Prenatal sonographic features of spondylocostal dysostosis and diaphragmatic hernia in the first trimester. (1/60)
Spondylocostal dysostosis is a congenital disorder characterized by multiple malformations of the vertebrae and ribs. We describe the sonographic features of an affected fetus at 12 and 14 weeks of gestation. The fetus had thoracic scoliosis, multiple vertebral and rib malformations and a grossly dilated stomach that had herniated into the chest through a left-sided diaphragmatic hernia. The stomach spanned the whole length of the fetal trunk. (+info)Pseudoaffective cardioautonomic responses to gastric distension in rats. (2/60)
We examined the heart rate response to gastric distension, the involvement of vagal and sympathetic sensory afferents, adrenergic and cholinergic neural pathways, and the effects of capsaicin on this response in anesthetized rats. Gastric distension volume dependently decreased heart rate by 24.5% (resting rate = 219.87 +/- 14.06 beats/min, mean rate during gastric distension with 15 ml = 165.97 +/- 17.36 beats/min, P < 0.05). The bradycardic response was significantly decreased after removal of the celiac plexus (9.71 +/- 1.77 vs. 38.03 +/- 7.06% in controls, P < 0.05) or after bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy (6.38 +/- 2.65%, P = 0.05). The response to gastric distension was largely prevented by systemic capsaicin (29.92 +/- 4.93% in controls, 2.58 +/- 4.19% after systemic capsaicin, P < 0.05) and decreased by perivagal capsaicin (18.72 +/- 4.75%, P < 0.05). Atropine almost completely prevented the cardiac response to distension, while propranolol and bretylium partially blocked it, implying the response is primarily mediated by cholinergic efferents but also involves adrenergic pathways. We conclude that unmyelinated, capsaicin-sensitive vagal afferents are essential to the pseudoaffective cardioautonomic response to a noxious gastric stimulus. (+info)Modulation by endogenous nitric oxide of acid secretion induced by gastric distention in rats: enhancement by nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. (3/60)
The mechanism underlying acid hypersecretion induced by gastric distention was investigated in rats, especially in relation to endogenous nitric oxide (NO). Under urethane anesthesia, rat stomach was distended by instillation of saline (1-10 ml) through the acute fistula that was provided through a pylorus. Gastric samples were collected every 1 h, and the acid secretion was measured by titration with 100 mM NaOH. Gastric acid secretion was increased by distention, and the degree of stimulation was dependent on the volume of saline instillation; a maximal response occurred with 6-ml instillation, which maintained the intraluminal pressure of about 20 cm H(2)O. The increased acid secretory response induced by distention was completely blocked by omeprazole and significantly mitigated by vagotomy, sensory deafferentation, atropine, or famotidine but markedly enhanced by the NO synthase inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). On the other hand, the enhanced acid response in the presence of L-NAME occurred in an L-arginine-sensitive manner and was almost totally abolished by vagotomy and sensory deafferentation as well as by atropine. Gastric distention increased the release of NO metabolites and histamine into the gastric lumen. The NO metabolite release in the distended stomach was significantly decreased by vagotomy or L-NAME, whereas the histamine output was decreased by vagotomy but increased by L-NAME in an L-arginine-sensitive manner, respectively. These results suggest that 1) gastric distention increases acid secretion, initially through the perception by sensory neurons of the mechanical stimulation and mainly through the efferent vagocholinergic pathway, with the process being modified by endogenous NO, and 2) this molecule, released in a vagal-dependent manner, exerts a negative influence on acid secretion, at least in part by suppressing histamine release from the histamine-containing cells. (+info)TNF-alpha activates solitary nucleus neurons responsive to gastric distension. (4/60)
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is liberated as part of the immune response to antigenic challenge, carcinogenesis, and radiation therapy. Previous studies have implicated elevated circulating levels of this cytokine in the gastric hypomotility associated with these disease states. Our earlier studies suggest that a site of action of TNF-alpha may be within the medullary dorsal vagal complex. In this study, we describe the role of TNF-alpha as a neuromodulator affecting neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract that are involved in vago-vagal reflex control of gastric motility. The results presented herein suggest that TNF-alpha may induce a persistent gastric stasis by functioning as a hormone that modulates intrinsic vago-vagal reflex pathways during illness. (+info)Modulation of gastric distension-induced sensations by small intestinal receptors. (5/60)
