    One of the most important events on gastroenterology certainly was the isolation of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) by Barry Marshall and Robin Warren in 1983 [1], occurrence which redirected our understanding of the pathophysiology of gastrointestinal diseases. The production of urease as well as the mobility of these bacteria promoted by flagella were identified as ...

    Aim: We evaluated food intake in telaprevir-based triple therapy (telaprevir, pegylated-interferon, and ribavirin) and its relation to Gastric Emptying (GE). Methods: 17 patients received telaprevir combined with pegylated interferon plus ribavirin. The GE study was carried out using the 13C-acetate breath test and GE time was expressed as the peak time of 13CO2 excr ...

    Author(s): Batovsky Marian*, Zamborsky Tomas, Radwan Khaled, Desatova Barbora and Kadleckova Barbora
    Background: Secondary intercurrent infections in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) represent a very important problem in daily clinical practice because of their significant contribution to quality of life and work ability. Beta-glucans are known to act as non-specific immunomodulators that exhibit an anti-inflammatory effect as evident in animal and huma ...

    Author(s): Jana G. Hashash, Ibrahim Hanouneh, Swaytha Ganesh, John Nasr and Robert E. Schoen*
    Background and Aim: CT colonography has promoted a new paradigm, that up-to 2 polyps ≤5mm can be left in-situ and followed. In contrast, endoscopists identify and remove all colorectal polyps, regardless of size. We evaluated whether and how endoscopists might implement a plan of ignoring small polyps in clinical practice. ...
