Metabolic problems associated with gastrointestinal and pancreatic disease.
With the skin and special senses, the gastrointestinal tract is unique in its exposure to the changes and vicissitudes of the external environment. However, fine control of all aspects of gut function via neuronal and endocrine mechanisms is essential for adequate nutrition through digestive and absorptive processes. Recent chemical studies have resulted in the isolation and elucidation of a wi...
متن کاملGastrointestinal and metabolic problems associated with immunosuppression with either CyA or FK 506 in liver transplantation.
Since its introduction in 1979, CyA has been the immunosuppression agent of choice in clinical transplantation of all solid organs.1 More recently, a novel new immunosuppressive agent, FK 506, has been introduced in experimental transplantation.2 Most recently, it also has been introduced into clinical liver transplantation. Both agents appear to be T cell-specific and induce their immunosuppre...
متن کاملNutritional problems associated with gastrointestinal and genitourinary cancer.
Cancer involving the alimentary tract may produce signifi cant effects on the nutritional status of the patient. The organs in the gastrointestinal system are among the most metabolically active in the body. Consequently, food depni Vation may adversely affect absorptive capacity and contrib ute to malabsorption by its effect on intestinal mucosal enzymes. Mucosal changes associated with malnut...

In addition, the duodenum, pancreas, mesenteric root, s...

Pancreatic disease may be caused by or co-exist with celiac disease. In this setting, endocrine and exocrine changes may occur. As a result, superimposed, severe clinical changes with marked nutritional alteration may result. Importantly, however, in some, endocrine and exocrine pancreatic function may be improved with a gluten-free diet. Early studies from Europe and the Americas have shown th...
