Pulmonary function abnormalities in respiratory asymptomatic patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Eur J Intern Med PMID: 12225784 DOI: 10.1016/s0953-6205(02)00097-3
Numerous extraintestinal diseases have been associated with IBD. The role of the gastrointestinal tract in host response to the foreign antigens present in the gut makes the enteric immune system highly susceptible to any external perturbation to the system. Dysregulation of the enteric immune response results in pathology in various …
Self-reported awareness and use of the International Classification of Diseases coding of inflammatory bowel disease services by Ontario physicians
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Can J Gastroenterol PMID: 12226679 DOI: 10.1155/2002/619574
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was previously thought a rare disease among children in Kuwait since most diarrhea cases were attributed to infections. In the past few years we observed an increase in the number of patients presenting with IBD. In this study we aimed to determine the epidemiology of …
Functional relevance of activin A in the intestinal epithelium
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Scand J Gastroenterol PMID: 12229969 DOI: 10.1080/003655202760230900
BACKGROUND: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multifactorial disease with a significant genetic background. Evidence is accumulating that molecules such as CD14, which interact with luminal bacterial constituents, are involved in the pathogenesis. It has recently been shown that the T allele of the 5'-flanking region of the CD14 gene …
[Autoimmune hepatitis and overlap syndrome: diagnosis]
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Praxis (Bern 1994) PMID: 12233264 DOI: 10.1024/0369-8394.91.34.1339
This study is aimed to isolate some novel probiotics from the soils of North East Himalayas. Eleven Gram positive isolates were obtained in MRS with Oxgall media from soil samples. Four of the isolates withstood the in vitro gastric juice pH 3.0 and 0.45% bile salt tolerance screening. Among these, …
Expression of 5-lipoxygenase mRNA is unchanged in the colon of patients with active inflammatory bowel disease
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Inflamm Res PMID: 12234060 DOI: 10.1007/pl00000324
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and idiopathic chronic constipation (ICC) are intestinal disorders which disrupt normal colonic motility. Enteric tachykinins are well-recognised to play a role in the motor control of the gut, and increased colonic levels of substance P are seen in IBD, whereas decreased levels have been reported in …
Cigarette smoking, appendectomy, and tonsillectomy as risk factors for the development of primary sclerosing cholangitis: a case control study
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Gut PMID: 12235082 DOI: 10.1136/gut.51.4.567
OBJECTIVES: Focally enhanced gastritis (FEG) has been suggested as a specific diagnostic marker for patients with Crohn's disease. However, the utility of FEG for distinguishing Crohn's disease from ulcerative colitis is uncertain in adults, and the occurrence of this lesion in children has not been defined. The aim of this …
Collagenous colitis with mucosal tears on endoscopic insufflation: a unique presentation
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Gut PMID: 12235088 DOI: 10.1136/gut.51.4.600
The aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease is still unclean. Whilst a specific pathogen agent associated with these diseases has not been found, the rationale for probiotic therapy in inflammatory bowel disease is based on convincing evidence involving intestinal bacteria in their pathogenesis. Encouraging results have been obtained with probiotic therapy …
[Predictive value of changes in the hemostasis system in patients with ischemic brain diseases]
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Vojnosanit Pregl PMID: 12235743 DOI: 10.2298/vsp0204377r
Extraintestinal manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are quite common (about 25%) and careful clinical observation and statistical analysis during the last five decades have demonstrated that in colitis-associated extraintestinal complications, the organs most commonly involved are the biliary tract, joints, skin, and eyes. However, almost all organs …
Quantitative measures of disease in broiler breeder chicks of different major histocompatibility complex genotypes after challenge with infectious bursal disease virus
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Avian Dis PMID: 12243521 DOI: 10.1637/0005-2086(2002)046[0581:QMODIB]2.0.CO;2
Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) expression is increased in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and TNF maps to the IBD3 susceptibility locus. Transmission disequilibrium and case-control analyses, in two independent Caucasian cohorts, showed a novel association of the TNF(-857C) promoter polymorphism with IBD (overall P=0.001 in 587 IBD families). Further genetic associations …
Drug side-effects in IBD
Publication Year: 2002 Source: Aliment Pharmacol Ther PMID: 12269978 DOI: 10.1046/j.1365-2036.2002.t01-1-01329_1.x
Protein-bound polysaccharide-K (PSK) is a biological response modifier that possesses antitumor effects against various tumors. Although an inflammatory response has been considered to play an important role in the development of colorectal cancer, the anti-inflammatory effect of PSK has yet to be elucidated. An inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-induced colorectal tumor …
