[Changes in the digestibility of constituents of the diet in the rabbit].

Fiber digestibility of two diets (the first based on alfalfa dried, the second based on beet-pulp dried) with the same level of crude fiber and crude protein was measured on rabbits of 6, 7, 11, 13 and 17 weeks old. The age has no significative effect on digestibility (dry matter, organic matter, crude fiber) of the two experimental diets. The quantity of cellulose and hemicellulose digested was greater in rabbits on the pulp diet. Independantly of the diet hemicellulose is more digestible than cellulose. Expediency of use other analytical test than crude fiber in the nutritional requirements of rabbits is discussed.

[Pharyngo-laryngeal consequences of gastroesophageal reflux. Value of esophageal pH measurements in 74 patients].

Ambulatory 24 hour oesophageal pH monitoring was performed in order to detect gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in 74 patients presenting with poorly explained ear-nose-throat complaints. A significant number of these patients also benefited from other currently used methods for diagnosing GERD. Oesophageal pH-monitoring demonstrated GERD in half of the patients. For atypical GERD, 24 hour oesophageal pH-monitoring seems to be the most sensitive procedure.
