Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), yet the precise mechanisms underlying its effectiveness remain incompletely understood. While previous research has emphasized the role of rearrangement of the gastrointestinal anatomy, gaps persist regarding the specific impact on the gut microbiota and barriers within the biliopancreatic, alimentary, and common limbs. This study aimed to investigate the effects of duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB) surgery on obese T2DM mice.

Background: Acute small bowel obstruction (aSBO) is the most common cause (76%) of acute intestinal obstruction. Laparoscopy use is still controversial in aSBO and indications not yet clearly defined. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of a laparoscopic approach in aSBO by using specific pre-operative criteria for appropriate patient selection.

Through morphological and molecular studies, the natural life cycle of Dollfus, 1960 (Cestoda: Taeniidae) from Argentine Patagonia is elucidated, involving subterranean rodents (Ctenomyidae) as intermediate hosts, and the Andean fox (Canidae) as definitive host. Metacestodes (mono- and polycephalic fimbriocerci) were found mainly in the peritoneal cavity of , and the strobilate adult in the intestine of . Correspondence between metacestodes and strobilate adults was based primarily on number, size and shape of rostellar hooks: 45-53 hooks alternated in two rows, small hooks 88-180 μm long and large hooks 230-280 μm long, with the characteristic shape described in the two main description of the species, both that of the metacestode (original description) and that of the strobilate adult (obtained experimentally).

Background: The relationship between preoperative bowel dysfunction and postoperative ileus has not been explored clinically. We hypothesized chronic partial obstruction, based on preoperative small bowel diameter, is associated with ileus after colon surgery.

Methods: This was a retrospective case-control study of patients undergoing right colectomy or ileocolic resection with primary anastomosis.
