This study was undertaken to clarify the importance of nutritional status in patients with acute cholecystitis, and also evaluate whether they benefited from enteral nutrition supplementation, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), during the convalescent stage. Patients with acute
Clinical examination and biochemical studies revealed hepatic functional disorders in 30 (93.75 +/- 4.28%) of 32 patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and chronic non-calculous cholecystitis (NCC) and only in 3 (13.63 +/- 7.32%) of 22 patients with CC without MS. Most patients with CC and MS had
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with acute cholecystitis and liver cirrhosis is associated with increased risk. We present an obese patient with acute cholecystitis and liver cirrhosis caused by nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), who was successfully managed with Over the last few years, weight loss has been recognised as a key factor in the control and prevention of coronary heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, cardiorespiratory failure and other chronic degenerative diseases. It has been shown that even a modest loss of 5% of
Glurenorm, a IInd generation sulfanylurea preparation, was used for a year as a sugar-reducing drug in 20 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and concomitant diseases of the liver (cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, n = 5) and biliferous duct (cholelithiasis, a state following
OBJECTIVE
Introduction: Today, diabetes is considered a factor that provokes the development of bile duct disease. Cholelithiasis is associated with such risk factors as aging, high body mass index, female sex, genetic predisposition, alcohol abuse, high concentration of triglycerides and
There are increasing challenges for the practising gastroenterologist in treating AIDS-related gastrointestinal diseases. The differential diagnoses of dysphagia and odynophagia include cytomegalovirus (CMV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection, non-specific aphthous ulceration and non-AIDS
In a 68-year-old male hospitalized for a traffic accident physical examination revealed a left tibial fracture and an asymptomatic left pleural effusion. The evolution was characterized essentially by the appearance of oedema of the legs, ascites, and aggravation of the left pleural effusion with
Treatment options for HIV-infected patients can be limited due to viral drug resistance to antiretroviral agents. Enfuvirtide (ENF) is an injectable entry/fusion inhibitor that is effective in achieving viral suppression when used in combination with protease inhibitors (PIs) in patients with
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is characterized by chest pain as well as cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and electrocardiography (ECG) changes. Recently, clinical researchers have used the term "MINOCA" to indicate myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries. To BACKGROUND
Pancreatitis complicating HIV infection, even in the Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) era, remains a management challenge. We felt there is a need to discern patterns in the biochemical markers, radiological studies, co-infections, length of stay (LOS) in patients with HIV or
Aetiologic factors (gallstones, hyperlipidemia I-IV, hypertriglyceridaemia) make their occurrence, mainly, in the third trimester of gestation. Two cases of acute pancreatitis in pregnancy are described; in both cases patients referred healthy diet, no habit to smoke and no previous episode of
OBJECTIVE
To study content and correlation of lipids in the serum and bile from diabetic patients with biliary diseases (BD).
METHODS
Serum and bile lipids were studied biochemically in 125 patients with BD and diabetes mellitus and 87 healthy control subjects aged 20-59 years. Serum lipids were
BACKGROUND
Xanthogranulomatous inflammation is recognized as a subtype of cholecystitis; however, it can also occur in other organs. Xanthogranulomatosis of the kidney, bone, ovary, endometrium, vagina, prostate, lymph nodes and pancreas was reported. Herein, we report a case of laparoscopic
We report a 40-year-old woman with retroperitoneal multiple cystic lymphangioma. Multiple cystic lesions were found on both sides of the aorta in the retroperitoneal and right pelvic spaces. These thin-walled cysts gradually increased in size leading to left hydronephrosis and dilatation of the