Duodenal lipid exacerbates gastrointestinal sensations during gastric distension. Using luminal application of the local anesthetic benzocaine, we investigated the role of intestinal receptors in the induction of these sensations. Nine healthy subjects were studied on five occasions, during which isotonic saline or 20% lipid (2 kcal/min), combined with (duodenal or jejunal) 0.75% benzocaine or vehicle at 2.5 ml/min, was infused intraduodenally before and during gastric distension. Intragastric pressures and volumes, gastrointestinal sensations, and plasma CCK levels were determined. Duodenal lipid combined with vehicle increased gastric volume (in ml: saline, -10 +/- 18; lipid/vehicle, 237 +/- 30) and plasma CCK [mean levels (pmol/l): saline, 2.0 +/- 0. 2; lipid/vehicle, 8.0 +/- 1.6] and, during distensions, induced nausea (scores: saline, 3 +/- 2: lipid/vehicle, 58 +/- 19) and decreased pressures at which fullness and discomfort occurred. Duodenal but not jejunal benzocaine attenuated the effect of lipid on gastric volume, plasma CCK, and nausea during distension (135 +/- 38 and 216 +/- 40 ml, 4.6 +/- 0.6 pmol/l and not assessed, and 37 +/- 12 and 64 +/- 21 for lipid + duodenal benzocaine and lipid + jejunal benzocaine, respectively) and on pressures for sensations. In conclusion, intestinal receptors modulate gastrointestinal sensations associated with duodenal lipid and gastric distension. There is also the potential for local neural mechanisms to regulate CCK release and thereby reduce afferent activation indirectly. (+info)Acute gastric dilatation accompanied by diabetes mellitus. (6/60)
A 72-year-old man with diabetic triopathy was hospitalized with methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus pneumonia. Six hours after the admission, his abdomen was fully expanded. An abdominal X-ray showed gastric dilatation. After insertion of a gastric tube to extract gastric air, his abdomen was flat and gastric dilatation improved. A positive Schellong test and decreased coefficient of RR interval in electrocardiogram variation indicated autonomic neuropathy, which may explain the reason for gastric hypomotility. Acute gastric dilatation in this patient may have occurred due to gastric hypomotility as a result of diabetic autonomic neuropathy in addition to gastric motility inhibition resulting from gastric autonomic nerve stimulation by bacterial toxin. (+info)Gastric rupture caused by acute gastric distention in non-neonatal children: clinical analysis of 3 cases. (7/60)
OBJECTIVE: To study gastric rupture, a progressive, rapid and high mortality condition, caused by acute gastric distention (GRAGD) and its appropriate diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: The etiology, pathology, clinical manifestations and experiences in 3 children with GRAGD were reviewed. RESULTS: Case 1: After diagnosing GRAGD and stabilizing her shock with massive fluid replacement, gastrostomy was performed. Her postoperative course was uneventful because of fasting, suction, fluid infusion, correction of acidosis and supporting nutrition. Case 2: After diagnosing gastric distention which subsided with conservative therapy for 9 days, she suddenly had gastric rupture when she had not eaten for 6 days. She died of shock and had no chance for surgery. Case 3: The patient had sudden abdominal pain, distention and vomiting with severe shock for 4 days. Emergency surgery found gastric rupture and the method was the same as Case 1. The patient survived but has brain impairment. Case 1 and 3 showed multifocal transmural necrosis. CONCLUSIONS: Symptoms like overeating, bulimia, changes in kind of food, X-ray showing large distended stomach and massive pneumoperitoneum were seen after gastric rupture and can help to diagnose this condition. Clinical course of gastric distention with toxic shock progresses rapidly, however subsequent gastric rupture exacerbates the shock and makes the treatment difficult treatment. It is extremely important that a laparotomy be performed at once after stabilizing shock with massive fluid replacement. Postoperative nutritional support and fluid replacement will increase survival. It is very important that when gastric distention disappears after conservative therapy, the doctor should assess carefully whether the gastric wall recovery is under way by using effective methods of examination. (+info)Reliability of epigastric auscultation to detect gastric insufflation. (8/60)
