Pancreatic exocrine function was investigated using PFD (Pancreatic Function Diagnostant) test in 162 patients with massive alcohol intake. The results obtained were as follows:<BR>(1) Significantly lower PFD values were observed in those patients with massive alcohol intake than in normal controls. Abnormally low PFD values below 70.0% were noticed in 81 (50.0%) out of an overall 162 patients.<BR>(2) No significant differences in PFD values were obtained among the patients who were classified into 3 categories according to age or duration of alcohol intake.<BR>(3) Only 25 (15.4%) patients indicated low bady weight below 89.9% of ideal body weight. PFD values in those patients tended to be lower than in other 2 groups.<BR>In conclusion, it was assumed that massive alcohol intake inhibited pancreatic exocrine function using PFD test.
