Upper small intestine microbiome in obesity and related metabolic disorders: A new field of investigation Emilie Steinbach, ... Karine Clément, in Metabolism, 2024 3.5 Upper small intestine microbiome in human obesity and related disorders There have been limited studies evaluating the composition of ...
The radiation sensitivity of the alimentary tract varies with the type of epithelium and glandular structures present, and the degree and nature of the vascularization. The radiosensitivities for mitosis-linked cell death of epithelium from highest to lowest are the small intestine, esophagus, stomach...
Deep enteroscopy allows careful inspection of the mucosa and therapeutics, but is time consuming and invasive. Enterography (CT or MR) allows examination of the small bowel wall and surrounding structures. The initial best test for detecting small intestinal disease depends on clinical presentation and...
We present a multi-modal workflow for the characterization of both structural and quantitative parameters of the mouse small intestine. As proof of principle, we evidence its applicability for imaging the mouse intestinal immune compartment and surrounding mucosal structures. We quantify the volumetric ...
PRINCIPLES OF IMAGING AND ENDOSCOPY Initial Workup/Staging Chest, abdomen, pelvic CT ?Evaluate local extent of tumor infiltration into surrounding structures. ?Assess for distant metastatic disease to lungs, lymph node, liver, peritoneal cavity, and other organs. ?CT abdomen/pelvis should be ...
The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy to relieve the obstruction and a mass was identified originating from the terminal ileum that adhered to surrounding structures. Pathological analysis determined the mass to be small bowel leiomyosarcoma. Leiomyosarcoma is definitively diagnosed after primary ...

Long-wavelength, near-infrared small-molecule dyes are attractive in biophotonics. Conventionally, they rely on expanded aromatic structures for redshift, which comes at the cost of application performance such as photostability, cell permeability, and f
cell polarity giving rise to an apical and basolateral topology (Klunder et al., 2017). Villi are fingerlike structures covered by epithelium of differentiated cells pointing toward the luminal space of the intestine to increase nutrient absorption. The foundation of each villus is surrounded by ...
Indeed, cohabitation of Streptococcus and Veillonella occurs not only in the intestine, but also in the stomach, esophagus, throat, and oral cavity,30, 31 and is likely attributed to their metabolic interaction surrounding lactic acid production and utilization, respectively.32 Dietary Fat and the ...
