Abstract
Background: HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU)-infants have been shown to be particularly vulnerable to infections. In this population, disturbance of the gut micro-environment might increase their susceptibility to enteric diseases and even favour the translocation of bacteria in the bloodstream. Methods: The gastro-intestinal micro-environment was explored in 22 HEU infants and 16 HIV-unexposed (HU) infants aged 6-24 weeks. Faecal leucocytes, firmicutes (gram-positive bacteria) and gracilicutes (gram-negative bacteria) were assessed by cytology. Faecal lactoferrin and sIgA were measured by ELISA. The spectrum of micro-organisms in infants' stool was analysed by culturing. Results: HEU infants were 14 times more likely to have leucocytes in their stool than HU infants (p < 0.005). The lactoferrin level was significantly lower in HEU infants than in HU infants (p = 0.02). Potentially pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli were more prevalent in HEU than in HU infants (64% vs 23.5%). Also, E. coli strains resistant to key antibiotics including co-trimoxazole, β-lactam (cephalosporins included) and tetraclines were observed in some HEU infants. Conclusion: HEU infants are more likely to present an inflamed digestive tract as highlighted by the presence of leucocytes. In addition, there is a real risk of colonisation of HEU infants' microbiota by resistant micro-organisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to identify familial and community environmental risk factors associated with Helicobacter pylori infection in a pediatric population. METHODS Children requiring diagnostic upper endoscopy were included in the study during a 2-year period. During endoscopy, five gastric biopsies were performed for the histologic or bacteriologic diagnosis, or both, of H. pylori infection. Epidemiologic data collected by a questionnaire were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher test and stepwise logistic regression. RESULTS The authors included 436 patients (242 boys), aged 2 days to 17.9 years (median, 2.7 years). H. pylori prevalence was 7.3%. Univariate analysis found H. pylori was more common in older patients (P < 0.00001), in children who had at least one parent born in a developing country (P < 0.02) or with a low socioeconomic status (P < 0.02), and in those living in crowded conditions (P < 0.02). Children whose mother worked at home were more frequently infected than children whose mother worked outside the home (P < 0.02). Attendance at nursery or school before the age of 6 years was not associated with infection. Logistic regression showed a strong association with H. pylori only for age and number of persons at home. CONCLUSIONS The source of H. pylori is intrafamilial rather than from a community, such as nursery and school attended at a young age. The number of persons in the home influences the infection status of children but not by the presence of the mother in home. These data suggest that H. pylori infection transmission occurs from siblings or the father rather than from mother.

Abstract
High fat containing diets lower VCO(2)in patients with impaired pulmonary function fed at a high level of energy intake. We tested the effect of a high fat enteral nutrition on VCO(2)and substrate oxidation in cystic fibrosis patients fed enterally 130% RDA. VCO(2)and substrate oxidation were studied in a group of eight 6-19 year old patients while receiving for 1 month and in a random order isocaloric (1000 kcal/m(2)), isonitrogenous enteral diet with a normal fat and a high fat content (40% and 67% of non-protein energy intake). Substrate oxidation and net balance were estimated using indirect calorimetry at the end of each study period. Overnight high fat enteral infusion resulted in no significant change in VCO(2)and VO(2)but lowered RQ (0.84 +/- 0.01 vs 0.88 +/- 0.01, P= 0.02) and non-protein RQ (0.83 +/- 0.01 vs 0.88 +/- 0.01). In spite of a higher glucose oxidation rate (8.1 +/- 0.5 vs 6.3 +/- 0.5 g. h(-1), P= 0.04), glucose net balance was significantly higher during normal fat formula administration (+2.5 +/- 0.8 v -0.3 7plusmn; 0.7 g/h, P< 0.05). The present study failed to show any benefit of a high fat diet on VCO(2)in non oxygenodependant cystic fibrosis children and adolescents fed slightly above RAD. Normal fat enteral formula led to higher glycogen repletion.

