6. Irritable bowel syndrome. Pathophysiological and clinical aspects
Sammanfattning : Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is characterized by abdominal pain and/or discomfort related to abnormal bowel habits. Gastrointestinal (GI) motility disturbances, visceral hypersensitivity and psychological factors are involved in the pathophysiology of IBS. LÄS MER
7. Genetic and epidemiological studies of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
Sammanfattning : Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (IHPS) is a condition of early infancy characterized by thickening of the pyloric muscle resulting in obstruction of gastric outflow. It affects 1-3/1000 live births and is one of the most common causes of gastrointestinal obstruction in infants. LÄS MER
8. Upper gastrointestinal motility, gut hormones and food intake : a study in normal weight and obese humans
Sammanfattning : The regulation of food intake in man is complex and poorly understood. The main aim of the present study was to investigate how a rapid stimulation of the distal small bowel with nutrients influences upper gastrointestinal motility, some gut peptides and food intake in man. LÄS MER
9. Environmental influence on alpha-helical peptides
Sammanfattning : Most proteins at physiological conditions fold into a native functional three-dimensional conformation. The stability of the Native state is a balance between different interactions within the protein and with the solvent. LÄS MER
10. Ghrelin action on gastrointestinal functions and appetite in rat and man
Sammanfattning : To study the effect of ghrelin on the contractility of smooth muscle strips in vitro as well as the effects on fasting small bowel motility and acid secretion in vivo in rats and gastric emptying in rats and humans. To study the effect of peripherally administered ghrelin on plasma levels of glucose, insulin, glucagon, orexin A (OXA), somatostatin and gastrin in rats and ghrelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagonlike peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY) and motilin in humans.
