Vertical banded gastroplasty is an accepted surgical treatment for morbid obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate its effect on the natural history of gastritis, as the occurrence of gastritis and dysplasia have been reported after gastric bypass, another type of bariatric surgery.
BACKGROUND
Obesity is a condition that has significant impact on public health. Recent exciting studies have linked chronic gastritis and H. pylori infection to obesity. Chronic gastritis has shown increased prevalence in obesity, more particularly H. pylori-related gastritis. This study aimed to
The aim of this work was to ascertain if diabetes and obesity can affect gastric colonization by Helicobacter pylori. 59 hospitalized subjects with dyspepsia and endoscopic antral gastritis were selected. They were divided into three groups: I) 13 patients with normal body weight and without disease
BACKGROUND
Helicobacter pylori is a major pathogen of stomach. Ghrelin is secreted from the stomach, and it plays a role in the coordination of eating behavior, and facilitates fat storage and weight regulation. The effects of H. pylori infection on gastric ghrelin production are still not well
Obesity has become a major concern among gastroenterologists due to its large influence on gastrointestinal and hepatic diseases: reflux esophagitis, pancreatitis, gallstone disease, liver fibrosis, and neoplastic tumors of the esophagus, pancreas, and colon. Studies of morbid obese subjects
Introduction: The one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is a widely diffused surgical procedure for morbid obesity. Several studies considered OAGB at risk for biliary reflux and anastomotic ulcers. The aim of the study was to evaluate
Recently, significant attention has been paid to the possible activation of an autoimmune response in the presence of obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the frequencies of autoantibodies typical of autoimmune diabetes in obese patients with normal glucose tolerance (NGT),
Persistent infections that induce prolonged inflammation might negatively affect the leukocyte telomere length (LTL); however, the role in LTL of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, which persistently colonizes the stomach, remains unknown. The study objective was to examine Atrophic gastritis is characterized by chronic inflammation of gastric mucosa by Helicobacter pylori infection and other factors. Helicobacter pylori infection has been linked to coronary artery disease. To our knowledge, however, no reports are available on the relationship between atrophic
There is a paucity of data regarding gastritis as a technical factor affecting the surgical technique. Antritis and gastritis usually cause stomach wall thickness which can interrupt stapler function or even can cause serosal tear during the dissection. We report a video presentation of laparoscopic
BACKGROUND
Studies suggest that the incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection in obese patients, including those undergoing gastric reduction surgery, may be increased.
METHODS
We examined the histologic findings at the time of surgery in a series of patients who were undergoing Roux-en-Y gastric
The article is about the characteristics of the morphofunctional state of the upper gastrointestinal tract (UGIT) in children with obesity. Under supervision there were 130 children aged 10-16 years: study group--80 children with obesity (42 boys and 38 girls) (SDS BMI 2.0), the comparison group--50
OBJECTIVE
To prospectively evaluate the frequency of upper gastrointestinal symptoms and associated disorders in morbidly obese patients with endoscopy and histology prior to their gastric bypass surgery in comparison with age- and sex-matched nonobese control subjects.
METHODS
All patients who were
