Alanine- and glucose-based hypo-osmolar oral rehydration solution in infants with persistent diarrhoea: a controlled trial (1995)

Sarker, S.A., Majid, N., Mahalanabis, Dilip

To evaluate the efficacy of a hypo-osmolar and a standard (World Health Organization) oral rehydration salt (ORS) solution in persistent diarrhoea, a randomized controlled clinical trial was...

The presence of bicarbonate in oral rehydration solution does not influence fluid absorption in cholera (1995)

Sarker, S.A., Mahalanabis, Dilip

On the basis of human perfusion studies it has been speculated that bicarbonate ions in oral rehydration salt solutions (ORS) to treat diarrhoea are more efficiently absorbed from the small bowel. We...

Enteric protein loss and intestinal permeability changes in children during acute shigellosis and after recovery : effect of zinc supplementation (1994)

Alam, A.N., Sarker, S.A., Wahed, M.A., Khatun, M., Rahaman, M.M.

The effect of zinc supplementation on intestinal permeability changes and protein loss was studied in 32 children aged between 1 and 12 years during bouts of acute shigellosis and after recovery. An...

Hydrolysed wheat based oral rehydration solution for acute diarrhoea (1987)

Alam, A.N., Sarker, S.A., Molla, A.M., Rahaman, M.M., Greenough, W.B. III

A randomised three cell study was carried out in 78 children with acute diarrhoea to evaluate the relative efficacy of oral rehydration solution (ORS) made from partially hydrolysed wheat grain,...

Prolonged depression of serum zinc concentrations in children following post-measles diarrhoea (1985)

Sarker, S.A., Rahaman, M.M., Ali, Akbar, Hossain, Saleha, Alam, A.N.

Serum zinc levels were measured in three groups of children aged 6 months to 6 years. In group I, there were 25 children with diarrhoea, who had a history of measles within the 2 weeks preceding the...

Whole-gut transit time and its relationship to absorption of macronutrients during diarrhoea and after recovery (1983)

Molla, A., Molla, A.M., Sarker, S.A., Khatun, M.

Whole gut transit time (TT) was measured in 68 children aged up to 5 years (29 cholera, 17 rotavirus, 13 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, and 9 Shigella) during acute stages of diarrhoea and 2 weeks...

Non-immunological defence mechanisms of the gut.

Sarker, S A, Gyr, K

Non-immunological defence mechanisms represent an important line of intestinal defence in addition to humoral and cellular immunity. This review summarises the evidence for the role of the...

Persistent protein losing enteropathy in post measles diarrhoea.

Sarker, S A, Wahed, M A, Rahaman, M M, Alam, A N, Islam, A, Jahan, F

Faecal alpha 1 antitrypsin was measured in two groups of children with diarrhoea aged 6 months to 6 years during the acute and recovery stages of the illness. Group 1 comprised 19 children with a...
