Haemochromatosis is a rare autosomal genetic disease that can cause multiple organ failure. In the past, this condition was not considered to affect pregnancy. The objectives of this study are to update the management of haemochromatosis in general as there are new treatments being investigated other than phlebotomy and to summarise the effects of the condition on pregnancy and vice versa. <i>Methods</i>. The initial search was in Ovid Medline® from 2002 to 2013. Review articles for haemochromatosis and case reports of its related complications in pregnancy were found. None of the reviews addressed pregnancy in detail. A second search in PubMed from 2014 to 2016 included studies regarding haemochromatosis and pregnancy and iron metabolism association with other metals and biomarkers, defining the mechanism of foetomaternal risks in maternal haemochromatosis. A third search at PubMed from 2017 to 2022 using key words haemochromatosis and pregnancy was done to look at the new data. <i>Results</i>. The results are qualitative indicating that even in the absence of abnormal iron parameters, haemochromatosis increases the risk of foetomaternal complications due to genetic predisposition, necessitating antenatal monitoring. Newer medications targeting the pathophysiology of the disease to eliminate it are being developed. The coabsorption of lead with iron causes increased risk of maternal preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, foetal congenital abnormalities, and growth problems. There is risk of neurodevelopmental delays, large for gestational age and childhood leukaemia in babies whose mothers and themselves have mutations for haemochromatosis. <i>Conclusion</i>. Previously, women with haemochromatosis were thought to have no higher risk of complications than the general population. However, there is evidence of foetomaternal complications. As a result, pregnancy with haemochromatosis necessitates additional monitoring for both mother and baby.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":12480,"journal":{"name":"GastroHep","volume":"2023 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2023/2674203","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87518214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) video capsule endoscopy (VCE) provides a possible alternative to conventional oesophago-gastro-duodenoscopy (OGD). In Ireland, the COVID-19 pandemic led to unprecedented change in endoscopy services, accelerating the need for UGI VCE to help reduce patient exposure but allow the continuation of endoscopy services. We report on using UGI VCE as an alternative to OGD throughout all phases of COVID-related endoscopy adjustments. <i>Aims/Background</i>. Prospective observational study to assess identification of relevant UGI anatomical landmarks on UGI VCE as defined in the British Society of Gastroenterology. <i>Method</i>. Inclusion criteria were: patients with dyspepsia under 40 years of age with no alarm symptoms; known cirrhosis for variceal screening; UGI bleeds with the Blatchford score ≤ 2. A protocol for preparation and a series of positional movements were adapted for the procedure. Landmarks and pathology detection were evaluated by two independent endoscopists. <i>Results</i>. 127 UGI VCE was performed from June 2020 to December 2021, of which 22 required further evaluation with OGD. The most common indications were dyspepsia and abdominal pain, 71% and 19%, respectively. With the use of the dual-facing camera, clear views of the OGJ in 100% of cases, cardia 100%, fundus 97%, greater curve 99%, lesser curve 98%, incisura angularis 95%, antrum 95%, pylorus 94%, D1/bulb 83%, and D2 82% were obtained. The main findings at UGI VCE were reflux oesophagitis and gastritis, with normal mucosa observed in 48% of cases. Findings suggesting a neoplastic lesion at the OG junction were detected in 1 case. <i>Conclusion</i>. Since June 2020, 81% (<i>N</i> = 103) of a selected cohort of patients referred for UGI endoscopy avoided invasive traditional endoscopy and were successfully managed by VCE, thus reducing endoscopy waiting lists. UGI VCE may serve as a clinical diagnostic tool, used alongside OGD in appropriate cases, to help improve patient services and care delivery.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":12480,"journal":{"name":"GastroHep","volume":"2022 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2022/4652730","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88907158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To investigate the long-term effect of direct-acting antivirals (DAA) on liver and splenic stiffness in patients with chronic hepatitis C. <i>Methods</i>. We conducted a single-centre prospective observational study including 129 chronic hepatitis C patients who achieved a sustained virological response (SVR) with DAA treatment.

There are reports of the use of herbal preparations in Egypt, China, India, and Samaria. Many patients consider “natural” herbal teas to be completely free of unwanted side effects. Many herbal products, however, have biological activities that can result in severe hepatic cell toxicity or interact with other herbal products or prescription medications. Their use is increased dramatically. The most common herbal teas and nonmineral natural products are used as self-medication, principally for health improvement. However, these products are potentially dangerous to some individuals. Monitoring for liver injury is an important aspect of drug and herbal safety assessment. When present, herbal-induced liver injury (HILI) may limit the use or result in the discontinuation of these agents. HILI can exhibit with a wide spectrum of clinical and laboratory manifestations, ranging from asymptomatic elevations in aminotransferases to acute liver failure. Most cases of HILI resolve within several weeks after herbal remedy discontinuation. However, some cases can persist as low-level aminotransferase elevations.

The Japanese guideline for the treatment of chronic constipation recommends that nonpharmacological treatment be applied.

We conducted a questionnaire survey over a period of four months to determine the prevalence of chronic constipation in nonexercise and exercise groups, as well as the effectiveness of exercise on chronic constipation.

The syndrome’s multifactorial pathophysiology makes it challenging to design effective therapies. The present paper reviews several therapeutic approaches to treating IBS, highlighting the challenges of losing response over time to therapies. Here, we present the relevance of chronobiology in biological systems focusing on the potential of chronotherapy for IBS. Artificial intelligence- (AI-) based approaches have been developed over the last few years to improve the diagnosis, therapeutic approaches, and monitoring of patients with various diseases. We discuss the use of first-generation AI platforms and their limitations in clinical practice and present the establishment of a second-generation system designed to overcome obstacles in managing these patients. The system identifies costly patients and those who do not respond to therapies and may benefit from algorithm-based therapies. We present a patient-tailored approach for improving the response to therapy in IBS using an AI-based algorithm. This system provides a tool for a patient-tailored monitoring system. The second-generation AI system can provide a comprehensive tool for improving the diagnosis and therapy and monitoring of patients with IBS.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":12480,"journal":{"name":"GastroHep","volume":"2022 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2022/1192547","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82431711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