BACKGROUND: We studied the reliability of epigastric auscultation to detect gastric insufflation in 30 anaesthetized, paralysed intubated patients. METHODS: A 16FG gastric tube was positioned with the tip in the mid-oesophagus with the proximal end attached to an injection port with a one-way valve. Four observers participated in the study. Observers were paired and each pair studied 15 patients. Each patient underwent four test sequences in random order, two by each observer. Each test sequence comprised one observer injecting different volumes of air (0.25 ml, 0.5 ml, 1 ml, 2 ml, 3 ml, 4 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml, 15 ml and 0 ml as a control) in random order whilst the second blinded observer listened with a stethoscope over the epigastrium. Each randomized volume was injected rapidly at 5 s intervals for 1 min. The number of injections required to detect air entering the stomach was recorded. The stomach was deflated between each test sequence. RESULTS: To detect air entering the stomach with 95% confidence, 11 injections were required for 0.25 ml; 7 for 0.5 ml; 3 for 1 ml; 2 for 2 ml and 3 ml, and I for > or =4 ml. The mean (range) inter- and intraobserver reliability was 0.73 (0.71-0.75) and 0.76 (0.76-0.89), respectively. The incidence of false positives was 21% (25/120) and the incidence of false negatives was 10% (103/1080), making the specificity and sensitivity 79% and 91%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that epigastric auscultation can detect gastric insufflation of 0.25 ml air after 11 breaths and > or = 4 ml air after one breath with 95% confidence. Inter- and intraobserver reliability is moderate to excellent. Epigastric auscultation should be repeated to reduce the risk of false positives. (+info)Gastric dilatation is a medical condition characterized by an abnormal enlargement or distension of the stomach, which may be caused by excessive accumulation of food, gastric fluid, or other substances.
Gastric dilatation, also known as stomach dilation or distention, refers to the abnormal enlargement or expansion of the stomach. This condition often occurs when the stomach fills with gas, food, or fluids and is unable to empty properly. Gastric dilatation can be caused by various factors such as overeating, swallowing excessive air, gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying), intestinal obstruction, or certain medical conditions like hiatal hernia or pregnancy.
In severe cases, gastric dilatation may lead to gastric volvulus, where the stomach twists on itself, cutting off its blood supply and leading to ischemia and necrosis of the stomach tissue. This is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. Symptoms of gastric dilatation include abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting, loss of appetite, and difficulty breathing.
A stomach rupture, also known as gastrointestinal perforation, is a serious medical condition characterized by a hole or tear in the lining of the stomach wall, which can lead to leakage of stomach contents into the abdominal cavity, causing inflammation, infection, and potentially fatal complications if not promptly treated.
A stomach rupture, also known as gastrointestinal perforation, is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when there is a hole or tear in the lining of the stomach. This can allow the contents of the stomach to leak into the abdominal cavity, causing inflammation and infection (peritonitis).
Stomach rupture can be caused by several factors, including trauma, severe gastritis or ulcers, tumors, or certain medical procedures. Symptoms may include sudden and severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, and decreased bowel sounds. If left untreated, stomach rupture can lead to sepsis, organ failure, and even death. Treatment typically involves surgery to repair the perforation and antibiotics to treat any resulting infection.
Gastropexy is a surgical procedure that permanently fixes the stomach wall to the abdominal wall, typically performed to prevent gastric volvulus or to treat chronic gastric dilatation-volvulus syndrome in animals.
Gastropexy is a surgical procedure in which the stomach is attached to another organ, usually the abdominal wall. This procedure is often performed as a preventative measure for gastric volvulus, a condition where the stomach twists on itself and cuts off its own blood supply. It is also done in animals, particularly dogs, to prevent gastric dilation volvulus (GDV), also known as bloat, which is a life-threatening emergency. In humans, gastropexy is sometimes performed as part of treatment for morbid obesity.
