Bone histology became normal or improved greatly after four to 12 months' treatment in eight patients but showed little change or worsened in four. There was a significant rise in plasma calcium and fall in plasma alkaline phosphatase concentration with 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 therapy in the patients with a good histological response. Administration of metronidazole and cotrimoxazole to two patients who had failed to respond to 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 resulted in clinical and biochemical improvement; in one of these patients histological improvement was also documented. It is concluded that oral 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 can be effective in healing post-bypass bone disease; the failure of some patients to respond may be related to bacterial contamination of the small intestine and in those patients antibiotics may also be indicated.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.21.8.669","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,18]],"date-time":"2007-09-18T17:41:31Z","timestamp":1190137291000},"page":"669-674","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Treatment of bone disease after jejunoileal bypass for obesity with oral 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3."],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"J E","family":"Compston","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L W","family":"Horton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M F","family":"Laker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A L","family":"Merrett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J S","family":"Woodhead","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J C","family":"Gazet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T R","family":"Pilkington","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1980,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(78)91318-1","article-title":"Bone disease after jejuno-ileal bypass for obesity","volume":"2","author":"Compston, J.E.; Horton, L.W.L.; Laker, M.F.","year":"1978","unstructured":"Compston JE, Horton LWL, Laker MF, et al.
