A Retículo Peritonite Traumática está diretamente ligada à ingestão de objetos metálicos perfuro cortantes, como pregos e pedaços de arame, que podem penetrar ou perfurar a parede do retículo. Embora a ocorrência de corpos estranhos de alumínio seja rara, outros elementos, como fios de pneus us...

Non-invasive biomagnetic assessment of gastrointestinal motility in a loperamide-induced constipation model

Constipation is a disorder of the gastrointestinal (GI) and some of the main etiological mechanisms are directly related to changes in GI physiology. The capacity to carry out paired assessments and measure GI parameters under the influence of constipation is a relevant point in selecting a suitable meth...

Efectos en la motilidad de fármacos para obesidad: impacto en la práctica clínica y endoscópica

Gastroenterol. latinoam; 35 (2), 2024
Obesity is a very common pathology worldwide. Among the management alternatives are glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogues, a hormone secreted mainly by the intestine. Apart from its effects as an incretin, effects on gastrointestinal motility have been described, which seem to be fundamental for its ...

Mapeo de superficie corporal gástrica (Alimetria®): una nueva forma de estudiar la función gastroduodenal

Gastroenterol. latinoam; 35 (2), 2024
Upper gastrointestinal symptoms affect 10% of the population, leading to significant costs and negatively impacting quality of life. Diagnosing disorders such as functional dyspepsia and gastroparesis is challenging due to overlapping symptoms. Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) has reproducibility issu...

Does L-carnitine prevent cadmium-induced damage in gastrointestinal contractility and histological changes in prepubertal rat

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: Cadmium (Cd) is the industrial and environmental toxic heavy metal which is found in air, water and soil. Cd, adversely affects many organs in humans such as kidney, intestine, liver, testis and lungs. L-carnitine (LC) is an important agent that plays essential role in energy metabolism. In our ...

The effects of L-carnitine on gastrointestinal contractility and histological changes in rat intestinal ischemia-reperfusion Injury

Int. j. morphol; 40 (5), 2022
SUMMARY: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) of the small intestine causes serious abdominal pathologies including tissue dysfunction and organ failure. L-carnitine (L-C), a powerful antioxidant, may help lessen the severity of these pathological effects since it plays a key role in energy metabolism. In this wor...

Efeitos da nutrição parenteral ou enteral, associadas ou não à glutamina, sobre a motilidade gastrintestinal em equinos submetidos à inanição e realimentação

Rev. bras. ciênc. vet; 28 (2), 2021
Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar os efeitos da nutrição parenteral total ou enteral, associadas ou não à glutamina, sobre a motilidade gastrintestinal em equinos submetidos à inanição e realimentação. Foram utilizados 16 equinos adultos hígidos, sem raça definida, de ambos os sexos, quatr...

Paternal obesity and its transgenerational effects on gastrointestinal function in male rat offspring

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (9), 2021
The interplay between obesity and gastrointestinal (GI) motility is contradictory, and the transgenerational influence on this parameter is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the GI function in a model of paternal obesity and two subsequent generations of their male offspring. Newborn male rats were treated w...
