BACKGROUND Chronic constipation is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. It has negative effects on patients' quality life, and their productivity, results in a high economic burden healthcare services. The aim present study was to estimate prevalence chronic its associated factors pars cohort (PCS). METHODS A cross-sectional conducted baseline data PCS. Data gathering done by structured questionnaire physical examination. total 9264 subjects aged between 40 75 years were...
Post-Liver transplantation (LT) survival rates stagnate, with biliary complications (BC) as a major cause of death. We analyzed longitudinal data median 19-month follow-up. BC was diagnosed ultrasounds and MRCP. Missing imputed using mean median. Data preprocessing involved feature scaling one-hot encoding. Survival analysis used filter (Cox-P, Cox-c) embedded (RSF, LASSO) selection methods. Seven machine learning algorithms were used: LASSO, Ridge, RSF, E-NET, GBS, C-GBS, FS-SVM. Model...
ABSTRACT Tyrosinemia type 1 often manifests with liver, renal, or peripheral neuropathy disorders. Before therapies like nitisinone, management was limited to dietary modifications and liver transplantation. We present a 19‐month‐old girl who developed respiratory distress requiring intubation, abnormal laboratory findings, including function tests. Further work‐up, succinylacetone testing, confirmed tyrosinemia. She responded remarkably nitisinone treatment.
Hepatic tumors are rare in children. This study was conducted to determine the characteristics of liver masses children and identify independent predictors their survival. Medical records aged <18 years with a confirmed diagnosis hepatic tumor diagnosed between January 2008 December 2023 at two referral centers affiliated Shiraz University Sciences, southern Iran, were reviewed. There 153 tumors. The median age patients 2 (IQR, 1-5) years. Abdominal pain distension, presence palpable mass...
Background Solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (SRUS) is an uncommon disorder that can present with bleeding, passage of mucus, straining during defecation, and a sense incomplete evacuation. As it rare, its incidence uncertain, but has been estimated to be one in 100 000 adults. A few cases, however, have reported pediatric age groups. Patients Methods During period 2.5 years, from September 2003 February 2006, 12 consecutive children prolonged intermittent fresh blood on the surface stools or...

Celiac disease an autoimmune-mediated with intolerance to gluten. The clinical spectrum celiac wide. Patients may present malabsorption symptoms or extra-intestinal involvement, can be totally asymptomatic. association migraine not well known. aim this study was assess prevalence headache, order detect any relationship between them.A total 100 patients...
AIMTo investigate incidence and survival of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) patients after liver transplantation.
The ability of MSCs (mesenchymal stem cells) to differentiate between other cell types makes these cells an attractive therapeutic tool for transplantation. This project was designed improve transdifferentiation human into liver using IGF-I (insulin-like growth factor 1) which, despite its important role in development, has not been used vitro hepatic differentiation. In the present study, derived from healthy bone marrow samples were cultured and characterized by immunophenotyping...
