ADVANCED RESEARCH IN GASTROENTEROLOGY & HEPATOLOGY JUNIPER PUBLISHERS   Authored by Kashish Khanna Abstract A full term neonatal baby girl presented with a lumbosacral meningomyelocele and underwent successful excision and repair. In the postoperative period, she developed abdominal distension, bilious vomiting and did not pass stools. Conservative management for ileus/intestinal obstruction failed. The abdominal exploration revealed milk curd syndrome (MCS) as a cause of intestinal obstruction. This article highlights the varied presentation of MCS and salient features to differentiate it from other causes of neonatal intestinal obstruction. Keywords: Neonatal intestinal obstruction; Milk curd syndrome; Inspissated milk syndrome; Milk plug syndrome Abbreviations: MCS: Milk Curd Syndrome; SBE: Small Bowel Obstruction; NEC: Necrotising Enterocolitis; MMC: Meningomyelocele; TCA: Total Colonic Aganglionosis ...

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-ADVANCED RESEARCH IN GASTROENTEROLOGY & HEPATOLOGY Abstract Aim/Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) frequently accompanies to the criteria of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) like obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. It is recently approved as a liver attaint of MetS. While MetS is a highly atherogenic condition we examined whether NAFLD was associated with atherosclerosis, as measured by ultrasound in the carotid arteries. Methods: Carotid intima-media thickness and cardiovascular risk factors were evaluated in 64 patients with an ultrasound diagnosis of primary NAFLD and 64 matched population controls. Metabolic syndrome was established according to WHO and ATP-III criteria. IMT values were evaluated according to protocols of standard measurements of carotid artery. Results: The metabolic syndrome and all its individual features were significantly (P<0.001) more frequent in NAFLD patients than in control subjects. P...

It has grown up to be a hot spot and focus of the world. With the development of medical imaging and the introduction of “precise surgery”, the development of preoperative planning system for liver diseases has become a research hotspot. Accurate preoperative planning system relies on the development of image processing technology, and the introduction and application of deep learning just improve the accuracy of image processing technology and promote the development process of liver preoperative planning system. This paper mainly expounds the main problems of today’s deep learning-based liver preoperative planning system and discusses the solution to the problem and th...
