Parasitosis intestinales en pacientes con malabsorción a lactosa y/o fructosa. Valoración del efecto de la terapia combinada
2019
La malabsorción de carbohidratos entre adultos es cada vez más frecuente. Estudios recientes sugieren una relación entre las parasitosis intestinales y el desarrollo de estos procesos patológicos. Las enteroparasitosis provocan cambios en la mucosa intestinal asociados con mala digestión y malabsorción de los alimentos. Este estudio ha analizado la frecuencia de parásitos intestinales en individuos adultos con trastornos gastrointestinales crónicos y diagnóstico de malabsorción a carbohidratos mediante el test de aliento. Para el diagnostico parasitológico se combinaron técnicas convencionales con moleculares. Los parásitos detectados fueron: Giardia intestinalis (24,4%), Blastocystis sp. (…
Participatory alternatives for charity food delivery? Finnish development in an international comparison
2014
[Introduction] Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; show him how to catch fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. First and foremost, hunger as an extreme form of marginalization is a problem of developing countries. It is interesting, though, that food insecurity is also increasing rapidly in the developed world. This article deals with the particular phenomena of marginalization in forms of hunger and food insecurity in rich Western countries. Participation is discussed here as a promising option to deactivating and, at the worst, humiliating charity food delivery. The starting point of the article is that welfare services or policies have not been able to solve the problem of hu…
Wellness : elämyksellinen hyvinvointikulutus haasteena kaupalle ja palveluliiketoiminnalle
2014
Wellness-kulutuksesta on tullut yksi nousevista kulutustrendeistä ja ilmiö on saanut osakseen yhä kasvavaa huomiota ja laajempia merkityksiä niin tutkimuksessa, mediassa kuin liiketoiminnassakin. Nyky-yhteiskunnassa hyvinvoinnin tavoittelu ja itsensä kehittäminen on tietyssä määrin jopa aineellista hyvinvointia merkityksellisempää ja terveydestä ja hyvinvoinnista on tullut uusi elämänarvo. Hyvinvointi ja hyväkuntoisuus nähdään paitsi henkilökohtaisena velvollisuutena myös statussymbolina ja kilpailuvalttina. Kulutusresursseilla ja koulutuksella on tutkimusten mukaan vahva yhteys terveydentilaan ja hyvinvointiin. Wellness-kuluttajista on kuitenkin Suomessa toistaiseksi melko vähän empiiristä…

Optimizing the use of linaclotide in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome : an expert consensus report
2017
INTRODUCTION: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional bowel disorder characterized by chronic or recurrent abdominal pain in association with defecation or a change in bowel habits. A predominant disorder of bowel habits, IBS is classified into three main subtypes: constipation-predominant IBS (IBS-C), diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) and IBS alternating between constipation and diarrhea (IBS-M). Linaclotide is a first-in-class, oral, once-daily guanylate cyclase-C receptor agonist (GC-CA) that is licensed for the symptomatic treatment of moderate-to-severe IBS-C in adults. This review aims to facilitate and optimize clinical practices, establishing common guidelines to monitor patie…

Anastomoses (Ileorectal; Colorectal)
1979
With disease processes that involve the large bowel but leave the rectum free (Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, neoplasms), a surgical procedure used for their treatment will result in an anastomosis that may be seen during rectoscopy. During the postoperative follow-up period, careful attention should be given to any recurrence, which in cases of Crohn’s disease is seen very early on rectoscopy.
Proctitis and constipation: A symptom of food allergy?
2015
Abstract Allergic proctitis can occur in infants and children. It is expressed by feces streaked with blood without other apparent signs. More than 50% of these patients are being breast-fed. Recently, it has been found that a particular symptom of allergic proctitis is constipation, and it is a major cause of consultations in pediatric gastroenterology departments. We carried out a study, which included a series of patients who were seen for chronic constipation that had not responded to the usual therapy. We found that the majority of these patients had a reduction in the layer of mucus coating the rectum, and this sign was associated with intolerance to cow's milk protein and also to oth…
