A patient presenting with congestive cardiac failure and anaemia underwent investigation which led to the diagnosis of Whipple's disease, associated with dilated cardiomyopathy. Conventional antibiotic therapy for Whipple's disease resulted in resolution of the traditional features of Whipple's disease and a marked improvement in the patient's heart failure.

Jejunal diverticulosis, a marker of disordered small intestinal motility, presents varied clinical manifestations. It is important to consider this disorder in elderly patients with unexplained abdominal discomfort accompanied by signs of intermittent small bowel obstruction and malabsorption. Diagnosis can be made by a small bowel follow-through x-ray film obtained as part of the evaluation of diarrhea and obstructive symptoms. Medical therapy is helpful in controlling diarrhea and anemia, while surgical therapy can give excellent results in treating complications or refractory symptoms.

Tetracycline absorption was studied in a group of normal healthy subjects and in adult male patients suffering from various nutritional disorders such as protein-calorie malnutrition, pellagra, anaemia, and vitamin B-complex deficiency. Tetracycline hydrochloride in doses of 10 mg/kg body weight was administered in a crossover design by oral and intravenous routes at an interval of one week. Absorption of tetracycline was determined from total 48-hour urinary excretion of the drug following each dose. It was observed that tetracycline absorption was significantly reduced in subjects with undernutrition and pellagra but not in patients with orolingual lesions due to vitamin B-complex deficiency and in patients with severe anaemia. Comparative studies on absorption of tetracycline, given in the form of capsule and solution, indicated that impaired absorption of tetracycline in undernourished subjects was not due to inadequate dissolution of the capsule.

A review of the literature on subclinical intestinal disease shows its probable relevance in certain nutritional deficiencies in the indigenous residents of tropical climates. A significant incidence of intestinal disease has been defined among asymptomatic fit-looking adult Nigerians. The results of subsequent investigation into the pathogenesis of this disorder strongly point to hypoalbuminaemia as the important factor capable of producing a biochemically and histologically defined malabsorptive state leading to subnormal nutritional status among members of this community.
