Uncovering the secrets of ulcer-causing bacteria
A team of researchers from Boston University, Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Institute of Technology recently made a discovery that changes a long held paradigm about how bacteria move through soft gels. view more (2009-08-13)
What is the effect of fluoxetine on mast cell?
Mast cells are now recognized as "granular cells of the connective tissue", whose activation exacerbates allergic immune responses and as key players in the establishment of innate immunity as well as modulators of adaptive immune responses. view more (2008-12-23)
3 newly discovered ERK pathway proteins related to CagA induced disease
Cytotoxin-associated gene A protein (CagA) from type I H.pylori has been proved by epidemiological and experimental studies to be closely associated with the H.pylori induced gastric diseases, especially gastric cancer. view more (2008-02-25)
Taking sharper aim at stomach ulcer bacteria
Scientists are reporting discovery of a much sought after crack in the armor of a common microbe that infects the stomachs of one-sixth of the world's population, causing stomach ulcers and other diseases. view more (2009-10-01)
Gastric bypass reduces mortality risk in severely obese patients
Severely obese patients who undergo gastric bypass surgery significantly reduce their risk of death from coronary heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. view more (2007-08-23)
Researchers discover correlation between GERD and obesity in females
A group of scientists recently discovered an association between being overweightand a disease called gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in women. view more (2007-09-14)
Acute gastric injury due to high-dose analgesics?
Analgesics, NSAIDs and acetaminophen, are commonly used for the relief of fever, headaches, and other minor aches and pains. The gastrointestinal side effects of NSAIDs are well documented and acetaminophen is accepted to be a safe drug for the gastrointestinal system. Acute effects of short-term, especially high-dose NSAID and acetaminophen use... view more... (2008-12-29)
Characteristic pathological findings in reflux esophagitis
Recently, the number of patients with GERD has increased in Japan. However, there have been few reports about the pathological findings in the esophageal squamous epithelium, and there are differing opinions among pathologists about the findings considered characteristic of chronic reflux esophagitis. view more (2009-08-10)
Study shows potential for resolving type 2 diabetes with bariatric surgery
As the incidence of obesity-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus continues to increase worldwide, medical research indicates that surgery to reduce obesity can completely eliminate all manifestations of diabetes. view more (2009-03-03)
A new prognostic tool for gastric carcinomas? (and maybe other cancers)
A new way to identify gastric carcinoma patients with high probability of develop a more aggressive form of disease has just been described on the June issue of the journal Glycobiology. view more (2005-05-16)
Why missing out on a good night's sleep could give you ulcers
Missing out on a good night's sleep through long haul travel, shift work, or partying could increase the risk of ulcers. Research in Gut shows that levels of a chemical, produced by the stomach and small intestine to repair tissue damage, are highest at night, and are suppressed after a meal. Twelve healthy, 20 to 24 year old non-smokers were... view more... (2001-04-10)
Institute for Aging Research finds modifiable hip fracture complications contribute to mortality
Potentially modifiable post-fracture complications, including pneumonia and pressure ulcers, are associated with an increased risk of death among nursing home residents who have suffered a hip fracture, according to a new study conducted by scientists at the Institute for Aging Research at Hebrew SeniorLife. view more (2009-05-22)
Trial Seeks 'Genetic Fingerprint' for Predicting Drug Effectiveness
University of Cincinnati (UC) physician-scientists believe identifying a genetic "fingerprint" could help predict which specific therapies will be most effective for patients with gastric cancer. 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)
After gastric bypass surgery, important to check vitamin B1 deficiency
A deficiency in vitamin B1 can be a serious complication following a popular surgery to treat obesity. view more (2005-12-27)
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)
UW study tests topical honey as a treatment for diabetic ulcers
The sore on Catrina Hurlburt's leg simply wouldn't heal. Complications from a 2002 car accident left Hurlburt, a borderline diabetic, with recurring cellulitis and staph infections. One of those infections developed into a troublesome open sore that, despite the use of oral antibiotics, continued to fester for nearly eight months. view more (2007-05-04)
Stomach cancer rate set to fall further 25 percent over next decade
New cases of stomach cancer are set to plummet a further 25 per cent in the West over the next decade, indicates research published ahead of print in the journal Gut. view more (2007-08-14)
Protein interaction network can respond Helicobacter pylori infection?
Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) is a gram negative bacterium which infects about 50% of the world population. H pylori colonization causes a strong systemic immune response. view more (2009-10-16)
Prehistoric origins of stomach ulcers uncovered
An international team of scientists has discovered that the ubiquitous bacteria that causes most painful stomach ulcers has been present in the human digestive system since modern man migrated from Africa over 60,000 years ago. view more (2007-02-08)
