Published: February 2024

Introduction: Performing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in duodenal switch (DS) patients is challenging given their surgically altered anatomy. There have been very few reported cases of trans enteric rendezvous ERCP to relieve biliary obstruction in DS patients. More specifically, there has not been any reported cases of this procedure being performed in loop DS, also known as SADI (single anastomosis duodeno-ileostomy) or SIPS (stomach intestinal pylorus sparing procedure).

Case Description: This case reports describes a 50-year-old male with prior loop DS who presented with gallstone pancreatitis. He underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy with positive intraoperative cholangiogram requiring the need for trans enteric rendezvous ERCP.

Discussion: Although never reported, trans enteric rendezvous ERCP is a feasible approach in relieving biliary obstruction in patients with loop DS anatomy.

Article Synopsis
  • The PACIFIC study examined the presence of Adherent-Invasive E. coli (AIEC) in Crohn's disease patients from France and Hong Kong, finding similar prevalence rates (24.5% in France vs. 30.0% in Hong Kong).
  • Antibiotic resistance was notably higher in AIEC strains from Hong Kong, particularly against multiple antibiotics, compared to those from France.
  • All AIEC strains from both regions showed sensitivity to an EcoActive™ phage cocktail, indicating potential for this treatment to be effective globally against AIEC in Crohn's disease.

Introduction: Cholecysto-gastric fistula is a rare, life-threatening complication of cholelithiasis that presents significant challenge to surgeons. Early diagnosis can be obtained and surgical intervention can be planned as elective case. Dilemma comes when patient presenting with acute acute abdominal symptoms necessitating immediate surgery, decision-making becomes more complex increasing morbidity and mortality.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study focuses on creating effective models to investigate Enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) infections, which cause severe gastrointestinal issues in both dogs and humans, including hemorrhagic diarrhea.
  • - The researchers developed monolayers from healthy dog intestinal tissues, studying their response to EHEC infection through several scientific techniques to understand the resulting cellular changes.
  • - Findings revealed significant impacts of EHEC on intestinal cells, making this new model a promising tool for better research into EHEC and related pathogens in both species.

Scientific knowledge about ruminal biohydrogenation (BH) has improved greatly since this metabolic process was empirically confirmed in 1951. For years, BH had mostly been perceived as a process to be avoided to increase the postruminal flow of UFA from the diet. Two milestones changed this perception and stimulated great interest in BH intermediates themselves: In 1987, the in vitro anticarcinogenic properties of CLA were described, and in 2000, the inhibition of milk fat synthesis by trans-10,cis-12 CLA was confirmed.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of dietary citronellol, thymol, and trans-cinnamaldehyde (CTC) essential oils blend on broilers' growth performance, immunity, intestinal microbial count, gut integrity, and resistance against Clostridium perfringens utilizing the necrotic enteritis (NE) challenge model.

Methods And Results: A total of 200 Ross 308 male broiler chicks received either a control diet or diet supplemented with three graded levels of CTC blend, including 300, 600, and 900 mg of CTC blend/kg diet and experimentally infected with C. perfringens strain at 23 days of age.
