Stomach stem cell discovery could bring cancer insights
Scientists have identified and described stem cells specific to several tissues and organs of the body - key master cells that give rise to the specialized cell types characteristic of that organ. view more (2007-10-04)
Laparoscopic weight-loss surgery improves health of morbidly obese teens
Teenagers' obesity-related medical complications improve just 6 months after laparoscopic gastric banding surgery, a new study found. The preliminary results will be presented at The Endocrine Society's 90th Annual Meeting in San Francisco. view more (2008-06-18)

A deficiency in vitamin B1 can be a serious complication following a popular surgery to treat obesity. view more (2005-12-27)
Weight loss after gastric bypass surgery may protect against infection and cancer
Another health benefit of bariatric weight-loss surgery may be a heightened immune defense against cancer and infections, a new study suggests. The results will be presented at The Endocrine Society's 90th Annual Meeting in San Francisco. view more (2008-06-18)
NIH study finds low short-term risks after bariatric surgery for extreme obesity
Short-term complications and death rates were low following bariatric surgery to limit the amount of food that can enter the stomach, decrease absorption of food or both, according to the Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (LABS-1). view more (2009-07-31)
Link between esophageal cancer and soft drinks debunked by researchers at Yale
Carbonated soft drink consumption was previously suggested to be linked to the 350 percent increase of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus since the mid-1970s. view more (2006-01-04)
GASTRIC REFLUX COULD BE TEMPERED BY H PYLORI ERADICATION
Eradication of a bacterium present in the stomach could reduce the frequency of a common gastric disorder characterised by heartburn and chest pain, conclude authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. There is little information on the effects of Helicobacter pylori eradication in patients with a primary diagnosis of gastro-oesophageal... view more... (2001-05-31)
Electroacupuncture at PC6 may decrease frequency of transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation
The First Hospital of Peking University, China-Research, has shown that electroacupuncture at PC6 may decrease the frequency of transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation (TLESR), which is the main mechanism underlying gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). view more (2007-10-11)
Mayo Clinic discovery may help diabetic gastric problem
Mayo Clinic researchers have found what may provide a solution to one of the more troubling complications of diabetes -- delayed gastric emptying or gastroparesis. view more (2008-09-26)
For super-obese patients, duodenal switch beats gastric bypass
In the first large, single-institution series directly comparing weight-loss outcomes in super-obese patients, researchers from the University of Chicago found that a newer operation, the duodenal switch, produced substantially better weight-loss outcomes than the standard operation, the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. view more (2006-09-22)
Glutamine supplements show promise in treating stomach ulcers
Nearly 20 years ago, it was discovered that bacteria known as Helicobacter pylori were responsible for stomach ulcers. view more (2009-05-18)
Robotic technique shows promise in weight-loss surgery, Stanford study finds
Surgeons at the Stanford University School of Medicine have developed a safe and efficient way to use a surgical robot to perform gastric bypass operations. view more (2005-08-16)
Scientists identify how gastric reflux may trigger asthma
Researchers at Duke University Medical Center appear to have solved at least a piece of a puzzle that has mystified physicians for years: why so many patients with asthma also suffer from GERD, or gastroesophageal reflux disease. view more (2008-07-22)
Magnetic-anchor-guided endoscopic submucosal dissection shows promise for gastric cancer
A prospective clinical trial from researchers in Japan shows magnetic-anchor-guided endoscopic submucosal dissection for large early gastric cancer to be a feasible and safe method in humans. view more (2009-01-28)
What's the role of beta-catenin in colorectal cancers?
Beta-catenin, a central molecule of the Wnt-signaling pathway was previously known to involve in the tumorigenesis of various gastrointestinal cancers such as gastric cancer and colon cancer. view more (2008-11-03)
Minimally-invasive weight loss surgery improves health and morbidly obese teens
Teenagers' obesity-related medical complications improve just six months after laparoscopic gastric banding surgery, according to outcomes data presented this week. view more (2008-06-19)
Early stage colon cancer characterized by inactivation of gatekeeper gene
The absence or inactivation of the RUNX3 gatekeeper gene paves the way for the growth and development of colon cancer, Singapore scientists report in the Sept. issue of the journal Cancer Cell. Previous studies have shown that RUNX3 plays a role in gastric, breast, lung and bladder cancers. view more (2008-09-10)
Elevated pepsin levels may lead to rejection of lung transplants
Researchers in the United Kingdom have demonstrated that high levels of pepsin, a digestive enzyme that is a marker for gastric aspiration, are associated with acute rejection of a lung transplant. view more (2007-06-18)
Study links gastric bypass surgery to increased risk of kidney stones
Morbidly obese patients who undergo a particular type of gastric bypass surgery called Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are at an increased risk of developing kidney stones - small, pebble-like deposits that can result in severe pain and require an operation to remove them - earlier than previously thought. view more (2008-06-26)
Does artificial intelligence help clinicians to recognize atrophic gastritis with thyroid disease?
The association of ABG with thyroid disorders (TD) was first described about 40 years ago. These older studies assessed the association between Pernicious Anemia (PA) and Thyroiditis on the basis of gastric and or thyroid auto-antibodies. Only recently systematic studies have focused on this frequently overlooked association. view more (2008-02-27)
