Despite multiple therapy regimens, the decline in Helicobacter pylori eradication rate poses a significant challenge to medical community. Adding Lactobacillus reuteri probiotic as an adjunct treatment has shown some promising results. This study aims investigate efficacy of DSM 17648 H. and its effect ameliorating gastrointestinal symptoms adverse effects.This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial involved treatment-naïve pylori-positive patients.

Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) poses a significant challenge in chronic pain management, particularly patients with obesity, where excess weight exacerbates spinal strain and pain. Bariatric has been explored as potential adjunctive treatment for relief by reducing mechanical stress systemic inflammation. We report the case of 42-year-old woman history FBSS, pain, narcolepsy, rheumatoid arthritis, who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy part multidisciplinary management strategy....
Intragastric balloon (IGB) placement is a widely used, minimally invasive intervention for obesity and metabolic disorders, offering temporary, reversible alternative weight management. It generally well tolerated, with most complications being mild self-limiting, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort. However, in rare cases, more serious can arise, including gastric ulceration, migration, and, extreme perforation. The latter occur at any time from days to months after insertion,...
Abstract Background On November 25, 2021, the IFSO-Asia–Pacific Chapter (IFSO-APC) Virtual Meeting 2021 was held online, and representatives from Asia–Pacific region presented 10 years of change in bariatric/metabolic surgery influence COVID-19 special session “IFSO-APC National Reports 2010–2020”.

Bariatric surgery is currently the most durable weight loss solution for patients with morbid obesity. The extent of achieved, however, subject to variation due various factors, including patients’ behaviour. In this study, we aimed identify pre- and post-surgical predictors following bariatric surgery. This prospective study included 57 participants who went through (laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: n = 30; laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: 23; one anastomosis bypass-mini 4) in two...
Prosthetic mesh is now used routinely in inguinal hernia repairs, although its fixation thought to be a potential cause of chronic groin pain. The Parietene ProGrip™ (TYCO Healthcare) mesh, which semi-resorbable and incorporates self-fixing properties, has been shown provide satisfactory repair open surgery. We describe the use this TAPP repair, not previously reported literature. A prospective study 29 patients showed mean operative time 47.6 min, with 96% discharged home on day surgery or...
Abstract Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an alarming problem globally a growing epidemic. Metabolic surgery has been shown to be successful in treating both obesity T2DM, usually after other treatments have failed. This study aims compare Roux-Y gastric bypass sleeve gastrectomy determining early diabetic outcomes obese Malaysian patients with T2DM following surgery. A total of 172 who were assigned either laparoscopic Roux-en-Y (LRYGB) or (LSG) analysed up year...
There is an increasing trend in the number of bariatric surgeries performed worldwide, partly because surgery most effective treatment for morbid obesity. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) remains common procedure performed, representing more than 50% all primary interventions. Major surgical complications SG include staple-line bleeding, leaking, and stenosis. A leak along commonly occurs at gastroesophageal junction (GOJ). From January 2018 to December 2018, our centre 226 procedures, which, 97.8%...
INTRODUCTION: Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of alimentary tract but accounts for only 0.1-3% all gastrointestinal neoplasms.The presentation GISTs is acute or chronic bleeding, in which patient presents with symptomatic anaemia.PRESENTATION OF CASE: With that mind, we describe a 66-year-old man who presented recurrent episodes obscure bleeding two years.Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) showed several small telangiectasias proximal bowel.Oral...
Expression of cluster differentiation (CD) antigens changes according to disease status and inflammation. Profiles CD expression in gastric cancer patients are different based on the H. pylori infection.We conducted this study profile antigen markers adenocarcinoma cells (AGS cell line) infected with distinct cytotoxin-associated gene A (cagA) genotypes clinical isolates.The AGS were isolates cagA genotypes, was determined using DotScan™ antibody microarray. Formation "hummingbird" phenotype...
