OBJECTIVE
To determine the frequency of celiac disease (CD) in children with failure to thrive (FTT) and/ or persistent diarrhea (PD) not responding to conventional therapy.
METHODS
Cross-sectional study.
METHODS
Gastroenterology Unit of Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation (SIUT), from
BACKGROUND
Acute porphyria and Arnold Chiari malformation are both uncommon genetic disorders without known association. The insidious onset, non-specific clinical manifestations, and precipitating factors often cause diagnosis of acute porphyria to be missed, particularly in patients with
Intestinal absorption of antigenic (intact) and degraded beta-lactoglobulin and horseradish peroxidase was studied in rabbits experimentally infected at weaning with the rabbit-specific Escherichia coli strain RDEC-1 (015:NM). Transepithelial fluxes of both proteins were measured at four stages
Intravaginal insertion of a 10 cm2 silastic device with an 0.5% concentration of 15(S)-15-methyl-prostaglandin F2alpha methyl ester alone successfully induced abortion in 27 of 48 patients in the midtrimester and in an additional 11 patients with a concomitant infusion of oxytocin. The mean abortion
We have previously shown increased intestinal permeability, to 4-kDa FITC-dextran, in BALB/c mice treated with irinotecan. Importantly, genetic deletion of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4; Tlr4-/-) protected against loss of barrier function, indicating that TLR4 is critical in tight junction regulation.
The study investigated the frequency of piglet diarrhoea from birth to weaning (33rd day) in a farrowing pigsty with 3 rows of boxes during 7 rearing cycles with 240 piglets each, always related to the day of birth in connection with the onset of the cycle. 3 groups were differentiated according to
The influence of preventive administration of Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei and maltodextrin KMS X-70 on Escherichia coli 08: K88 adhesion in the gastrointestinal tract of 11 conventional and 6 gnotobiotic piglets was investigated. The preventive administration of L. casei alone had almost no
The massive secretion of salt and water in cholera-induced diarrhea involves binding of cholera toxin (CT) to ganglioside GM1 in the apical membrane of intestinal epithelial cells, translocation of the enzymatically active A1-peptide across the membrane, and subsequent activation of adenylate
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the pharmacological effect of TongXie-YaoFang (TXYF) formula, a Chinese herbal formula, on Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS) rats.
METHODS
In a neonatal maternal separation plus restraint stress (NMS + RS) model of D-IBS, male Sprague Dawley rats were
Octreotide (SMS, synthetic miniature somatostatin) effectively alleviates the secretory diarrhea of the malignant carcinoid syndrome. Although SMS inhibits tumor release of serotonin (5HT) and other bioactive agents, it also inhibits the diarrhea in patients who continue to exhibit elevated serum
Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), derived from red kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), can induce malabsorption and diarrhea when fed to rats. In this study, we determined the effect of PHA on ion transport in the rabbit ileum in vitro. Compared with control tissues, PHA (1 mg/ml) added to the mucosal
OBJECTIVE
Pathogen reduction technologies are among methods to eliminate transfusion transmitted infections. Mirasol method using riboflavin in combination with ultraviolet rays is one of them. The aims of this study were to investigate the effectiveness of Mirasol method to inactivate some model
BACKGROUND
Recent studies of piglet cryptosporidiosis have shown that impaired Na(+)-coupled glucose absorption is associated with a loss of two thirds of the villous absorptive surface and an inflammatory infiltration of the lamina propria. Because inflammatory cells release eicosanoids that may
The effect of microwave irradiation on naloxone-induced withdrawal syndrome was studied in rats made morphine dependent by subcutaneous implantation of morphine pellets. Morphine-dependent rats were either exposed to pulsed low-level microwaves (2450 MHz, 1 mW/cm2, 500 pps, 2 musec pulses) or
Intestinal water and electrolyte transport was investigated in vivo and in vitro in rats made tolerant to morphine and subsequently withdrawn with naloxone. Rats were rendered tolerant by injection of a slow-release emulsion containing morphine (75 mg/rat over 48 h), and when challenged with