Abstract
Our aim was to collect a large number of cases to characterize clinical presentation, outcome, and prognosis of chronic intestinal pseusoobstruction in children. We conducted a retrospective multicenter study that included children treated for chronic intestinal pseusoobstruction defined as recurrent episodes of intestinal obstruction with no mechanical obstruction, excluding Hirschsprung's disease. In all, 105 children, 57 boys and 48 girls, were studied, including five familial forms. Prenatal diagnosis was made in 18 patients. Eighty patients were less than 12 months old at onset; the disease began at birth for 37 patients. The most frequent signs were abdominal distension, vomiting, and constipation. Megacystis was noted in myopathies (7 cases), neuropathies (10 cases) and unclassified forms (13 cases). For all but three cases (two patients with CMV infection, one with Munchhausen-by-proxy syndrome), the associated diseases and disorders could not account for chronic intestinal pseusoobstruction as a secondary disorder. At least one full-thickness biopsy from the digestive tract was studied for 99 patients. The diagnosis recorded was visceral neuropathy in 58 cases, visceral myopathy in 17 cases, and uncertain or normal biopsy results in 24 cases. Seventy-eight children were fed intravenously, and only 18 were able to be fed orally throughout their illness. Seventy-one patients underwent surgery during their illness, and 217 surgical procedures, a mean of 3 per patient, were performed. Ostomy was the most performed procedure. Follow-up continued in 89 patients for 3 months to 16 years (mean 85 months). Forty-two patients were still fed by parenteral (39 patients) or enteral nutrition (3 patients) at the time of the study. Eleven patients died between the age of 1 month and 14 years 7 months.

Abstract
Nutritional support is often necessary in chronic liver disease in childhood, and when enteral nutrition is insufficient, parenteral nutrition (PN) can be envisaged as a last resort. Pediatric experience is still limited in this indication. Seven children with severe liver disease received PN for a mean duration of 105 d, with additional enteral nutrition. Clinical tolerance was assessed and anthropometric and biological data were compared at the beginning and at the end of the study by the paired non-parametric test of Wilcoxon. Weight change, expressed as weight-for-age or weight-for-height Z-scores, increased. Conjugated bilirubin increased significantly. This retrospective study suggests that PN is a well-tolerated method for maintaining nutritional status in pediatric chronic liver disease when enteral nutrition has failed.

Abstract
An aminoglycoside in association with beta-lactam antibiotic are usually the most efficient treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in cystic fibrosis patients. Tobramycin has the lower MICs than the other aminoglycosides to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The aim of the work was to compare pharmacokinetics of tobramycin after once daily (15 mg/kg/day; 11 patients) or thrice daily dose (5 mg/kg/day; 9 patients) in combination ceftazidime (CAZ 200 mg/day in 3 inj. IVD) in sputum and sera for two weeks. No statistical difference in the serum concentration obtained in each group of patients was observed between the first and the 14th day. Serum concentrations were three fold higher when tobramycin was administered in once daily dose. Low through concentrations were quickly obtained, but they were slightly higher after thrice daily doses. Bronchial concentrations were 2 to 2.5 superior and near the critical concentration of tobramycin. The clinical efficacy were comparable in the two regimens.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare once daily with thrice daily tobramycin for treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in patients with cystic fibrosis. DESIGN 22 patients with cystic fibrosis, mean (SD) age 11 (3.4) years (range 5.6-19.3), with pulmonary pseudomonas exacerbations were randomly assigned to receive a 14 day course of tobramycin (15 mg/kg/day) either in three infusions (group A) (n = 10) or a single daily infusion (group B) (n = 12), combined with ceftazidime (200 mg/kg/day as three intravenous injections). Efficacy was assessed by comparison of pulmonary, nutritional, and inflammatory indices on days 1 and 14. Cochlear and renal tolerance were assessed on days 1 and 14. Tobramycin concentration was measured in serum and sputum 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, and 24 hours after the start of the infusion. Analysis was by non-parametric Wilcoxon test. RESULTS Variables improving (p < 0.05) in both groups A and B were, respectively: weight/height (+4% and +3.1%), plasma prealbumin (+66 and +63 mg/l), forced vital capacity (FVC) (+14% and +11%), forced expiratory volume in one second (+15% and +14%), and forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of FVC (+13% and +21%). Improvement was not significantly different between groups. Renal and cochlear indices remained within the normal range. Serum peak concentration of tobramycin on day 1 was 13.2 (7.1) mg/l in group A and 42.5 (11.2) mg/l in group B (p < 0.001); serum trough was 1.1 (0.8) mg/l in group A and 0.3 (0.2) mg/l in group B (p < 0.01). Tobramycin concentrations in sputum were two to three times higher in group B than group A. CONCLUSIONS Once daily tobramycin combined with three injections of ceftazidime is safe and effective for the treatment of pseudomonas exacerbations in cystic fibrosis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long term follow-up of children with esophageal caustic stenosis is not well known. The aim of the present study was to describe functional, organic and psychological, as well as social consequences. