Next‐Generation Therapies for Gastrointestinal Repair: Converging Traditional Medicine and Tissue Engineering

JGH Open, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The gastrointestinal (GI) tract plays a vital role in regulating metabolic pathways, nutrient absorption, and cellular homeostasis. Abnormalities in the GI tract often arise from unhealthy lifestyles, genetic mutations, and prolonged medication use, leading to disorders such as ulcers, cirrhosis, and malignancies.

A case of amebic colitis: A potentially fatal mimicker of inflammatory bowel disease

JPGN Reports, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 420-422, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Amebiasis, caused by Entamoeba histolytica, can present diagnostic challenges due to its diverse clinical manifestations and potential for misdiagnosis, particularly in regions with low incidence rates. We report a case of a 9‐year‐old girl initially diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease but later confirmed to have amebic colitis.
