AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the gastroprotective effects of an oil emulsion (BJOE) on gastric ulcers induced in mice and rats by various methods, including absolute ethanol and aspirin.
- BJOE was found to significantly reduce ulcer severity and overall gastric acidity, showing effectiveness in a dose-dependent manner, as well as improving stomach tissue health according to histopathological evaluations.
- The research suggests that BJOE’s protective effects may be linked to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, potentially positioning it for future clinical applications in treating gastric ulcers.
Article Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the gastroprotective effect of oil emulsion (BJOE) in animals. Gastroprotective potential of BJOE was studied on absolute ethanol, aspirin, reserpine and restraint plus water immersion-induced gastric ulcers in mice as well as glacial acetic acid (GAA) and pyloric ligation (PL)-induced gastric ulcers in rats. Except for ulcer scores, total acidity as well as pepsin activity as for the PL-induced gastric ulcer model and ulcer incidence as for the GAA-induced gastric ulcer model were also determined. Histopathological evaluation as for aspirin, reserpine, PL-induced models was conducted. Results showed that BJOE significantly ( < 0.05) reduced ulcer index in the mouse and rat models in a dose-dependent manner. It had significant ( < 0.05) suppressive effect on total activity of gastric juice as well in PL-induced model. Histopathological examination for the stomach samples confirmed the findings in the aspirin, reserpine or PL-induced gastric lesion models, which showed relatively complete mucosa structure and less inflammation. It is concluded that BJOE could be effective on gastric ulcer in rodents and its gastroprotective activity might be related to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory ability and promote gastric mucus secreted. The results may provide beneficial basis for increasing BJOE's clinical indication in future.

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious medical condition that places patients at high risk of developing gastric ulceration and gastrointestinal bleeding. One preventative strategy involves the use of omeprazole; however, its chronic use is associated with adverse effects, highlighting the need for alternative therapies. This study evaluated the protective effects of methyl eugenol (ME) on gastric mucosal damage in a rat model of SCI.

Gastric ulcer disease and other potentially painful gastric conditions are among the most common afflictions adversely affecting the welfare of domestic equids. A large percentage of affected animals may not display the classic signs of gastric disease, such as unexplained weight loss, poor hair coat, and inappetence until the disease becomes severe. As a clinical service within our equine referral hospital, we routinely evaluate 24-h video recorded samples of horses to assist clinicians in identifying subtle discomfort and potential sources or to scan for infrequent neurologic or cardiac-related behavioral events.

While acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) remains clinically critical, the etiology of bleeding and risk factors for mortality remain uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the underlying causes of AUGIB and identify risk factors associated with fatality. A retrospective survey was conducted in a major clinical hospital in Shanghai, where inpatients diagnosed with AUGIB were meticulously collected and analyzed.

Background Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is one of the most common major medical emergencies. This study sought to determine the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of UGIB in the largest major tertiary care center in Bahrain, compared to regional and international cohorts. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all patients diagnosed with UGIB between April 2021 and April 2022 in Salmaniya Medical Complex, Bahrain's largest tertiary-level public hospital.

Risk stratification tools for the prediction of complications in patients with upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage are crucial for appropriate management. Blood group status has been associated with the risk of bleeding, thrombosis and risk of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). We assessed the influence of blood group status on rebleeding and other complications in 699 patients with PUD bleeding.
