abstract introduction: there are many studies about the inhibitory effect of the esophageal distention (ed) on gastric motility. recently, it has been shown that ed decreases the gastric secretions. it is well established that the inhibitory effect of ed is mediated by activation of vago-vagal inhibitory reflex. however, there is not any investigation about the effect of the reflex on the gastr...

Introduction: Gastric drainage disorder is one of the complications of gastric pull-up and esophagectomy after surgery which might lead to esophageal cancer and benign strictures. The aim of this study was to determine the role of pyloromyotomy on gastric drainage. Materials and Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled clinical trial study, we studied 51 patients in two matched groups...

introduction: the effect of esophageal distension (ed) on gastric motility has been well documented, but a few investigations have been carried out on the effect of ed on gastric secretion. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ed on gastric acid and pepsin secretion and the mechanism(s) involved. methods: male adult wistar rats (200-240 g) were anesthetized with urethane (1.2 ...

ABSTRACT Introduction: Formation of gastric ulcer is a multifactorial process so that vascular changes, mucous secretion, gastric acid and gastrointestinal tract mucous biochemistry are involved in gastric ulcers. Despite therapeutic properties, ibuprofen as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) can cause mucosal lesions in the stomach. In this study, the effect of Matri...

Objective(s): Transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-α) has been shown to modulate the gastric acid secretion. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on TGF-α expression in gastric mucosa in rats. Materials and Methods: Eighteen rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (6 per group). To determine the effect of NaHS on gene and protein ...

Background: Cancer is the priority of the World Health Organization (WHO) and a serious challenge in death of human untimely. Assessment of social and physiological risk factors in gastric carcinoma patients can reveal the reasons of high prevalence gastric carcinoma in Sanandaj city. Methods: In a descriptive cross-sectional study, the variables of sex, age, education, occupation and active H...

objective: gut–brain axis (gba) is very important in creation and modulation of gastrointestinal problems. aloe vera gel has gastroprotective properties. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of aloe vera leaves on the gastric acid secretion and brain and intestinal water content following acetic acid gastric ulcer induction. materials and methods: gastric ulce...