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-four children with a mean age of 3 years and 7 months +/- 3 years and 2 months (ranges: 1 month-14 years and 3 months) were included in a longitudinal study. Various parameters have been studied: treatment, functional symptoms, nutritional status (weight/height, body composition) and psychological and social consequences. chi 2 and Mann-Whitney tests were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Twenty-one patients have been treated by mechanical dilatations whereas surgery was performed in 12 children; the mean number of dilatations per child was higher in patients treated by dilatations (21 +/- 17 vs 14 +/- 16; P < 0.05). The frequency of dysphagia was not different in patients with colon interposition or not (69% vs 53%; P = 0.1). Nutritional status was not affected by the presence of esophageal caustic stenosis. Psychological and social consequences were characterized by scholastic difficulties, anxiety and severe depression. One case of suicide was observed. CONCLUSION Children with caustic stenosis should be followed for a long period of time. A multidisciplinary approach is necessary, taking into account medical, social and psychological consequences.

Abstract
A transversal study allowed to analyse the different features of severe bullous toxicodermatosis, and its relations with HIV infection. Since March 1992 to December 1995, 15 patients were hospitalized in Lome Teaching Hospital for severe bullous toxicodermatosis: 16 cases of Lyell's syndrome, 8 cases of Stevens-Johnson's syndrome and 1 case of ectodermosis. The principal drug which induced these diseases were mostly dominated by the sulfanilamide (n = 7). Nine (9) of these subjects were infected by the HIV (four of whose patients had Lyell's syndrome). Its noted five cases of death, all in the patients with HIV infection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the short term effects on nutritional status of home intravenous anti-pseudomonas antibiotic courses in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients chronically colonised with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. DESIGN A prospective study involving 38 CF patients, mean age 10.9 (SD 4.3) years (range 4.3 to 22.2 years), presenting with pulmonary exacerbations of P aeruginosa infection. The patients received a 14 day antibiotic course of intravenous ceftazidime (200 mg/kg/day) and either amikacin (35 mg/kg/day) or tobramycin (15 mg/kg/day). Nutritional evaluation on days 1 and 14 involved measurements of weight, weight/height ratio (per cent of predicted value), energy intake (per cent of recommended daily allowances), serum prealbumin, and body composition assessed by two methods: bioelectrical analysis (BIA) and skinfold anthropometry. The non-parametric Wilcoxon t test was used for statistical analysis, with a Bland-Altman plot to assess the degree of agreement between the two methods of evaluating body composition. RESULTS Weight increased by 1.0 (0.8) kg (p < 0.001); weight/height increased from 94.4(12.2)% to 98(12.7)% (p < 0.001), energy intake from 107(32)% to 119(41)% (p < 0.02), and prealbumin from 183 (63) to 276 (89) mg/l (p < 0.001). Fat mass increased by 0.8 (1.0) kg (p < 0.001), without any significant change in fat-free mass. The limits of agreement between BIA and anthropometry were -0.7 kg and +1.1 kg. CONCLUSIONS Antibiotic courses allow an improvement in nutritional status in CF patients, with a gain in fat mass.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is frequently used in the neonatal period. The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of the different lesions occurring as well as to precise indications of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in neonates. POPULATION AND METHODS A retrospective study including 107 neonates referred between October 1986 and April 1995 has been achieved in the pediatric gastroenterology unit of the Lille University Hospital. Various factors were analysed: gestational age, sex, reasons for endoscopy and macroscopic lesions observed. Three groups were constituted according to macroscopic findings; group I: normal aspect (n = 22); group II: isolated esophagitis (n = 27); group III: esogastritis or gastroduodenitis or esogastroduodenitis (n = 38). Chi 2 test was performed for statistical analysis. RESULTS Signs recalling esophagitis (cry during feeding) were more frequent in group II than in group III: 37% vs 13% (P < 0.03). The neonates undergoing endoscopy for life-threatening events were more frequent in group I than in group II or III, respectively: 59% vs 15% (P < 0.01) and 59% vs 8% (P < 10(-4). Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy led to a precise diagnosis in 80% of the neonates. However 95% of those examined for hematemesis presented macroscopic lesions. CONCLUSIONS Hematemesis and suspicion of esophagitis are good indications for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in neonatal period. In life-threatening events and suspicion of pyloric stenosis, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is only complementary of more contributive other examinations.

