Figure 1 Relationship of triglycerides to selenium-75-homophoric acid taurine retention values in patients with primary and secondary bile acid diarrhoea. The linear regression (R2 value 0.0129) and normal values for TGs (1.9 mmol/L) and selenium-75-homophoric acid taurine (SeHCAT) retention (15%) are shown.
