Arachidonic acid concentrations in patients with Crohn disease.

We read with interest the work by Jeppesen et al (1) examining the fatty acid content of plasma phospholipids in patients with malabsorption and patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN). In that article, patients with fat malabsorption were subgrouped according to the severity of malabsorption (fat malabsorption ≤50% and fat malabsorption >50%), whereas patients receiving HPN were gro...

Magnesium and Alzheimers Disease: The Cholinergic Hypothesis

The cholinergic deficit in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) remains the cornerstone for the understanding of chemical signal transfer. Hypofunctions of cholinergic systems are significantly involved in the signs and symptoms of senile dementia of the Alzheimer type. Cognitive deficits in AD have been widely associated with dysfunction of the cholinergic system. As a diagnostic marker of AD the activity...
