  2. Gastrointestinal bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastrointestinal_bleeding

    Despite treatment, re-bleeding occurs in about 7–16% of those with upper GI bleeding. [3] In those with esophageal varices, bleeding occurs in about 5–15% a year and if they have bled once, there is a higher risk of further bleeding within six weeks. [13] Testing and treating H. pylori if found can prevent re-bleeding in those with peptic ...

  3. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Upper_gastrointestinal_bleeding

    A number of medications may improve outcomes depending on the source of the bleeding. [15] Proton pump inhibitor medications are often given in the emergent setting before an endoscopy and may reduce the need for an endoscopic haemotstatic treatment. [16] Proton pump inhibitors decrease gastric acid production. [16]

  4. Checkpoint inhibitor induced colitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkpoint_inhibitor...

    Checkpoint inhibitor induced colitis is an inflammatory condition affecting the colon , which is caused by cancer immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitor therapy). Symptoms typically consist of diarrhea, abdominal pain and rectal bleeding. Less commonly, nausea and vomiting may occur, which may suggest the present of gastroenteritis. The severity ...

  5. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_intestinal_bacterial...

    Risk factors for the development of bacterial overgrowth include dysmotility; anatomical disturbances in the bowel, including fistulae, diverticula and blind loops created after surgery, and resection of the ileo-cecal valve; gastroenteritis-induced alterations to the small intestine; and the use of certain medications, including proton pump ...

  6. Lower gastrointestinal bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Lower_gastrointestinal_bleeding

    A lower gastrointestinal bleed is defined as bleeding originating distal to the ileocecal valve, which includes the colon, rectum, and anus. [2] LGIB was previously defined as any bleed that occurs distal to the ligament of Treitz, which included the aforementioned parts of the intestine and also included the last 1/4 of the duodenum and the entire area of the jejunum and ileum. [1]

  7. Ischemic colitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischemic_colitis

    Ischemic colitis must be differentiated from the many other causes of abdominal pain and rectal bleeding (for example, infection, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulosis, or colon cancer). It is also important to differentiate ischemic colitis, which often resolves on its own, from the more immediately life-threatening condition of acute ...

  8. Bowel obstruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowel_obstruction

    Depending on the level of obstruction, bowel obstruction can present with abdominal pain, abdominal distension, and constipation.Bowel obstruction may be complicated by dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities due to vomiting; respiratory compromise from pressure on the diaphragm by a distended abdomen, or aspiration of vomitus; bowel ischemia or perforation from prolonged distension or ...

  9. FODMAP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FODMAP

    Some FODMAPs, such as fructose, are readily absorbed in the small intestine of humans via GLUT receptors. [19] Absorption thus depends on the appropriate expression and delivery of these receptors in the intestinal enterocyte to both the apical surface, contacting the lumen of the intestine (e.g., GLUT5), and to the basal membrane, contacting the blood (e.g., GLUT2). [19]
