Biliary acids present in gastric content due to a duodena-gastric reflux have been blamed for attacking the gastric mucosa through detergent action on the defensive barrier. This harmful action produces an inflammatory lesion on this mucosa, resulting in a chronic gastritis which is clinically
BACKGROUND Bleeding is a major intraoperative complication during surgical procedures. When conventional methods such as ligature and diathermocoagulation are ineffective for bleeding management, hemostatic agents should be used. Oxidized cellulose is one of the major hemostatic agents used
The thermosensitive-mucoadhesive ondansetron liquid suppository (tmOLS) was developed to enhance patient compliance and bioavailability in high-risk patients receiving highly emetogenic therapy and having difficulty in swallowing, The thermosensitive-mucoadhesive liquid suppository bases were
OBJECTIVE
Postoperative sore throat is one of the most common problems after tonsillectomy. Antibiotics remove the local flora and reduce inflammation and thus may reduce postoperative pain after tonsillectomy.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effect of topical sucralfate and clindamycin on local pain
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acute toxicity of oral exposure to nanoscale zinc powder in mice. The healthy adult male and female mice were gastro-intestinally administered at a dose of 5 g/kg body weight with two size particles, nanoscale zinc (N-Zn) and microscale zinc (M-Zn)
BACKGROUND
Gastric bezoars may develop in the proximal pouch after gastric restriction.
METHODS
Of 299 patients who underwent laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), 4 developed gastric bezoars at different intervals after surgery (24 days, 8 months, 18 months, and 6 years).
RESULTS
Symptoms
A 42-year-old woman presented with persistent headaches, vertigo, vomiting and transient periods of unconsciousness. Examination revealed a spheno-nasopharyngeal encephalocele lying between the ethmoid bone and the sphenoid sinus. It was possible to push the prolapse gently back by a transmaxillary
The authors report a case of a 39-year-old woman who sustained an injury to her left knee requiring arthroscopic surgical medial menisectomy and ganglionic block for reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome. Approximately 1 year after injury, the patient presented with an elevated white blood cell
OBJECTIVE
Therapeutic trials in functional dyspepsia consistently show a substantial placebo response, but there is no clear explanation for such an effect. Our aim was to evaluate symptomatic, gastrointestinal motor, and gastric sensorial responses to placebo treatment in patients with chronic and
Ondansetron is a carbazol with antiemetic properties that acts as a competitive and selective antagonist for the 5 HT3 serotonin receptors. It is used primarily to control nausea and vomiting caused by cytotoxic chemotherapy and radiotherapy, as well as in postoperative vomiting in gynecological
Hypercalcaemia can be caused by many disorders, but is most commonly due to primary hyperparathyroidism in outpatients, and to malignant disease in hospital inpatients. When mild (less than 3 mmol/L) it does not cause symptoms, but can have long term effects such as renal calculi. It is important
When tablet residues are found in the gastrointestinal tract during autopsy, this does not only indicate the possible presence of intoxication, but may also provide indications with the regard to the kind of intoxication (e.g. suicide) if the amount of tablets is considered. If tablets have already
Attempts were made to identify the toxin in the gastropod Zeuxis samiplicutus that was responsible for the recent food poisoning incidents in southern Zhejiang, Mainland China. Symptoms associated with the poisonings included paralysis, coma, vomiting, and aphasia. The remaining specimens of
Food poisoning due to ingestion of two fishes, Yongeichthys nebulosus and Sillago japonica, occurred in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, in February 1997. Two male persons (48 and 58 years old) were poisoned, with symptoms featured by dizziness, nausea, vomiting, numbness, and difficulty in respiration. All of
The toxin in the gastropods (snails) Zeuxis sufflatus and Niotha clathrata implicated in a food poisoning incident in northern Taiwan in April 2001 was studied. The symptoms exhibited by four victims were general paresthesia, paralysis of the phalanges and the extremities, paralysis, coma, vomiting,
