It is known that the gluten-containing grains can be responsible for human diseases related to gluten exposure. These forms of gluten intolerance represent a heterogeneous set of conditions, including celiac disease (CD), wheat allergy (WA) and not celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), that combined
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is acknowledged as a highly effective treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Usually single fecal infusion achieves satisfactory cure rates of recurrent CDI). However, several retrospective studies show that severe clinical picture of
-Chemo-radiation enhances survival but also increases the risk of PRD. The result will be an increasing

The Gut Barrier and Pathological Bacterial Translocation: The "Achilles Heel" of Hepatology
The intestinal wall is a complex barrier that exists between humans and their environment. Inside the intestinal lumen, the commensal flora exposes the epithelium to nearly 100 trillion bacteria.1 This
Diagnosis: The diagnosis of Alcoholic hepatitis is made by the following criteria (12)

Background:
Ascites is a frequent complication of cirrhosis, occurring in 50% of patients and is associated with 50 % mortality in two years.

Peritoneal dialysis was one of therapies for uremia patient. However, peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis was a major complication for these patients.

Colonic bacteria clearly play a major role in the pathogenesis of major complications in patients with liver cirrhosis. By producing ammonia and endotoxins they can cause hepatic encephalopathy , and their translocation from the gut to the peritoneal cavity is the major mechanism for spontaneous
Clostridium difficile is a bacterium that proliferates when normal colonic flora have been altered, most commonly due to antibiotic use. Clostridium difficile is non-invasive and localized to the lumen of the colon. Once established, it produces 2 potent toxins, A and B. The principal reservoir for
