Preliminary research suggests that rectally administered nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs may reduce the incidence of pancreatitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).In this multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial, we assigned patients at elevated risk for post-ERCP to receive a single dose rectal indomethacin or placebo immediately ERCP. Patients were determined be high on basis validated patient- and procedure-related factors....
Abstract Major problems in stem cell biology revolve around defining the developmental potential of populations and understanding how their is maintained or progressively restricted. Oxygen (O 2 ) an obvious environmental factor which has received little attention culturing skeletal muscle progenitor cells. In this work, we examine effects O levels on potential, proliferative capacity, phenotype adult fiber population (satellite cells), lines that model multipotential embryonic paraxial...
A recent large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) demonstrated that rectal indomethacin administration is effective in addition to pancreatic stent placement (PSP) for preventing post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) high-risk cases. We performed a post hoc analysis of this RCT explore whether can replace PSP the prevention PEP and estimate potential cost savings such an approach.We retrospectively classified subjects into four groups: (1) no...

Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients often report symptom flares after colonoscopy. However, this has not been documented in the literature.1. Determine whether colonoscopy is associated with increased UC symptoms. 2. there a need for escalation of medications 3. Identify baseline variables symptoms colonoscopy.Fifty-five outpatients history UC, intact colon, and quiescent disease were enrolled prospective case-crossover study. Subjects evaluated Simple Clinical Colitis Activity Index (SCCAI)...
Summary Background Twenty per cent of patients with heartburn do not respond to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Many have normal oesophageal acid exposure. We hypothesized that such PPI non‐responders heightened sensation, and hypersensitivity is associated psychiatric features including somatization anxiety. Aim To compare sensation in subjects categorized by response PPI, correlate features. Methods Twenty‐one responders, nine 20 healthy volunteers completed questionnaires disorders...
Abstract Background The prevalence and significance of digestive manifestations in COVID-19 remain uncertain. Methods Consecutive patients hospitalized with were identified across a geographically diverse alliance medical centers North America. Data pertaining to baseline characteristics, symptomatology, laboratory assessment, imaging, endoscopic findings from the time symptom onset until discharge or death manually abstracted electronic health records characterize prevalence, spectrum,...
Objective: Colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) should be a necessary part of gynecology (GYN) providers' preventive practices. The purpose our study is to examine CRCS recommendations and adherence in this population. Methods: A questionnaire was administered prospective cohort patients awaiting health maintenance exams at six academic private offices. Patients reported demographics, CRC/breast/cervical adherence, recommendations, future likelihood CRCS. Results: total 461 women aged 51 years...
Goal . To prospectively assess physician recommendations for repeat colonoscopy in an average-risk screening cohort. Background. Endoscopists’ adherence to colorectal cancer and surveillance guidelines have not been well characterized. Furthermore, little is known about patient factors that are associated with endoscopists’ nonadherence guideline recommendation. Study This a prospective cohort of patients undergoing between August 2011 January 2013. The primary outcome was assessment...
