Effect of alcohol consumption on the outcome of motorcycle accident victimsWe hypothesized that sources of activated charcoal (AC) used as a form of gut decontamination in the treatment of drug overdose may deliver significantly less charcoal than expected because of retained charcoal and sorbitol (...
Alcohol Consumption by Cirrhotic Subjects: Patterns of Use and Effects on Liver Function OBJECTIVE: We investigated patterns of use of alcohol and its clinical effects among cirrhotic subjects who participated in a randomized clinical trial com... MR Lucey,JT Connor,TD Boyer,... - 《American Jour...
Objective: The aim of this pilot study is to determine the immediate effects of oral alcohol consumption on gut wall integrity in healthy male volunteers. The gut wall integrity will be assessed using intestinal- and liver-fatty acid binding proteins (I-FABP and L-FABP) as a measure of the...
Some factors that are identified in the etiology of this disorder include stress, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, nutritional deficiencies and infections [2]. However, the over-ingestion of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and H pylori infection remains the predominant cause of ...
Inflammatory cells anywhere in the body can affect the rest of your system. This means that the gut inflammation caused by long-term, excessive alcohol consumption can promote inflammation throughout the body. Treating this problem means walking a fine line. Since inflammatory cells help fight off...
Dried fruits, such as raisins, contain phytochemicals and dietary fibers that contribute to maintaining health, potentially at least partially through modification in gut microbiota composition and activities. However, the effects of raisin consumption on gut microbiota have not previously been thoroughly ...
We previously showed that male Tsumura Suzuki obese diabetes (TSOD) mice, a spontaneous mouse model of metabolic syndrome, manifested gut dysbiosis and subsequent disruption of the type and quantity of plasma short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and daily coffee intake prevented nonalcoholic steatohepatit...
Host genetics are known to influence the gut microbiome, yet their role remains poorly understood. To robustly characterize these effects, we performed a genome-wide association study of 207 taxa and 205 pathways representing microbial composition and function in 7,738 participants of the Dutch Microb...
The main influencing factors are oxidative stress related to alcohol metabolism, inflammatory mediators, endotoxin in the gut etc., [5,6,7,8]. At present, there is no specific drug for the clinical treatment of ALD [9, 10]. Western medicine can improve liver injury to some extent, but ...
These findings support the hypothesis that, beyond body composition, dietary FA intake and gut microbiota, two potentially related factors, may determine the levels of NAEs and 2‑MAGs in humans29. Yet, very few data are available for most NAEs and 2‑MAGs and little is known on their co...
