The story of gastric acid secretion began with early ideas on gastric secretion (Spallanzani and de Réaumur, 17th century) and with first descriptions of food digestion (Dupuytren and Bichat, Beaumont, early 18th century), followed by proof that gastric juice contained acid (Prout, early 18th century). The research continued with first descriptions of gastric glands as the source of gastric aci...

background: considering the common origin of skin and peripheral nervous system, a tube of dermal layer of skin hypothetically can be an ideal conduit for nerve reconstruction. an experimental study performed to evaluate the nerve regeneration of efficacy into a dermal tube. methods: sixty male wistar rats were used. a 10 mm gap was produced in right sciatic nerves. in group a the autogenous ne...

peptic ulcers. The first put up by Von Bergmann (1913) regards that chronic peptic ulcers develop because of functional imbalance between vagus and sympathetic nerves, with resulting local or generalized spasm of the musculature and terminal blood vessels of the stomach and duodenum. If this theory be accepted the benefit of vagotomy derives from its motor effect. This might explain the lower p...

Abstract Background Real‐world clinical data on the adverse events related to use of cryoballoon catheter for pulmonary vein isolation remains limited. Objective To report and describe Artic Front catheters (Arctic Front, Arctic Advance, Advance Pro) reported in Food Drug Administration's (FDA) Manufacturers User Defined Experience (MAUDE) database. Methods We reviewed all FDA MAUDE database ov...

The protective sensation threshold is an important concept in the prevention of plantar ulceration in leprosy patients. Previous studies have suggested that skin with sensory nerve damage on the plantar aspect of the foot which can still detect the 5.07 Semmes-Weinstein monofilament (approximately 10 g) is highly unlikely to develop ulceration. While the threshold is thought to be less than the...

the aim of the study was to study the anti-ulcer activity of the methanolic extract of the leaves of capparis zeylanica linn on experimental animal models. the methanol extract of capparis zeylanica linn. leaves was investigated for anti-ulcer activity against aspirin plus pylorus ligation induced gastric ulcer in rats. hcl-ethanol induced ulcer in mice and indomethacin induced ulcer in rats at...

In the present study we investigated the anti-ulcer properties of Tamira Parpam (bio-copper) from earthworm against Aspirin plus pylorus ligation induced gastric ulcer in rats, HCl-Ethanol induced ulcer in mice and water immersion stress induced ulcer in rats. The number of lesions in HCI-Ethanol induced peptic ulcer model and mean score value of ulcer inhibition in water immersion stress induc...

An anatomic study of the vagus nerves in their thoracic course below the pulmonary plexus, and in their distribution to the stomach has been made in 50 cadavers. Because of the recent increase in interest in the relationship of the vagus nerves to peptic ulcer, tlie literature was reviewed and revealed relatively few detailed descriptions of the anatomy of the nerves in this area and difference...

introduction: repair of peripheral nerve injuries is an intensive area of challenge and research in modern reconstructive microsurgery. intensive research is being carried out to develop effective alternatives to the standard nerve autografting, avoiding its drawbacks. the aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a newly designed mechanical device for the reconstruction of the scia...

background and objectives: the etiology, pathophysiology, nomenclature and clinical manifes-tation of solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (srus) is poorly understood. aim: to examine the pathology of mucosal changes and clinical features of this syndrome. materials and methods: the mucosal biopsies of 19 patients with clinical evidence of solitary rectal ulcer as been reviewed in accordance with the...
