts was found to be a constant characteristic, and only among patients positive forCandida was blood group O or nonsecretion more frequent than expected in the general population. The quantity of yeasts isolated was significantly greater in patients than in normal subjects (P〈0.002), as was the frequency of carriage in the patient population (59% vs 32%). This increase was not associated with treatment with H2-receptor antagonists. The results of paired oral and gastroduodenal aspirate cultures suggested that identifyingCandida in the oral cavity was a good indicator of the presence of yeasts elsewhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Mechanisms whereby overgrowth ofCandida in the upper gastrointestinal tract might contribute to the inflammatory background of peptic ulcer disease are discussed.
