Unlabelled: The occurrence of chronic diarrhea after cholecystectomy (CCY) has been described by many researchers. However, the main mechanisms of the development of this diarrhea are not fully understood. Supposed that dysregulation of the bile acids (ВA) absorption in the ileum is played a significant role in the development of diarrhea syndrome.

Aim: To estimate the diagnostic value (DV) of direct markers of liver fibrosis, such as type IV collagen (C-IV), hyaluronic acid (HA), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) in combination with indirect markers of fibrosis, such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GTP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), platelets, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in evaluating liver fibrosis.
Subjects And Methods: Sixty-seven patients with chronic diffuse liver diseases were examined. ALT, AST, gamma-GTP, and ALP were determined as indirect indicators of fibrosis.
Background: Nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs represent an important osteoarthritis (OA) therapy component, but also a leading cause of gastropathy: one of the most frequent and serious OA therapy complications. The aim of the present study was to study the influence of GI health in an OA population receiving either ginger or diclofenac.
Methods: Forty-three (43) patients with confirmed OA (knee and hip) were included in a randomized controlled study.

In order to identify features of the course pancreatic diabetes and discussion of the principles of conservative therapy were examined 66 patients with CP in age of 30 to 65 years (55 men, 11 women). Among them in 22 cases disease was followed with formation of calcification of pancreas, 13 - pancreatic cysts, and 5 revealed pseudo tumor form of CP, 10 patients had clinical and laboratory evidence of diabetes. Concerning CP complicated course were performed 14 resection and 11 draining operations on the pancreas.

Subjects And Methods: Sixty-six patients (55 men and 11 women) aged 30 to 65 years with chronic pancreatitis (CP) were examined. The disease was accompanied with pancreatic calcification and cyst formation in 22 and 13 patients, respectively; 5 patients were found to have a pseudotumorous form of CP and 10 had clinically and laboratorily verified DM.

The article presents literature data on the diagnostic value of the new indicator of the epithelial damage of the small intestine--I-FABP (protein binding fatty acids) and the results of our investigation of this indicator in 63 patients with functional bowel disease, and 20--the control group presented patients with erosive gastritis. Also presented diagnostic value of this indicator and defined the boundaries of normal values for this indicator.

The development of the gastrointestinal tract requiring surgical intervention was determined not only by the degree of pathological process activity, endotoxemia level dysbiotic bowel disturbances, but also disturbances in the patient's immune system. The aim of our study was to examine the influence of gut microbiota and endotoxemia on the development of comorbidity and functional status of the liver in patients after hemicolectomy.

With aging, changes microbiocaenosis intestine, resulting in an increase in the total number of microbes in the gut and profound changes in the functional properties of microorganisms. Under physiological conditions, the main reservoir of endotoxin in the human body is the intestine.

With the help of a questionnaire MOS SF-36 were asked 80 patients with CP, of whom 15 patients were after the operation, the PDR, 10 patients underwent draining operations, 15 patients had a history of pancreatic necrosis, in 20 patients with CP were characterized by complications (cyst calcification, kalkulez, pseudotumoral form of HP, diabetes) and surgical interventions were not performed in 20 CPs proceeded without complications. Were obtained significant differences on all scales of the questionnaire with the control group all CP patients.

The Aim was to study the levels of gepsidin in patients with IBD and determine its prognostic significance for the development of anemia. We examined 80 patients with IBD, 45 (56%) men and 35 (44%) women with the average age of 39,0 +/- 15,8 years.

Therapy of IBD is relief of inflammation, but the drugs usage may cause the development hemolytic anemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. We studied the effect of basic therapy on the incidence of anemia and assess the impact of modern biological therapies on the main markers of AHZ.

The Aim: To investigate the role of hormones and the types of FB in the development of morbid obesity (MO), to develop a treatment policy for MO to examine the diagnostic predictive value of the FB hormones and FB modifications.
Materials And Methods: Were investigated 67 patients: 28 (42%) males and 39 (58%) female aged 18 to 60 years under the scheme: medical history, questionnaire on the questionnaire SF-36, score types of FB, the study of the anthropometric data (OT/OB, BMI), the definition of the FB hormones with subsequent control of BMI, OT/OB dynamics, types and FB hormones.
Results: In patients older than 50 years were dominated abdominal FB, in patients younger than 50 years - all three types of FB in approximately equal proportions.
The level of cholecystokinin and secretin in 50 patients after cholecystectomy (from 1 to 10 years ago) was analyzed to study connection between cholecystectomy and gastrointestinal hormones concentration. 30 patients with gall bladder stone disease were included into the group of comparison. Cholecystokinin and secretin concentration in the groups of research was compared with indicated hormones concentration in the group of control formed of healthy volunteers.
