Bloating Abdominal Distention (BAD) is not OK!!

Abstract
Abdominal bloating is a very common and troublesome symptom of all ages, but it has not been fully understood to date. Bloating is usually
associated with functional gastrointestinal disorders or organic diseases, but it may also appear with no specific reasons. Studies have revealed
that 15–30% of the general United States (US) population experiences bloating symptoms, compared with about 15% reported in an Asian
population.
Tummy bloating every day, unless you have eaten too much or are menstruating, is not okay, and it amounts to a gut disorder. The
pathophysiology of bloating remains ambiguous, although some evidence supports the potential mechanisms, like gut hypersensitivity, impaired
gas handling, altered gut microbiota, and abnormal abdominal-phrenic reflexes have been put forth. No treatment is of unequivocally beneficial
to all. Dietary intervention is important in relieving symptom in patients with bloating. Medical treatment with some prokinetics, rifaximin,
lubiprostone and linaclotide could be considered in the treatment of bloating. In this manuscript I have tried to analyse 5 cases of abdominal
bloating including autobiographical cases in the last 2 decades and their medical management. GI system pathological causes are kept out of the
purview of this article

A Modified Sequential Regimen of Helicobacterpylori Treatment Enforced by Bacillus clausii and Zinc Carnosine Complex Yields High Eradication Rates_Juniper Publishers

  ADVANCED RESEARCH IN GASTROENTEROLOGY & HEPATOLOGY JUNIPER PUBLISHERS   Authored by Dajani AI      Abstract Introduction: Over the past decade a worldwide trend of decline in the cure rates of Helicobacter pylori is observed. Current eradication rates achieved by the standard triple therapy are below 70%. Sequential therapy had provided a potential alternative that would compensate for the unmet performance of triple therapy. Despite its superiority to triple therapy, the excellent results reported initially were not reproduced by other investigators work. Adding adjuvant agents was also found to improve further the success rate of eradication. Probiotics emerged as a useful adjunct in treatment and prophylaxis of Helicobacter pylori infection. The nutritional supplement Zinc carnosine complex is another adjuvant which is believed to add value to the treatment. Patients and method: an open label randomized observational clinical study ...

Association between Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Carotid Atherosclerosis-Juniper Publishers

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...

Discussion on Liver Preoperative Planning System Based on Deep Learning_Juniper Publishers

Image
      ADVANCED RESEARCH IN GASTROENTEROLOGY & HEPATOLOGY JUNIPER PUBLISHERS     Authored by Nishant Shukla    Abstract Liver cancer has become the second largest cancer death rate in the world, and the prevention and treatment of liver diseases is extremely urgent. 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...
