The development and course of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are significantly influenced by inflammation oxidative stress. Antioxidant therapy is a promising therapeutic option to enhance the clinical results these individuals in this particular scenario. purpose study assess impact curcumin, with or without piperine, on cytokines, fecal calprotectin (CalF), stress enzymatic non-enzymatic indicators patients IBD.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn's (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), lacks a known etiology. Although clinical symptoms, imaging, colonoscopy are common diagnostic tools, fecal calprotectin (FC) serves as widely used biomarker to track activity. Metabolomics, within the omics sciences, holds promise for identifying progression biomarkers. This approach involves studying metabolites in biological media uncover pathological factors. The purpose of this study was explore...
Abstract The relationship between hypovitaminosis D and the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is well established in countries with high prevalence incidence IBD low exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation. However, only some studies included emerging countries, which have an increasing diverse climate social conditions. This cross-sectional study's purpose evaluate its activity patients treated at a reference service country. study analyzed medical records 113 from June 2022...
The aim of this study was to report circulating cell-free DNA using ALU247 and ALU247/ALU115 biomarkers in serum operated non-operated patients with colorectal cancer (CRC).To undertake this, 90 blood samples were collected, including 30 from healthy volunteers; 27 CRC 33 CRC-operated patients. Circulating verified through quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) ALU115 primers.With regard the ALU115-qPCR biomarker, increased levels significant when compared control (p<0.05). Moreover, ALU247-qPCR...

Method This was descriptive cross-sectional study whose...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are the primary inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), its pathogenesis is related to genetic environmental factors. Currently, diagnosis of IBD results in a multidisciplinary approach with significant disadvantages, such as invasive nature, time spent, fact that 10% patients remain without diagnostic classification. However, new methodologies analysis have emerged allowed expansion knowledge about IBD, metabolomics, study metabolites....
Abstract Introduction Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), represented by Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic idiopathic inflammatory conditions involving the gastrointestinal tract. There several epidemiological studies that have shown an increased incidence of IBD worldwide.

Ultra-low-dose Spinal Anesthesia (SA) is the practice of employing minimal doses intrathecal agents so that only roots supply a specific area are anesthetized. The aim this study was to compare effectiveness and safety ultra-low-dose spinal anesthesia with Perineal Blocks (PB).A two-arm, parallel, double-blind randomized controlled trial comparing two anesthetic techniques (SA PB) for hemorrhoidectomy anal fistula surgery performed. primary outcomes were postoperative pain, complementation...
Abstract Background Anti-TNF therapy represented a landmark in medical treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). There is lack data on the efficacy and safety these agents Brazilian patients. The present study aimed to analyze rates clinical endoscopic remission comparatively, between adalimumab (ADA) infliximab (IFX), patients with UC, evaluate factors associated after 1 year treatment. Methods A national retrospective multicenter (24 centers) was performed including UC treated anti-TNF...
Background and Objective: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are the main cause of death in hospitalized individuals worldwide, related with preexisting disease invasive procedures. The present study aimed to identify microorganisms a immunosuppressed patient their antimicrobial resistance profile. Case report: A 33-year-old man Crohn's was admitted hospital for an enterostomy cholecystectomy, postoperative fever gastrointestinal bleeding. Infections urinary tract, into bloodstream...
Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a problem that directly affects the quality of life patients suffering from this condition. Monitoring serum level infliximab (IFX) (TDM) an important tool for guiding therapeutic decisions in IBD patients. The purpose study was to determine significance quantitatively measuring IFX and antibody (ATI). Methods materials: Prospective observational involving 40 on therapy, including 14 Proactive (week 06 induction phase) 26 Reactive (maintenance...
