OBJECTIVE
Diversion proctocolitis (DPC) frequently develops in the colorectum after diversion of the fecal stream characterized by bleeding from the inflamed mucosa. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are responsible for growth and differentiation of enterocytes. Adult series have reported variable
We have evaluated the potential protective activity of nepadutant, a selective tachykinin NK2 receptor antagonist, in a model of acute rectocolitis induced by an enema with 7.5% acetic acid in guinea-pigs. The injury was quantified visually by using a macroscopic injury score, and histologically by
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of MEN 11467 (1R,2S)-2-N[1(H)indol-3-yl-carbonyl]-1-N{N-(p-tolylacetyl)-N-(meth yl)-D-3(2-Naphthyl)alanyl}diaminocyclohexane), a new potent tachykinin NK1 receptor antagonist, in an experimental model of acute rectocolitis induced by an enema with
Corrosive proctocolitis has occurred after accidental contamination of endoscopes in most patients. But accidental administration of corrosive agents for bowel cleansing can occur. The agents implicated for chemical colitis is 15% hydrochloric acid and 2% ethoxylated alcohol. We present a case of
Several respiratory complications have been described in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), and are the subject of this review. Involvement of the bronchial tree is the most frequent of them. Chronic bronchitis (16 patients) and bilateral bronchiectasis (16 patients) are responsible for chronic
It has been difficult to evaluate the protective efficacy of vaccine candidates against shigellosis, a major form of bacillary dysentery caused by Shigella spp. infection, because of the lack of suitable animal models. To develop a proper animal model representing human bacillary dysentery, guinea
Six infants are reported who developed an inflammatory proctocolitis in the first month of life while being breast fed exclusively. All has been born at term and had normal perinatal courses. None had growth failure or constitutional symptoms other than bloody diarrhea. No toxic, bacterial, viral,
The aim of this study was to report on a rare case of Garré's sclerosing osteomyelitis. The patient was a 54-year-old woman with a history of treatment for lupus using corticoids for 20 years, and for osteoporosis using alendronate for five years. She presented edema and developed a limitation of
Twenty-three patients with advanced gynecologic malignancy were treated with definitive irradiation and synchronous sensitizing chemotherapy (CT) consisting of cisplatin (CDDP), 50 mg/m2 i.v. rapid infusion, and a 5-day continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), 750 mg/m2/day. A total of three
A 3-month-old boy is described who developed an inflammatory proctocolitis during exclusive breast feeding. The major symptom was bloody diarrhea. No growth failure or constitutional symptoms were present. Bacterial, viral, and parasitic infection was excluded. The colonoscopic findings of focal
OBJECTIVE
To understand the clinical features of gastrointestinal cow's milk allergy in children, and to assess the importance of cow's milk challenge.
METHODS
An analysis was performed on the clinical manifestations and the challenge results of 50 children who received cow's milk challenges after
Glutaraldehyde-induced colitis is an uncommon colitis in clinical practice. Because the involvement of colonic segment is determined by the endoscopic part where glutaraldehyde remains, a recent history of endoscopy and a demarcated involvement of colonic segment are the most characteristic signs of
This is a retrospective analysis of 225 patients with localized adenocarcinoma of the prostate who were treated with continuous-course external-beam radiation therapy at the University of Florida between October 1964 and August 1982. All patients were treated 5 or more years prior to the date of
