The enzyme histochemistry and ultra-structural analysis of the lesion was also computed in the late 20th century (1966) [4], confirming that it originated from the primitive basal cells of the epidermis which differentiate towards the hair matrix.","PeriodicalId":72074,"journal":{"name":"Advanced research in gastroenterology & hepatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48778036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four different groups of rats were used for this study. In details Group-I was nornal rat; Group-II was toxic Cd (2 mg/kg/day) has given to rats subcutaneously for 7 days. Group-III was pre-treated with Thymoquinone and followed by Cd (2 mg/kg/day) for 7 days. Group-IV was given Thymoquinone (20 mg/kg/day) as a positive control for 7 days. At the end of experiment blood was taken for biochemical study (AST, ALT, ALP and Total Bilirubin) and thereafter animal was killed, and liver was dissected out to analyze oxidative stress (LPO, and GSH). The biochemical study indicated that the level of enzymes (AST, ALT, ALP and Total Bilirubin) was significantly (P≤0.01) elevated in the serum of Group-II and TBARS contents were also increased significantly in Group-II while the concentration of glutathione was significantly reduced in Cd induced (Group-II) as compared to normal control. When the rat was treated with Thymoquinone, TBARS content reduced significantly in Group-III and biochemical enzyme were also restored in Group-III while the glutathione (GSH) content increased as compared to Group-II. When alone Thymoquinone was given in Group-IV there was no any kind of biochemical enzyme elevation were found or neither no significant oxidative stress observed. In this way study indicated that Thymoquinone is effective for the treatment of liver diseases against heavy metal.","PeriodicalId":72074,"journal":{"name":"Advanced research in gastroenterology & hepatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49017204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) enhances our ability to optimize dosing regimens. Studies have shown that trough levels<4.9ug/ mL are associated with loss of response to adalimumab (ADA). An increased body weight may change the pharmacokinetics of adalimumab in IBD. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of body mass index (BMI) on adalimumab drug levels in IBD patients, as well as its potential clinical implications. Methods: A database was compiled via retrospective chart review of 507 IBD patients seen at our Digestive Disease Center (DDC) between July 2013 and March 2016. Variables in the database include patient’s weight, medications, serum adalimumab levels, dates of medication administration, endoscopic findings, fecal calprotectin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C-reactive protein. Results: Using ANOVA to compare the two groups, there was a significant association with lower ADA levels in patient with BMI >30kg/ m2 when compared to those with BMI <30kg/m2 (p = 0.009). Average adalimumab levels in these two groups were 11.8ug/mL and 8.8ug/mL, respectively. Within these groups, there was no statistically significant difference in severity of endoscopic findings. Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in serum inflammatory markers between groups. Conclusion: In a cohort of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, despite a downward trend in serum adalimumab levels as weight increased, there did not seem to be any apparent clinical significance to these findings. They neither correlated to severity of endoscopic findings, or to elevations in serum inflammatory markers. 57% of the total sample size was either overweight or obese, which we feel accurately reflects the phenotypic breakdown of the overall IBD population, as well as that of the general population. More studies are needed to follow the long-term progression of these lower adalimumab levels to determine if this leads to increased antidrug antibody formation and/or loss of response over time.","PeriodicalId":72074,"journal":{"name":"Advanced research in gastroenterology & hepatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44935426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The technique of fistulectomy, which excises rather than incises the fistula track, has been criticised on the basis of the greater tissue loss leading to delayed healing. However, fistulectomy by a core-out technique rather than excision of the track have several advocates.