Intubation, gastrointestinal, refers to the insertion of a flexible plastic tube through the nose or mouth into the stomach or small intestine to provide a means of nutritional support or administration of medications in patients who are unable to maintain an adequate airway or have impaired gastrointestinal function.
I believe there might be a slight confusion in your question as intubation is a procedure typically related to the respiratory system rather than the gastrointestinal system.
Intubation generally refers to the process of inserting a tube into a specific part of the body. In the context of medical terminology, intubation usually means the placement of a flexible plastic tube through the mouth or nose and into the trachea (windpipe). This is done to secure and maintain an open airway during surgery or in emergency situations when a person cannot breathe on their own.
However, if you're referring to a procedure that involves the gastrointestinal tract, it might be "gastric lavage" or "nasogastric intubation."
Gastric lavage is a medical procedure where a tube is inserted through the mouth or nose, down the esophagus, and into the stomach to wash out its contents. This can help remove harmful substances from the stomach in case of poisoning.
Nasogastric intubation refers to the insertion of a thin, flexible tube through the nostril, down the back of the throat, and into the stomach. The tube can be used for various purposes, such as draining the stomach of fluids and air or administering nutrients and medications directly into the stomach.
I hope this clarifies any confusion. If you have further questions, please let me know!
An acute disease is a condition with a short and rapid course of progression, typically lasting days to weeks, often characterized by distinct onset, severe symptoms, and a limited duration before recovery, death, or transitioning to a chronic state.
An acute disease is a medical condition that has a rapid onset, develops quickly, and tends to be short in duration. Acute diseases can range from minor illnesses such as a common cold or flu, to more severe conditions such as pneumonia, meningitis, or a heart attack. These types of diseases often have clear symptoms that are easy to identify, and they may require immediate medical attention or treatment.
Acute diseases are typically caused by an external agent or factor, such as a bacterial or viral infection, a toxin, or an injury. They can also be the result of a sudden worsening of an existing chronic condition. In general, acute diseases are distinct from chronic diseases, which are long-term medical conditions that develop slowly over time and may require ongoing management and treatment.
Examples of acute diseases include:
* Acute bronchitis: a sudden inflammation of the airways in the lungs, often caused by a viral infection.
* Appendicitis: an inflammation of the appendix that can cause severe pain and requires surgical removal.
* Gastroenteritis: an inflammation of the stomach and intestines, often caused by a viral or bacterial infection.
* Migraine headaches: intense headaches that can last for hours or days, and are often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.
* Myocardial infarction (heart attack): a sudden blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle, often caused by a buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries.
* Pneumonia: an infection of the lungs that can cause coughing, chest pain, and difficulty breathing.
* Sinusitis: an inflammation of the sinuses, often caused by a viral or bacterial infection.
It's important to note that while some acute diseases may resolve on their own with rest and supportive care, others may require medical intervention or treatment to prevent complications and promote recovery. If you are experiencing symptoms of an acute disease, it is always best to seek medical attention to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment.

