1. 1. Gastrointestinal Permeability and Motility in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

   Författare :Anas Kh. Al-Saffar; Per Hellström; Dominic-Luc Webb; Åsa Keita; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Gastrointestinal motility; intestinal permeability; Mucosal; Ghrelin; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Sammanfattning : Synchronized motility, permeability and secretory (hormones and enzymes) events are integral to normal physiology. Smooth muscle syncytium operates with enteric nervous system (ENS) and endocrine signalling to accommodate, mix and control passage of ingested materials. LÄS MER

3. 2. Implementation of gut-directed hypnotherapy for irritable bowel syndrome in clinical practice

   Författare :Perjohan Lindfors; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IBS; Gut-directed Hypnotherapy; Patient satisfaction; GI motility;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is characterized by recurrent abdominal pain or discomfort, related to abnormal bowel habits. This benign and common condition is in severe cases associated with bothersome GI symptoms, decreased quality of life and psychological comorbidity. LÄS MER

4. 3. The role of incretin peptides and ghrelin in upper gut motility and metabolic control

   Författare :Therese Edholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Metabolic control is essential for the individual and is strictly regulated via a wide range of factors. One important mechanism in maintaining an adequate blood sugar level is the regulation of insulin release and gastric emptying rate by gastrointestinal (GI) hormones. LÄS MER

5. 4. Peripheral and central factors in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome

   Författare :Iris Posserud; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :irritable bowel syndrome IBS ; visceral perception; rectal perception; visceral hypersensitivity; gastrointestinal symptoms; hypervigilance; selective attention; stress; small intestinal bacterial overgrowth; rectal barostat; small bowel motility; gastrointestinal dysmotility;

   Sammanfattning : Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorder characterized by abdominal pain and/or discomfort together with abnormal bowel habits. The pathophysiology is complex and incompletely understood. LÄS MER

7. 5. Liver cirrhosis-epidemiological and Clinical Aspects

   Författare :Steingerður Anna Gunnarsdóttir; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Liver cirrhosis; etiology; alcoholic liver disease; mortality; portal hypertension; esophageal varices; variceal bleeding; hepatitis C; hepatocellular cancer; malignancies; small intestinal motility; small intestinal bacterial overgrowth;

   Sammanfattning : Liver cirrhosis is the end-stage of many different chronic liver diseases. Limited data exists on the epidemiology, natural history and complications of liver cirrhosis such as esophageal varices and malignancies in the Nordic countries after the discovery of hepatitis C (HCV).
