title: Possible role of bile deficiency in the development of intestinal syndrome of acute radiation disease.
abstract: Experimentally induced bile deficiency significantly accelerates the development of acute gastrointestinal syndrome in the irradiated rat. The usual 11 days of survival is reduced to 5 days. In view of the experimental results it seems justifiable to conclude that endotoxins play an important role in the development of this syndrome.
