Celiac disease prevalence is not increased in patients with functional dyspepsia.

Background: - Previous evidence trying to assess the risk of celiac disease among dyspeptic patients has been inconclusive, showing in some cases notorious discrepancies.

Objective: - To determine the prevalence of celiac disease in patients with dyspepsia compared to healthy controls without dyspepsia.

Methods: - Adult patients under evaluation for dyspepsia were invited to participate.

Introduction: XSome authors have assessed the link between obesity and colon adenoma risk. Moreover, it has been reported that obesity could increase the risk of proximal adenoma development. Accordingly, obese patients may have a distinctive pattern of adenoma recurrence.

Electromagnetic interference with implantable cardiac pacemakers by video capsule.

Background: Electromagnetic fields, such as those generated by cellular phones and metal detectors, may interfere with normal pacemaker function. However, it remains unclear whether the wireless capsule endoscope interacts with implanted pacemakers. This prospective study evaluated potential interactions between the M2A video capsule (Given Imaging, Yoknam, Israel) and implanted pacemakers.
