Teduglutide, a semisynthetic analogue of glucagon-like peptide-2 (sGLP-2), increases intestinal absorption fluids and nutrients, reducing the need for parenteral nutrition (PN). This report aims to describe our experience with sGLP-2 in cohort adult patients short-bowel syndrome.This is prospective observational study on initially evaluated specialized rehabilitation program that received from June 2014 March 2020.Autologous gastrointestinal reconstruction surgery (AGIRS) was performed 108...
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is considered a low prevalence disease. In Argentina, no registries are available on chronic intestinal failure (CIF) and SBS. This project was designed as the first national registry to report adult patients with this disease.A prospective multicenter observational created including CIF/SBS from approved centers. Demographics, clinical characteristics, nutrition assessment, home parenteral (HPN) management, surgeries performed, medical treatment, overall survival,...
OBJECTIVES: Telomeres are important structures that critical for maintaining chromosomal integrity and cell surveillance. The aim of this study was to analyze telomere length in patients with celiac disease (CD), a multifactorial disorder strong genetic component exhibits genomic instability cancer predisposition, particularly T-cell lymphomas. METHODS: Telomere measured by restriction fragments (TRF) studied small intestinal biopsy (SIB) samples peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from 20...
Abstract Background Short bowel syndrome is considered a low prevalence disease. The scant information available about intestinal failure in Latin America was the driving force to expand this registry. Methods A prospective, multicenter observational registry created for patients with chronic short at specialized centers America. Demographics, clinical characteristics, nutrition assessment, parenteral management, rehabilitation, related complications, outcome, and survival were analyzed....
Background: Type III Intestinal Failure (IF) due to short bowel syndrome remains a rare condition. Few registries worldwide are able collect prospective information on diagnoses, management, complications and outcomes in the subject. Aim: report progression, updated results future steps of RESTORE amendment registry. Methods: A multicenter observational registry was created 2017 for adult patients with type III-IF SBS Argentina (RESTORE). In May 2020, it amended order include pediatric...
Chronic intestinal failure due to short bowel syndrome is a severe and complex disease that requires specialized multidisciplinary treatment. Parenteral nutrition the fundamental support in these patients; however, long term, complications associated with it may develop contraindicate its continuity. In this context, an isolated or combined transplant (liver-intestine) last alternative recover sufficiency. Since 2012 was introduced world, use of semisynthetic GLP2 peptide, called...
Introduction: There is no centralized registered information regarding patients (pts) suffering from Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) in Argentina. Estimations based on other countries epidemiology predict an incidence of 8–10 new adult pts/year. In order to compile this information, we started a prospective multicenter observational and epidemiological registry for adults with SBS, independent the etiology treatment proposed. We aim present first report RESTORE project. M-M: From 2015 2017,...
