OBJECTIVE
We performed a prospective multi-national study of patients presenting to the emergency department with upper GI bleeding (UGIB) and assessed the relationship of time to presentation after onset of UGIB symptoms with patient characteristics and outcomes.
METHODS
Consecutive patients
BACKGROUND
Gastrointestinal bleeding is a common problem in pediatric emergency department (PED). Some of these patients can lose significant amount of blood which may lead to shock. The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors predicting clinically significant gastrointestinal (GIS)
Clinical features were evaluated in seven adult cats (six males, one female) with haemorrhage and presumptive anticoagulant rodenticide intoxication. Haemorrhage appeared as thoracic haemorrhage, otic bleeding, haematoma, melena, haematochezia, and petechiation. The most common other presenting
Notoedric mange was responsible for a population decline of bobcats ( Lynx rufus ) in 2 Southern California counties from 2002-2006 and is now reported to affect bobcats in Northern and Southern California. With this study we document clinical laboratory and necropsy findings for bobcats with mange.

BACKGROUND Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) in children is a rare life-threatening syndrome, characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia with renal dysfunction, neurologic symptoms, and fever. TTP is usually caused by deficient activity of von Willebrand factor
It has been well-known that technetium-99m-human serum albumin-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid (99mTc-HSAD) scintigraphy is useful for diagnosis of the localization of the gastrointestinal arterial or venous bleeding. In this report, we describe a case of venous bleeding from capillary
Although inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) typically presents with gastrointestinal complaints, mucocutaneous lesions are commonly associated and can precede gastrointestinal symptoms, thereby alerting the clinician to the diagnosis of IBD before the onset of gastrointestinal symptoms. Nine children
The Boehringer-Mannheim Corporation (BMC) strip test is extremely reliable in indicating an albumin content above 20 mg/gm of dried meconium. All infants born during one year in 14 Milwaukee area hospitals were tested. Of 16,224 newborns, two were diagnosed correctly as suffering from cystic
Six dogs with lornoxicam induced severe gastrointestinal bleeding are described. The ingested dose ranged between 0.5 - 5.1 mg/kg BW (median 0.63 mg/kg BW). The severity of the bloodloss anemia was moderate to severe with PCV values ranging between 12 - 27 % (median 16 %) and serum albumin
Frequent tagged red blood cell scans offer an important diagnostic adjunct to help define a site of intermittent bleeding. Success is based upon scanning at two-to-four-hour intervals. Two patients are presented who experienced intermittent episodes of melena and hematochezia over prolonged periods
The results of more than eight years of screening for cystic fibrosis (CF), utilizing the albumin concentration in meconium, are reported. Over 28 000 meconium samples were tested, over 24 000 of them by the Boehringer-Mannheim strip test, and all samples considered as showing a trace or positive
