Download or read book Update Gastroenterology 2006 written by Peter Malfertheiner and published by John Libbey Eurotext. This book was released on 2007-01-18 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug-induced mucosal damage is of immense importance in gastroenterology. It is imperative that clinicians understand how these lesions come about, what the sometimes devastating consequences are and what can be done to prevent or to treat such calamities. Drug-induced damage is bound to increase in the future as the population ages and polypharmacy becomes the rule instead of the exception. Hopes for improvement were shattered when the long term consequences of COX-2 inhibition became available. Is the COX-1/COX-2 concept truly obsolete? Several issues are discussed by European experts in the second part of the book. What the clinician should know about non acid, weakly acid or biliary reflux is discussed in depth. Novel developments of gastrointestinal neuropathies and motor disorders concentrate on IBS, pseudo-obstruction and faecal incontinence. Our surgical colleagues will certainly be interested in novel minimally invasive procedures. Finally all will learn from a critical analysis of novel diagnostic imaging modalities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the proceedings of an international symposium held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, June 12-15 1996, and sponsored by Axcan Pharma, the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology and the Canadian Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons. While the etiology and cure of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remain elusive, it is safe to say that there have been exciting advances in the field since the last symposium was held two years ago. A faculty of international experts from a range of disciplines - including molecular genetics, physiology, epidemiology, pediatrics, gastroenterology and surgery - was assembled and provided updates on the most current and controversial areas. The first part of the book is devoted to a review of advances in determining the etiology of IBD with focus on mucosal inflammation and genetics. The clinical part of the book includes sessions on ileal pouches, new therapies for the treatment of Crohn's disease, controversies related to the management of ulcerative colitis, cancer risk in IBD and management of IBD in the pediatric population. This volume will be of interest to both gastroenterologists and colon and rectal surgeons, whether concerned with basic science or clinical practice.

Download or read book Advances in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases written by P. Rutgeerts and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998-12-31 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease remain a great therapeutic challenge to the medical community. In recent years knowledge about the pathogenesis of these diseases has progressed rapidly but the cause of the diseases remains completely unknown. It has become clear that dysregulation of the mucosal immune system is the basis for the chronic evolution of the diseases in a genetically susceptible population. Exciting new therapeutic approaches have been attempted in the last couple of years and cytokine and anti-cytokine treatments in particular seem very promising, especially in intractable disease. The format of the Falk Symposium 106 on `Advances in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases', held in Brussels, Belgium, June 18-20, 1998, was somewhat innovative as each session attempted to link the new insights into pathogenetic mechanisms with new therapeutic approaches, resulting in optimal information transfer. The classic therapeutic schemes were updated with a special focus on step-wise build-up of therapy.
