21. Aspects on the functional characteristics of the Roux-limb after Gastric Bypass surgery
Sammanfattning : Background: Bariatric surgery, and particularly the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGBP) procedure, has highlighted the central role of the gastrointestinal tract in the regulation of body weight and metabolism. The Roux-limb is the part of the small intestine that has become the food recipient after RYGBP and has generally been very little studied. LÄS MER

The most effective treatment for obesity and its comorbidities is bariatric surgery, restoring the physical component of quality of life. LÄS MER
24. Gastroesephageal reflux and related motility disorders after esophageal atresia : a clinical study
Sammanfattning : The most common congenital malformation of the esophagus is esophageal atresia (EA) with or without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). Successful repair of EA does not ensure normal esophageal function. Disturbed esophageal motility and gastroesophageal reflux (GER) are often detected after repair of EA. LÄS MER
25. Effect of endogenous and exogenous ghrelin on gastrointestinal function in rat and human
Sammanfattning : Background: Several peptides derived from the gastrointestinal tract (GI) have been shown to have profound effects on GI motility, food intake and metabolism. Two such peptides, derived from the same prohormone, are the peptides ghrelin and obestatin, discovered in 1999 and 2005, respectively. LÄS MER
