OBJECTIVE
Aspirin significantly increases the risk of peptic ulcer. Since it remains to be determined whether gastroprotective agents should be used routinely in patients without risk factors who are taking aspirin, more risk factors for aspirin-related peptic ulcer should be detected. In the
The occurrence and complications of diabetes are increasing worldwide. This study examined the prevalence and determinants of diabetic foot ulcers and lower extremity amputations in three selected tertiary hospitals in Ghana.A cross-sectional multicenter OBJECTIVE
We sought to evaluate the effects of muraglitazar, a dual (alpha/gamma) peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activator within the new glitazar class, on hyperglycemia and lipid abnormalities.
METHODS
A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial was performed in 1,159 patients
Objective: To explore the risk factors of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) in diabetic patients of Uyghur nationality and Han nationality in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Methods: Clinical data of 640 diabetic patients admitted to our ward from January 2015 to November 2016, conforming to the study
The fish oil commercially known as Marine-25 (omega-3 marine triglyceride) is an eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)-rich oil. It was investigated for its ability to inhibit gastric secretion and to protect the gastric mucosa against the injuries caused by pyloric ligation, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
It is now reasonably well established that Helicobacter pylori is the most likely cause for duodenal ulcer. What is not clear is how this infection is related to the excess acid production, why few people with Helicobacter pylori infection have duodenal ulcer and how diet is related to duodenal
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and pressure ulcers (PrU), after controlling for demographic and injury characteristics, socioeconomic factors, health behaviors and fatigue among participants with spinal cord injury
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the relationship between peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and acute pancreatitis.
METHODS
A cohort of 78 patients with acute pancreatitis were included in this study. The presence of PUD and the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) status were assessed by an endoscopic method. The
The varying geographical prevalence of duodenal ulceration has suggested a relationship to staple diet. Previous experiments on animal peptic ulcer models showed that certain foods, particularly the lipid fraction, are ulceroprotective. This paper reports experiments on animal models further to
We studied the relationship between decubitus ulcers and changes in skin blood flow with respect to the presence or absence of a decompression medium. We also studied the relationship between decubitus ulcers and the results of biochemical tests that reflect nutritional status. Two groups of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the possible association between minor recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAUs) and plasma lipid levels.
METHODS
85 patients (50 female, 35 male) with minor RAUs and another 80 patients (52 female, 28 male) without minor RAUs were included in the study. Body mass index (BMI),
Aspiration biopsy of the mucosa from the beginning of the jejunum was conducted in 43 patients with duodenal ulcer (during exacerbation) and in 15 normal subjects (control group). The biopsy sample was used to study the jejunum activity in providing the initial stages of triglyceride hydrolysis in
The concentrations of total cholesterol, beta-lipoproteins, and triglycerides were measured three times in 20 to 65 min in venous blood of 45 men (8 normal and 37 patients with peptic ulcer). Lipid concentration in the blood was shown to vary within a wide range in just few minutes, particularly so
Pathophysiological effects following biliary tract reconstruction for benign biliary diseases were investigated from the standpoint of gastric acid secretion, metabolism of nutrients and gastrointestinal hormone release. Patients undergoing Roux-Y hepaticojejunostomy showed a significant increase in