- To determine whether avian bornaviruses (ABVs) were a factor in proventricular dilatation disease (PDD), we used immunohistochemistry, reverse transcription-PCR, and nucleotide sequence analysis to examine paraffin wax-embedded or frozen tissue samples of 31 psittacine birds with this disease. (cdc.gov)
- Proventricular dilatation disease (PDD), a serious and frequent disease of predominantly psittacine birds, was reported for the first time in the late 1970s and early 1980s in the United States, in Germany, and in Switzerland ( 1 , 2 ). (cdc.gov)
Postoperative2
- A study by Shimada et al, however, indicated that in obese adults with cardiovascular disease, the rate of emergency department visits or unplanned hospitalizations (ie, acute care use) is lower in those who undergo gastric bypass than in patients treated with gastric banding, over the first 2 postoperative years. (medscape.com)
- Postoperative gastric dilatation. (nih.gov)
Oesophageal1
- This includes band slippage, band erosion, oesophageal dilatation. (indiasurgerytour.com)
Banding2
- Gastric banding is a restrictive type of surgery in which a silicone band is placed around the top portion of the stomach. (medscape.com)
- Before gastric banding is discussed, some background information will be reviewed. (medscape.com)
Hepatic1
- This study examined gastric secretory, hormonal and mucosal changes in individuals with portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) due to schistosomal hepatic fibrosis (SHF) before and after sclerotherapy. (who.int)
Procedure1
- This is a gastric drainage procedure done by breaching the pylorus to drain stomach outflow into the duodenum. (petmoo.com)
Syndrome2
- Computed tomography suggested severe gastric dilatation, so abdominal compartment syndrome was suspected and an emergent laparotomy was supposed to be conducted. (ekja.org)
- Though infrequent, errant eating behavior results in acute gastric distension (AGD), which can induce abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) [ 3 ]. (ekja.org)
Surgery1
- 5. Safe management of anastomotic leakage after gastric cancer surgery with enteral nutrition via a nasointestinal tube. (nih.gov)
Gastrectomy2
Severe1
- We experienced the intra-operative death of the young female patient with severe gastric distension, who had suffered from an eating disorder. (ekja.org)
Acute1
- Therefore, eating disorders may have a higher incidence of fatal outcomes than expected, because of episodes of acute gastric dilatation followed by ACS. (ekja.org)
Serum1
- Free acidity, total acidity, basal acid output, serum pepsinogen I, gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) and gastrin were significantly lower in group II, whereas serum gastrin and somatostatin staining were significantly higher. (who.int)
Lesions2
- Focal and multifocal erosive lesions were observed in the gastric mucosa of the glandular stomach in the 500 mg/kg groups of male and female rats. (nih.gov)
- Gastric mucosal lesions are common in individuals with portal hypertension and can be an important cause of blood loss, which is generally slow and insidious but can be massive and occasionally fatal [3]. (who.int)
Refers1
- The term "dilatation" refers to a condition in which the stomach becomes engorged with air and froth, swelling to many times its normal size. (dvsc.com)
Accumulation1
- In pars distalis of NHE2-null mice, prominent cyst-like dilatations of folliculo-stellate (FS) cell canaliculi developed with age, and there were increased FS cell area, accumulation of lipid in FS cell cytoplasm, redundancies in FS cell basement membrane, and other changes. (nih.gov)
Condition2
- The condition is also known, more scientifically, as gastric dilatation-volvulus. (bluecross.org.uk)
- This is a sign of a life-threatening condition called gastric dilatation and volvulus. (portlandmercury.com)
Placement3
- Placement of a Realize Gastric Band is demonstrated in this video. (medscape.com)
- 16. An assessment of feeding jejunostomy tube placement at the time of resection for gastric adenocarcinoma. (nih.gov)
- 19. Optimal enteral feeding in children with gastric dysfunction: surgical jejunostomy vs image-guided gastrojejunal tube placement. (nih.gov)
Occur1
- Gastric dilatation can occur in any dog, and is quite common among young puppies that overeat. (sevenoakspet.com)
Genetic1
- Risk factors for developing Gastric Dilatation Volvulus include genetic factors, age, being fed one large meal per day, and having an increased thoracic height to width ratio. (canna-pet.com)
Gastrointestinal1
- A pre-existing gastric foreign body or gastrointestinal disease. (petmoo.com)
Patients1
- However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no report of oxaliplatin-associated HSOS in patients with gastric cancer. (nih.gov)
Treatment1
- TREATMENT AND OUTCOME In 3 felids with an antemortem diagnosis, the gastric dilatation resolved with decompressive laparotomy but then recurred in 1 felid, which subsequently died. (avma.org)
Common1
- This is comparatively a common side effect as compared to gastric perforation and intra-gastric migration. (indiasurgerytour.com)
Cases1
- The presence of ulcers was noted at the start of dilatation and biopsies were taken from the pyloroduodenal stenotic area to rule out malignancy in all cases. (medscape.com)
Large1
- CASE DESCRIPTION 10 large felids at 8 facilities were determined or suspected to have developed gastric dilatation with or without enterotoxemia over a 20-year period. (avma.org)
