Later in life, they have a lower risk of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Several components in breast milk may be responsible for these different outcomes, ...

celiac disease is the inability of the small intestine to tolerate some cereal prolamin with sequence specific oligopeptide. wheat gliadin, rye secalins and barley hordenine are the main proteins involved in the disease mechanisms and may provoke an inflammatory process to damage the small intestine. there are different methods to overcome the problems for such patients one of them is using glu...

INTRODUCTION Bleeding within the small intestine is difficult to diagnose and localize because it typically occurs at a slow rate. These patients may undergo multiple transfusions and repeated endoscopy, contrast studies, bleeding scans, and angiography before the bleeding source is identified. CASE REPORT We report a case of 64-year-old woman, where both endoscopic and angiographic technique...

Wireless capsule endoscope (WCE) provides a noninvasive method to examine the entire gastrointestinal (GI) tract including small intestine, which other video endoscopic instruments cannot reach. Since the shape of small intestine is extremely complex and the length of small intestine varies from 5 to 9 meters, localization of the WCE inside the small intestine is very challenging. Traditional r...

While the small intestine accounts for nearly 75% of the total length of the GI tract and more than 90% of the mucosal surface area, less than 25% of all alimentary tract neoplasms and less than 2% of all malignant tumours originate from the small intestine. This could be due to the relatively rapid transit time, liquid content of stools, low bacterial population, and a high concentration of Ig...