Abstract
A single daily dose of amikacin 35 mg/kg by i.v. infusion over 30 min in 18 cystic fibrosis patients achieved mean serum peak and trough concentrations of 121.4 mg/L (+/- 37.3) and 0.88 mg/L (+/- 0.62), respectively. Pharmacokinetic parameters and bronchial diffusion of amikacin showed marked inter-patient variability. The highest concentrations in sputum were obtained at 2 h (10.95 +/- 7.55 mg/L) and decreased slowly to reach a mean concentration of 2.14 mg/L (range 0.2-3.8 mg/L) just before the following infusion. An increase in the body clearance of amikacin and a decrease in the volume of distribution according to age were observed.

Abstract
To evaluate the nutritional consequences of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and its treatment, 15 children with leukemia were studied. Anthropometric data, fat-free mass by impedance, energy intake, and resting energy expenditure (REE) were determined at diagnosis and on days 22, 36, and 71 of the treatment. Interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6, interferon-gamma, and tumor necrosis factor were also measured. Fifteen healthy control subjects were matched for age and sex. Body weight and height and body composition were comparable at all times of the study, although three children were underweight at diagnosis (weight-for-height < 85% of French standards). Although two different methods were used for dietary recall in the two groups, energy intake expressed as a percentage of normal recommended values for age and sex was lower in patients than in control subjects (104 +/- 19%) on day 1 (47 +/- 32.1%) and day 22 (58 +/- 24%), but was comparable on day 36 (85 +/- 71%) and day 71 (85 +/- 48%). This low energy intake involved both carbohydrates and fats. Energy and carbohydrate intakes improved significantly during the study in patients. The nonprotein respiratory quotient (RQ) in patients was significantly lower than in control subjects (0.84 +/- 0.04) on day 1 (0.79 +/- 0.02) but was comparable on day 71. The REE of the patients on day 1 (5057.8 +/- 1588.4 kJ/24 h) and day 71 (4844.7 +/- 116.1 kJ/24 h) and of the control subjects (4313.8 +/- 823.5 kJ/24 h) was not significantly different. Cytokines remained undetectable on days 1, 36, and 71. The results showed that at the time of diagnosis and during this period of chemotherapy there was no evidence of raised REE. The poor intakes during the first month of chemotherapy were recent as shown by the parents' questionnaire responses and the absence of consequences in body composition. The transient decrease in RQ seemed to be an adaptative mechanism to the poor carbohydrate intake. No indication of undernutrition in the patients as a group was evident during the first 71 d of treatment although further long-term nutritional assessment is needed.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Anorexia and weight loss are frequently reported as adverse effects during recombinant interferon alpha (rIFN-alpha) treatment. The aim of the present study was to assess both nutritional status and growth of children and adolescents treated with rIFN-alpha for chronic viral hepatitis. Eleven patients aged 4-16 years with histologically proven chronic active hepatitis (hepatitis B, n = 9; hepatitis C, n = 2) receiving rIFN-alpha subcutaneously thrice a week for 6 months were studied. Weight and height increments were assessed during the 6 months before starting rIFN-alpha. Weight and height were measured every 3 months (M0, M3, M6) during the 6 months of rIFN-alpha treatment, then every 6 months during the follow up period (6-36 months). Weight decreased in every child during rIFN-alpha treatment (weight loss varies from 0.5 to 2.6 kg after 3 months of treatment). Weight/age Z-score decreased from 0.12 at M0 to -0.69 at M3 (P < 0.01), then increased between M3 and M6 (-0.33) (P < 0.01), but normalized (0.02) only 6 months after completion of treatment. Nutritional status was significantly impaired during treatment (Z-score for weight/height decreased from 0.18 at M0 to -0.74 at M3, P < 0.01) and recovered progressively thereafter. Height and height velocity were not modified by rIFN-alpha treatment. A reduction of the caloric intake observed between M0 and M3 might explain these features. CONCLUSION Significant but transient abnormalities of the nutritional status are encountered constantly at the beginning of rIFN-alpha therapy without any deleterious effect on growth. Information of the families and nutritional intervention during treatment should be required, in order to limit the importance of weight loss.