[Lipids and total bile acids in the blood of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases].
We evaluated the total plasma bile acids, total lipids, total cholesterol, total triglicerides, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, phospholipids and lipoproteins (APOA-A and APO-B) in 25 patients with inflammatory bowel disease: 20 with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 5 with Crohn's disease. In comparison to 17 healthy volunteers, the total plasma bile acids were decreased in all patients. The serum level of total cholesterol, LDL-Ch, HDL-ch and APO-A was significantly lower in patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (p less than 0.01) than in normal controls; total triglycerides and APO-B were decreased only in the group with Crohn's disease (p less than 0.05). Thus, decreased values of total plasma bile acids malabsorption, and they suggest a more important romalabsortion, and they suggest a more important role of the colon in the preservation of bile acids.
