SummaryBackground Octreotide LAR is an established treatment for malignant
carcinoid syndrome. However, studies with large number of patients and long
follow‐up are lacking.Aim To present long‐terms results with octreotide LAR,
assessing duration of clinical and objective response and treatment tolerance,
in a large, homogeneous cohort of patients with malignant carcinoid
syndrome.Methods A tot... hiện toàn bộ
Sandostatin LAR (long‐acting octreotide acetate) for malignant carcinoid syndrome: a 3‐year experienceAlimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics - Tập 17 Số 3 - Trang 437-444 - 2003

SummaryBackground : Somatostatin analogues are the best therapy for controlling
the symptoms of malignant carcinoid syndrome. Octreotide acetate given as
subcutaneous injection up to three times daily, intramuscular Lanreotide
injection given once per 1–2 weeks and monthly intramuscular Sandostatin LAR
have demonstrated similar efficacy in short‐term studies.Aim : To assess the
long‐term effect of... hiện toàn bộ

SummaryBackgroundA low fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides,
monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP) diet can ameliorate symptoms in adult
irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) within 48 h.AimTo determine the efficacy of a low
FODMAP diet in childhood IBS and whether gut microbial composition and/or
metabolic capacity are associated with its efficacy.MethodsIn a double‐blind,
crossover trial, childre... hiện toàn bộ
Short‐chain fatty acid topical treatment in distal ulcerative colitisAlimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics - Tập 9 Số 3 - Trang 309-313 - 1995

SUMMARY Background: Some evidence indicates that short‐chain fatty acid (SCFA)
enemas are effective in the treatment of distal ulcerative colitis. Methods: In
a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study, we tested the efficacy of
a 6‐week course of topical SCFA (100 mL, twice daily enemas of sodium acetate 80
mmol/L, sodium propionate 30 mmol/L and sodium butyrate 40 mmol/L) in 40

Review article: chronic viral infection in the anti‐tumour necrosis factor therapy era in inflammatory bowel diseaseAlimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics - Tập 31 Số 1 - Trang 20-34 - 2010
Matthew Shale, Cynthia H. Seow, Carla S. Coffin, Gilaad G. Kaplan, Remo Panaccione, Subrata Ghosh
SummaryBackground Anti‐Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy is now well
established in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and the risk of
opportunistic infection is recognized. However, specific considerations
regarding screening, detection, prevention and treatment of chronic viral
infections in the context of anti‐TNF therapy in inflammatory bowel disease are
not widely adopted in prac... hiện toàn bộ
Ambulatory gastric pH monitoring: proper probe placement and normal valuesAlimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics - Tập 15 Số 8 - Trang 1155-1162 - 2001
William K. Fackler, Michael F. Vaezi, Joel E. Richter
Background: Gastric acid production may persist while patients are treated with
proton pump inhibitors. Twenty‐four‐hour intragastric pH monitoring is being
used to identify gastric acid in the stomach while on medical therapy.Aim: To
identify the optimal region of the stomach to demonstrate the presence of
gastric acid.Method: Probe locations confirmed with fluoroscopy after placement
and prior t... hiện toàn bộ
Comparison of gastric emptying of a nondigestible capsule to a radio‐labelled meal in healthy and gastroparetic subjectsAlimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics - Tập 27 Số 2 - Trang 186-196 - 2008

SummaryBackground Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) using a radio‐labelled
meal is used to measure gastric emptying. A nondigestible capsule, SmartPill,
records luminal pH, temperature, and pressure during gastrointestinal transit
providing a measure of gastric emptying time (GET).Aims To compare gastric
emptying time and GES by assessing their correlation, and to compare GET and GES
for discr... hiện toàn bộ