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Twenty cystic fibrosis patients aged 1.8-22 years (mean +/- SD: 9.6 +/- 4.8 years) with Pseudomonas aeruginosa pulmonary exacerbations were treated with amikacin (AM) (35 mg/kg/day in one daily 30 min infusion) associated with either ceftazidime (200 mg/kg/day in 3 i.v. injections) (n = 19) or imipenem (n = 1) at the same dose. Glomerular and tubular functions (creatinine clearance, 24-h proteinuria, beta 2 microglobulinuria, lysozymuria) and audiometry remained within normal ranges from day 0 to day 14. A peak concentration of AM of 83 +/- 19 mg/l and a trough concentration of 0.8 +/- 0.5 mg/l were observed in blood while AM levels in sputum were above the minimal inhibitory concentration 50 from 30 min to 16 h. No serum accumulation of AM was observed during the treatment. From day 0 to day 14, the following changes were observed: weight/height ratio: 96%-100% (P < 0.001); daily energy intake: 111%-128% of RDA (P < 0.001); prealbumin: 195-290 mg/l (P < 0.001); forced vital capacity (FVC): 66%-81% (P < 0.01); forced expiratory volume in 1 s: 60%-75% (P < 0.01); forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of FVC: 42%-56% (P < 0.01); nocturnal SaO2 also improved significantly; cardiac rate decreased from 89 +/- 18/min to 76 +/- 16/min (P < 0.001); respiratory rate decreased from 31 +/- 15/min to 26 +/- 10/min (P < 0.05); inflammatory parameters (white blood cells, polymorphonuclear cells, erythrocyte sedimentation rate) also improved. CONCLUSION Once daily amikacin administration associated with ceftazidime is well tolerated for the treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa pulmonary exacerbations in cystic fibrosis patients. Serum peak levels and diffusion in sputum are higher than with a conventional schedule.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal involvement in von Recklinghausen's disease (RD) is rare during childhood; its symptoms are late and its prognosis is poor, related to local recurrence and risk of malignant transformation. CASE REPORT A 13 year-old boy was admitted for hematemesis revealing gastric ulcer. A second episode of hematemesis led to identify a sessile gastric tumor in this patient having numerous skin café-au-lait spots. Recurrent bleeding required laparotomy that showed diffuse infiltration into the anterior gastric wall: histological examination of the excised piece showed characteristic features of neurofibromatosis. The patient was not compliant to the endosonographic survey so that a symptomatic relapse led to total gastrectomy: histological examination did not show malignant transformation. CONCLUSION Endoscopy is a major tool for identifying gastrointestinal localization of RD but endosonography is necessary to precise the extent of the tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Published studies on the association between HLA class II genes and inflammatory bowel disease are contradictory perhaps because of the limited size and ethnic heterogeneity of the populations studied. AIM To compare the frequencies of HLA class II genes in a large number of French patients with Crohn's disease and in an ethnically matched control group. METHODS 344 patients (196 F, 148 M, mean age 23.6 years) with Crohn's disease were molecularly genotyped for the HLA-DQB1 and DRB1 alleles. The results were compared with those for an ethnically matched control population of 488 white adults. RESULTS There were two significant variations of alleles at the DQB1 locus: an increase in DQB1*0501 allele frequency (chi 2 = 10.6, corrected p value (pc) = 0.01, odds ratio (OR) = 1.61) and a decrease in DQB1*0602/0603 allele frequencies (chi 2 = 8.43, pc = 0.037, OR = 0.66). DRB1 analysis showed associations with three allelic variations: an increase in the frequencies of DRB1*01 (chi 2 = 12.86, pc = 0.003, OR = 1.75) and DRB1*07 alleles (chi 2 = 11.18, pc = 0.008, OR = 1.58) and a very significant decrease in that of the DRB1*03 allele (chi 2 = 19.7, pc = 9.10(-5), OR = 0.46). CONCLUSION The alleles DRB1*01 and DRB1*07 are associated with susceptibility to Crohn's disease. The strong negative association between the DRB1*03 allele and Crohn's disease suggests that the HLA-DRB1*03 allele mediates 'resistance' to Crohn's disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Few data exist in the literature about the relationship between percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) and gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in children, and the data that do exist are contradictory. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of PEG on GER. METHODS Twenty children underwent PEG for enteral nutrition. They were 55 +/- 55 months old and weighed 13 +/- 10 kg. A pH study was performed before and after PEG without treatment when GER status was unknown (n = 10) or under treatment (n = 10) if previous GER was demonstrated. In these cases, the pH study was performed under the same treatment before and after PEG. RESULTS Six pH studies had abnormal results before PEG. After PEG, the GER of these 6 children significantly improved after the treatment was intensified (n = 50 or spontaneously normalized (n = 1). Results of 13 pH studies that were previously normal remained normal. Only one child with a normal reflux index before PEG had GER after it. For the 20 children, the mean reflux index did not change significantly after PEG (5.5% vs 5.6%). CONCLUSION Contrary to surgical gastrostomy, PEG does not worsen GER. Therefore, GER is not a contraindication to PEG.

