The aim the present prospective study was to evaluate short-term and long-term impact vagus injury, evaluated by pancreatic polypeptide response insulin-induced hypoglycemia (PP-IH), on outcome ARS.In period from 1990 until 2000, 125 patients with gastroesophageal disease (GERD) underwent ARS at single center. Before 6 months after surgery, integrity testing 24-h pH-monitoring,...
Despite extensive research, anastomotic leakage (AL) remains one of the most dreaded complications after colorectal surgery. Since butyrate enemas are known to enhance healing, several administration routes have been explored in this study. Three intraluminal approaches involving were investigated: (1) butyrin-elucidating patch, (2) a single injection hyaluronan-butyrate (HA-But) prior construction proximal anastomosis and (3) rectal designed for distal anastomoses. The main outcome was AL...
The aim of this research was to study the duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in patients after dietary a cross-over design. DJBL has been proven effective T2DM. However, data on safety efficacy 12-month is limited. In 2014, our group reported multicenter randomized clinical trial. Patients were or (control group). Twenty-eight crossed over their received up 12 months treatment. Patient visits conducted at baseline, during (1 week,...
Abstract Background and Aims To assess safety of the Exilis™ gastric electrical stimulation (GES) system to investigate whether settings can be adjusted for comfortable chronic use in subjects with morbid obesity. Gastric emptying motility meal intake were evaluated. Method In a multicenter, phase 1, open prospective cohort study, 20 morbidly obese (17 female, mean BMI 40.8 ± 0.7 kg/m 2 ) implanted system. Amplitude was individually set during titration visits. Subjects underwent two blinded...
