Causes for increased gastric and duodenal morbidity were analyzed in 435 patients. Chelibacteriosis was shown to be one of the key factors of development and recurrence of chronic duodenitis which which, in its turn, leads to physical disability retirement of flying personnel. The role of determining the immune status in dynamics in predicting recurrence, and effectiveness of therapy was confirmed. Results of the investigation indicate that "triple therapy" (Tribemol, Doxacyclin, Trichopol) of chronic duodenitis on the background of chelibacteria is most effective as it reduces length of treatment, decreases the recurrence rate and improves the clinical and certification-important indices in flying personnel.

This case report presents a rare occurrence of Sarcina ventriculi in a 15-year-old male patient with a clinical history of renal failure due to chronic rejection status post kidney transplantation, with persistent symptoms of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Despite exhibiting normal gastrointestinal mucosa upon endoscopy, biopsy analysis revealed chronic gastritis accompanied by the presence of Sarcina ventriculi in a tetrad arrangement across the stomach, duodenum, and distal esophagus. Interestingly, immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining targeting the Helicobacter pylori organism (H.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is marked by chronic hyperglycemia, gradually worsening β-cell failure, and insulin resistance. Glucotoxicity and oxidative stress cause β-cell failure by increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, impairing insulin secretion, and disrupting transcription factors such as pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX-1) and musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene family A (MafA). Cluster determinant 36 (CD36), an essential glycoprotein responsible for fatty acid uptake, exacerbates oxidative stress and induces the apoptosis of β-cells under hyperglycemic conditions through pathways involving ceramide, thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), and Rac1-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX)-mediated redoxosome formation.

Background: Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a form of pancreatitis that affects the pancreaticoduodenal groove area, which lies between the head of the pancreas, the second part of the duodenum and the distal bile duct, presenting as abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. In this study, we present the clinical and radiological characteristics of individuals diagnosed with groove pancreatitis at our center and discuss the use of a conservative treatment approach in managing GP.

Methods: The data of patients with groove pancreatitis treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2021 was analyzed.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a pervasive pathobiont, colonizes the gastric mucosa and plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of several gastroduodenal pathologies ranging from chronic gastritis to more severe disorders including peptic ulcer disease, gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and gastric adenocarcinoma. In symptomatic patients, endoscopy and histological examination of the gastric mucosa are the preferred tests for diagnosing H.

Introduction And Importance: Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome, or aorto-mesenteric clamp syndrome, is a rare condition where the third portion of the duodenum is compressed between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. This syndrome often affects adolescents and young adults, with predisposing factors including significant weight loss, anatomical variations, and spinal deformities. Early diagnosis and intervention are critical for managing symptoms and preventing complications.