Abstract
The interest of the treatment with a single daily dose of amikacin (AMK) in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with P. aeruginosa infections has been much debated. The aim of work was to study the efficiency of this treatment on (CF) patients with chronic bronchopulmonary P. aeruginosa infections previously treated for two weeks with the combination ceftazidime (CAZ 200 mg/day in 3 inj. IVD) and AMK (35 mg/day in one IV perf. of 30 minutes). The bacteriological supervision of this treatment was performed 1: by the determination of MICs before and after treatment, 2: by the decrease of P. aeruginosa colonization immediately after this treatment and during 11 months, 3: by the identification of P. aeruginosa strains with phenotypic methods (serotyping and antibiotyping) and with genotypic method (pulsed field gel electrophoresis). The use of AMK in a single daily dose in order to treat chronic lung infections colonized with P. aeruginosa susceptible to this antibiotic shows encouraging results as far as bacteriology is concerned: this treatment has given means to reduce colonization for a month in 15 of 18 patients. For 9 of the 18 patients, no P. aeruginosa strains were isolated for nine months. The serotyping and antibiotyping systems do not enable us to study the P. aeruginosa epidemiology. Genome macrorestriction fingerprinting of P. aeruginosa in pulsed field gel electrophoresis confirms that patient with CF were colonized with one or several clones. In our study no variation of these clones was noticed for the first eleven months. Genome macrorestriction fingerprinting appears to be one of the most effective methods for delineate strains of P. aeruginosa colonizing CF patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To demonstrate the value of nasal transepithelial potential difference measurements in the diagnosis and assessment of therapeutic effect in cystic fibrosis. METHOD Nasal transepithelial potential difference was measured in 50 patients with cystic fibrosis (mean age 10 years) and 21 controls (mean age 8 years). RESULTS There was a very significant increase in nasal transepithelial potential in cystic fibrosis patients (-28 +/- 8 mv) compared with controls (-8 +/- 3 mv) (p < 0.0001). The sensitivity and specificity of this test for the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis were 92% and 95% respectively. Nasal transepithelial potential difference was positively correlated with age (r = 0.43; p < 0.002) in cystic fibrosis patients but no correlation was found in controls. There was no significant difference in potential differences as a function of sex or Delta F508 genotype (homozygous vs heterozygous; Delta F508 vs non-Delta F508). CONCLUSION These findings demonstrated the value of transepithelial potential difference in the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and emphasized its capacity to assess the effect of new therapeutic protocols aimed at modifying C1- and Na+ ion transport. It could be particularly helpful for the interpretation of doubtful sweat tests.

Abstract
Eleven children with total colonic aganglionosis were studied by esophageal and duodenal manometry. They were separated into two groups: group 1, with ileal involvement, and group 2, without ileal involvement. The results of the digestive motility studies were compared with the extent of ileal involvement of the aganglionosis and with the amount of artificial nutritional support required. All children showed abnormalities on both esophageal and duodenal manometry, suggesting complete digestive tract motility involvement. Recent advances in understanding Hirschsprung's disease and manometrial abnormalities suggest a primary motility disorder in children with total colonic aganglionosis.
