OBJECTIVE
To study, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the parotid glands of patients who self-induce vomiting and in particular to observe the effects of cessation of this behaviour. The morphological features and composition of enlarged parotid glands in this group, compared with normal
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is a rare phenomenon characterized by postural headache, neck rigidity, nausea and vomiting. Imaging findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is characteristic with diffuse intracranial pachymeningeal thickening and enhancement following intravenous
A 3-year-old boy presented with postprandial vomiting and epigastric pain for 3 wk. Barium meal study suggested hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Ultrasound of the stomach after water loading revealed an echogenic antral web with an eccentric aperture and distal antral hypertrophy. Subsequent endoscopy
A cross-sectional study was performed on acutely vomiting dogs to compare the accuracy of radiography and ultrasonography for the diagnosis of small-intestinal mechanical obstruction and to describe several radiographic and ultrasonographic signs to identify their contribution to the final
"Spontaneous" rupture of the oesophagus is rare and happens after a marked rapid rise in intraluminal oesophageal pressure (massive vomiting, asthma etc.). As is known from the literature, forceful swallowing alone may produce spontaneous perforation in the case of damage to the mucosa or muscular
The authors investigated the significance of vomiting for hyperamylasemia and sialadenosis in patients with bulimia nervosa. Hyperamylasemia was found in 61% of the bulimics and in 20% of the restrictor anorectics but in no patients with binge-eating syndrome. In more than three fourths of the
Bulimia is an episodic compulsive urge to overeat often followed by recurrent attempts to lose weight by self-induced vomiting. Seven young women with this eating disorder and associated benign bilateral painless parotid enlargement are described. The glandular swelling was generally intermittent,

In eating disorders, such as bulimia nervosa, body image disturbance often extends beyond the realm of weight and shape into the dermatologic spectrum. While commonly associated conditions due to binging and self-induced vomiting include cutaneous entities (e.g., Russell's sign, acne, alopecia and
Objective: To investigate the clinical features, treatment methods, and outcomes of fulminant myocarditis (FM) in children. Methods: The clinical data of 23 children with FM hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of
In the present study, Cryptosporidium oocysts were found, by light microscopy, in 37 fecal samples of peach-faced lovebirds (Agapornis roseicollis). Cryptosporidium avian genotype III was isolated in 13 of the 37 infected birds by sequence analysis of the small subunit ribosomal RNA and the actin
Enlargement of the salivary glands can occur in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN). This enlargement appears to be related to both the nutritional deficiencies and the bizarre eating habits (particularly the bulimia and vomiting) characteristic of these patients. In some patients, the salivary
