Abstract
Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) impairs fat absorption, but few data are available on protein absorption. We investigated this question in patients with chronic pancreatitis, both in the absence and presence of enzyme therapy, using a stable isotope sensitive method.Eleven patients with sustained PEI and regular enzyme substitution were investigated at hospital, after a washout period without enzyme substitution, and later after...
