Published: October 1990

Sometimes duplications of the digestive tract are diagnosed not before adulthood. Single cases of malignant tumours in combination with duplications have been described previously. The poor incidence of this entity is documented by less than 20 reports in the last 107 years. There are so far no reports concerning the development of carcinomas within tubulous duplications of the oesophagus. The case of an adult patient having oesophageal duplication with an adenocarcinoma is reported.

Study Question: Does a human fallopian tube (HFT) organoid model offer a favourable apical environment for human sperm survival and motility?

Summary Answer: After differentiation, the apical compartment of a new HFT organoid model provides a favourable environment for sperm motility, which is better than commercial media.

What Is Known Already: HFTs are the site of major events that are crucial for achieving an ongoing pregnancy, such as gamete survival and competence, fertilization steps, and preimplantation embryo development. In order to better understand the tubal physiology and tubal factors involved in these reproductive functions, and to improve still suboptimal in vitro conditions for gamete preparation and embryo culture during IVF, we sought to develop an HFT organoid model from isolated adult stem cells to allow spermatozoa co-culture in the apical compartment.

A proposal of a fecal scoring system based on physicochemical analyses of suckling pig feces.

January 2025

Departament de Sanitat i Anatomia Animals, Facultat de Veterinària, Campus de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), 08193, Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain.

Background: Digestive disorders are one of the main health problems in suckling piglets. The correct visual identification of feces in suckling piglets is an important tool for the diagnosis of enteric diseases. The aim of the present observational study was to analyze different physicochemical parameters of the feces of suckling piglets aged 0 to 21 days: visual appearance (color and consistency), fecal dry matter (FDM) content and pH.

Background: Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are used to characterize postprandial glucose responses and provide personalized dietary advice to minimize glucose excursions. The efficacy of such advice depends on reliable glucose responses.

Objectives: To explore within-subject variability of CGM responses to duplicate presented meals in an inpatient setting.

Introduction: AIM: The aim of the study is to determine the optimal timing for surgery in patients with small bowel duplications.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study, including all patients younger than 18 years who were diagnosed with small bowel duplications from 2013 until 2024 in a single tertiary medical center, was performed. Patients' demographics, duplication size and location, pathological results, and clinical outcomes were collected.
