Hyposplenism in gastro-intestinal disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The hazards of living without a spleen were recognised by the paediatricians in the early 1960’s when they focussed attention on the syndrome of fulminant sepsis, often due to pneumococcal infection, occurring in young children within the first two years

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

The role of the novel Th17 cytokine IL-26 in intestinal inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background and aims: Interleukin 26 (IL-26), a novel IL-10-like cytokine without a murine homologue, is expressed in T helper 1 (Th1) and Th17 cells. Currently, its function in human disease is completely unknown. The aim of this study was to analyse its

Wireless Capsule Device for Targeted and Safe Tissue Biopsy with Integrated Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents a capsule device featuring a novel magnetically controlled biopsy mechanism for enhanced safety. The biopsy unit integrates a foldable linkage with dual magnets, creating a magnetic attraction–based safeguard, preventing unintended activation during locomotion. A flexible sensor provides real‐time penetration displacement sensing for

Does ursodeoxycholic acid change the proliferation of the colorectal mucosa? A randomized, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: In animal models ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) showed a chemoprotective effect against colon cancer. To explain this, a reduced proliferation of the colorectal mucosal proliferation was suggested.

Multitasking Smart Intestinal Capsule Robot: A Cutting‐Edge Platform for Sampling, Diagnosis, and Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Gut microbiota and biomarkers are linked to diseases like neurological disorders and metabolic syndromes. Ingestible capsule robots enable minimally invasive gut health assessment. This article proposes a promising direction for the advancement of capsule robots, integrating in situ sampling, real‐time diagnostics, and personalized therapy.

ULCERATIVE COLITIS IN CHILDREN [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Pediatrics, 2009
Chronic nonspecific ulcerative colitis remaine a disease of unkown etiology, although much new information continues to be gleaned from basic research and clinical trials. In most instances, ulcerative colitis respond to medical therapy.

Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch reservoir in ulcerative colitis : the first series from Malta [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Seventy five to eighty percent of patients with ulcerative colitis are more or less satisfactorily treated medically. Surgery cures the disease, but because proper surgical therapy has until recently necessitated a permanent ileostomy, physicians and ...

Evaluation of the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract in Ulcerative Colitis Patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with ulcerative colitis who have upper gastrointestinal lesions, we retrospectively reviewed the data of 216 patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy at our institute in
