Abstract:
Gallstone disease (cholelithiasis) remains one of the most common gastroenterological diseases worldwide. The formation of gallstones has not been fully studied due to the latent course of the initial stage of gallstone disease. The composition of gallstones is diverse. Among the substances present in gallstones, the least studied is the protein component, the structural units of which are amino acids. In this connection, the main goal of the study was to identify patterns of changes in the amino acid composition of gallstones of various phase compositions. The objects of the study were 23 sam

Abstract:
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether <i>ex-vivo</i> gallstones are distinguishable by type using dualenergy computed tomography (DECT).Materials and Methods: A total of 124 gallstones from 65 patients with acute or chronic calculous cholecystitis were evaluated using DECT. The extracted gallstones were submerged in distilled water in an acrylic container and scanned at tube voltages of 80/140 kVp and 100/140 kVp. The images were grouped into three sets: 80, 100, and 140 kVp. Qualitative analyses of DECT sensitivity and attenuation patterns in each image set were perform

Abstract:
Objective: Gallstone formation is a pathological process of mineralization in the human body. Determination of the morphology and ultrastructure of gallstones holds the key to understanding the pathophysiology of gallbladder disease. Synchrotron radiation phase-contrast Xray microtomography is a novel technology, which is designed for comprehensive analysis of gallstone ultrastructure. Materials and Methods: Nine human gallstones were obtained from the Department of Pathology, Qingpu branch of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University (China), and scanned by synchrotron radiation µCT (

Abstract:
Gallstones contain precipitated cholesterol, calcium salts, and proteins. Calcium (Ca) bilirubinate, palmitate, phosphate, and carbonate occurring in gallstones have variable morphologies but characteristic windowless energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectra. Previous studies of gallstone microstructure and composition using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDX have been limited to dehydrated samples. In this state, Ca bilirubinates appear as either glassy masses, which predominate in black pigment stones, or as clusters, which are found mostly in cholesterol gallstones. The three polymorp

Abstract:
The risk of gallstones is thought to increase with number of pregnancies. Cholesterol gallstones are more prevalent in women than men and primarily related to sex steroids, particularly progesterone. During pregnancy there are changes in bile composition and gallbladder motility that promote gallstone formation. This study was conducted to determine incidence and outcome of pregnancy related biliary sludge and gallstone formation. Two hundred and nine consecutive expectant women were evaluated by ultrasonography at 1st trimester, 3rd trimester and at 4-6 weeks after delivery. Socio-demographic

AbstractGallstones develop in the gallbladder or the bile ducts. According to their chemical composition, gallstones can be divided into cholesterol stones, which are common, and the rare bile pigment stones. Altogether, up to 20 % of all adults develop gallstones and more than 20 % of them symptoms or complications. Female sex, age, pregnancy, physical inactivity, obesity, overnutrition and genetic factors such as ABCB4 deficiency of the hepatic lecithin transporter are kown risk factors for gallstone formation. In about one half of all patients biliary symptoms precede the three common and p

Abstract:
A suite of human gallstones was investigated by vibrational spectroscopic techniques with a view to developing an effective characterization procedure. Using infrared microscopy, microspectroscopic mapping, infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS), and FT-Raman spectroscopy, we have examined both the chemical composition and the microstructure of the different categories of human gallstones. We show how infrared microscopy can be used to determine the chemical identity of particular microstructural features of a stone. Infrared mapping produces functional group maps of the surface of a gallst

Abstract:
Several methods for removing gallstones from the human body are in use or under investigation. They range from noninvasive techniques (dissolving; ultrasound lithotripsy), through minor surgery (use of wire basket lithotriptor; laser lithotripsy), to major surgery. The choice of procedure seeks to accomplish removal of stones while minimizing the cutting of patient tissue, the post-treatment rehabilitation time, and the overall cost. The effectiveness of a given procedure will vary, depending on the size and number of stones present, and especially on their composition and microstructure. Atte
