Objective: Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), a worldwide health problem, is the cause of 2019 coronavirus disease. This study aimed to compare the trace element (selenium and iron), electrolyte (calcium and sodium), and physical activity levels of COVID-19 patients before and after COVID-19 treatment.
Method: This prospective study was conducted in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 (n = 15).
Article Synopsis
- Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) can occur in children after unintentional ingestion of acid, with the study highlighting an occurrence rate of 8.2% among 98 patients.
- All affected children required surgical intervention, specifically gastrojejunostomy, which allowed for a fast recovery post-surgery with oral feeding resuming as early as the third day.
- Long-term follow-ups indicated that this surgical treatment led to positive outcomes, as no significant late complications were reported, especially in cases without severe gastric damage.
Background/purpose: Helicobacter pylori is a microorganism known to colonize in gastric type of mucosa and is associated with gastritis and peptic ulceration. The aim of the study was to determine whether colonization of H pylori in heterotopic gastric mucosa plays a role in bleeding of Meckel's diverticulum.
Methods: Histopathologic slides of patients who had undergone resection of Meckel's diverticulum in recent 5 years were reexamined for the presence of H pylori in heterotopic gastric mucosa.
