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:
Gallstone disease is a widespread disorder costing billions for annual treatment in the United States. The primary mechanisms underlying gallstone formation are biliary cholesterol supersaturation and gallbladder hypomotility. The relative contribution of these two processes has been difficult to dissect, as experimental lithogenic diets cause both bile supersaturation and alterations in gallbladder motility. Importantly, there is no mechanistic explanation for obesity as a major risk factor for cholelithiasis. We discovered that lithogenic diets induce ectopic triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulati

BACKGROUNDTreatment of acromegaly with octreotide increases the proportion of deoxycholic acid in, and the cholesterol saturation of, bile and induces the formation of gallstones. Prolongation of intestinal transit has been proposed as the mechanism for the increase in the proportion of deoxycholic acid in bile.AIMSTo study the effects of octreotide on intestinal transit in acromegalic patients during octreotide treatment, and to examine the relation between intestinal transit and bile acid composition in fasting serum.METHODSMouth to caecum and large bowel transit times, and the proportion of

Background: Aim of the study was to assess the etiology and determine the chemical composition of gallstones in our population.Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted at GMC Srinagar from 2018 to 2020. One hundred patients having gall stone disease were enrolled into the study and after cholecystectomy was performed the stones chemical composition was analyzed by fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The data was collated and analysed.Results: 54 patients had mixed stones with chemical composition of cholesterol, calcium carbonate and calcium bilirubinate; 39 ha

According to the Recommendations of the Scientific society of gastroenterologists of Russia for the diagnosis and treatment of cholelithiasis (GI), GI is a multifactorial disease of the hepatobiliary system and one of the most common diseases of the digestive system. It is known that in the vast majority of cases, GI develops as a result of the complex influence of many risk factors. Thus, the change in the qualitative and quantitative composition of bile, as well as a history of gastrectomy, papillosphincterotomy, the right-hand hemicolectomy, cholesterosis gall bladder, chronic hepatitis, pe

Structural composition of 11 trace elements with Z greater than 13 ( Al , P , Si , K , Ca , Mn , Fe , Cu , Zn , Mo , I ) was analyzed for the two main groups of human gallstones according to their cholesterol and pigment types by PIXE (Proton Induced X - ray Emission). In both types of stones, the shell and the center were analyzed separately. The gallstones were obtained from 12 patients in wide age group from 22 to 78 years of age during surgical operation. The results show relatively higher values of heavy elements for ages greater than 40. The values of phosphorous in cholesterol type ston
