Coeliac disease in the ERA of the new ESPGHAN and BSPGHAN guidelines: a prospective cohort study

To evaluate the consequences of the last European Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) and British Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (BSPGHAN) guidelines for the diagnosis of coeliac disease (CD) by means of a prospective study

Intestinal transplantation

Intestinal transplantation is often the only alternative form of treatment for patients dependent on total parenteral nutrition for survival. Although a limited number of intestinal transplantations have been performed, results with FK 506 immunosuppression are comparable to those for other organ transplants. The impact of successful intestinal transplantation on gastroenterology will likely be similar to the impact of kidney and liver transplantation on nephrology and hepatology

Gastroenterology and Hepatology Experts\u27 Views about the Current Information Retrieval Systems and Determining the Characteristics of the Optimal System from Their Point of View

Objective: The ideal goal of any information system is to supply and deliver the information that users need. The aim of this study is to determine gastroenterology and hepatology experts\u27 views about the current information retrieval systems and determining the characteristics of the optimal system from their point of view. Methods: This is qualitative research that has been done phenomenologically. The study population 14 gastroenterology and hepatology experts. The data collection tool was a free interview in a non-structured way. Colaizzi\u27s descriptive phenomenological method was used to collect data. Results: The problems were classified into 3 categories, 15 general themes, and 31 sub-themes. The optimal information retrieval systems were classified into 4 categories, 12 general themes, and 41 sub-themes. Conclusions: The success of information retrieval systems, especially in the field of medical sciences, depends on considering various dimensions that not paying attention to them can lead to dissatisfaction of end-users of the system and ultimately the failure of the retrieval system. Therefore, it is suggested that information retrieval system design be done by developers under the characteristics of the optimal information retrieval system by gastroenterology and hepatology expert

Evaluation of rapid diagnostic tests for assessment of hepatitis B in resource-limited settings

Chronic Hepatitis B (HBV) is the most important cause of liver disease worldwide. There is a need for low-cost tests to aid in diagnosis and management of HBV infection in resource-limited settings. We evaluated the utility of several rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) in three different continents (Europe, South America, Africa). The HBsAg RDT showed optimal sensitivity and specificity. The anti-HBeAb RDT showed acceptable sensitivity and excellent specificity. Our results suggest that these RDTs could be used for screening and management of HBV.Fil: Leathers, James S..

Functional bowel disease : a challenging frontier in gastroenterology

The last 30 years have seen incredible advances in the science and practice of gastroenterology and hepatology. In the 1970s, the fiberoptic endoscopic revolution facilitated the visualization of the mucosa of a large segment of the gastrointestinal tract and afforded the opportunity for specialized studies using histological and biochemical analyses. The impact of fiberoptic endoscopy on surveillance or screening for cancer of the colon will be more apparent in the next millennium. Novel pharmacological approaches have had a dramatic impact on gastroenterology.peer-reviewe
