1 Low-Dose Aspirin Affects the Small Bowel Mucosa: Results of a Pilot Study With a Multidimensional Assessment  Edgardo Smecuol, Maria Ines Pinto Sanchez, Alejandro Suarez, Julio E. Argonz, Emilia Sugai, Horacio Vazquez, Nestor Litwin, Elena Piazuelo, Jonathan B. Meddings, Julio C. Bai, Angel Lanas  Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology  Volume 7, Issue 5, Pages (May 2009) DOI: /j.cgh Copyright © 2009 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Capsule endoscopic views of small bowel. (A, B) Petechiae and red spots (category 1); (C, D) mucosal erosion (category 2); (E) jejunal ulcer (category 4); (F) ileal ulcer (category 4).

3 Figure 2 Concentrations of fecal calprotectin in 20 healthy subjects at baseline and after 14 days of 100 mg/day enteric-coated ASA. Fecal calprotectin was increased after ASA administration; P < versus baseline values. The horizontal line indicates the upper normal limit (+2 standard deviations) for calprotectin concentrations.

4 Figure 3 Urinary excretion of intestinal permeability probes induced by ASA. Results illustrate urinary excretion of lac/man in 20 subjects at baseline and after 14 days of 100 mg/day enteric-coated ASA. Lac/man ratio was nonsignificantly increased after ASA administration; P < .08 versus baseline values. The horizontal line indicates the upper normal limit (+2 standard deviations) for lac/man ratio.

5 Figure 4 Urinary excretion of gastroduodenal permeability probes induced by ASA. Results illustrate urinary excretion of sucrose in 20 subjects at baseline and after 14 days of 100 mg/day enteric-coated ASA. Fractional excretion of sucrose was increased after ASA administration; P < .05 versus baseline values. The horizontal line indicates the upper normal limit (+2 standard deviations) for sucrose urinary excretion.
