Published: November 2024

Hemorrhoidal disease is one of most common pathologies seen by colorectal and general surgeons. Although hemorrhoids themselves are a normal anatomic occurrence, development of symptomatic disease, usually due to bleeding, prolapse, or thrombosis, can cause significant patient distress. Acute presentation related to significant thrombosis or bleeding is referred to as acute hemorrhoidal crisis. Management of this pathology varies from nonoperative intervention for symptom control to definitive incisional or excisional hemorrhoidectomy. Here we will explore the approach to evaluating and treating acute hemorrhoidal crises.

However, the clinical application of SA is limited by strong irritation, and cannot be used on the damaged skin and mucous membrane. This study aimed to investigate whether arginine hydrochloride (Arg·HCl) could reduce the rectal mucosal irritation of SA through the formation of a gel.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic relapsing-remitting and potentially progressive form of inflammatory bowel disease in which there is extensive inflammation and mucosal damage in the colon and rectum as a result of an abnormal immune response. MV130 is a mucosal-trained immunity-based vaccine used to prevent respiratory tract infections in various clinical settings. Additionally, MV130 may induce innate immune cells that acquire anti-inflammatory properties and promote tolerance, which could have important implications for chronic inflammatory diseases such as ulcerative colitis.
