  • Digestive System (Part-I)
    NPTEL – Basic Courses – Basic Biology Lecture 11: Digestive System (Part-I) Introduction: The collective processes by which a living organism takes food which are necessary for their growth, maintenance and energy needs is called nutrition. The chemical substances present in the food are called nutrients. DIFFERENT MODE OF NUTRITION IN ORGANISMS: It is important to know the different modes of nutrition in all living organisms in order to understand energy flow within the ecosystem. Plant produces high energy organic food from inorganic raw materials. They are called autotroph and the mode of nutrition is known as autotrophic nutrition. Animals feed on those high energy organic food, are called as heterotrophs and their mode of nutrition is known as heterotrophic nutrition Heterotrophic nutrition further sub-categorise in holozoic, parasitic, and saprophytic mode of nutrition based on the pattern and class of food that is taken inside. Holozoic Nutrition: It involves taking entire organic food and this can be in the form of whole part of plant or animal. Most of the free living protozoans, humans and other animals fall under this category. Saprophytic Nutrition: The organism fulfils the requirement of food from the rotten parts of dead organisms and decaying matter. The organisms secrete digestive enzymes outside the body on their food and then take in digested food. It is a kind of extra-cellular digestion. Examples: Housefly, Spiders etc. Parasitic Nutrition: The organism fulfils the requirement of food from the body of another organism. The parasites are of two distinct types, one which lives inside the host and the other which lives outside.

  • Exploring and Developing Algorithm of Predicting Advanced Cancer
    Exploring and Developing Algorithm of Predicting Advanced Cancer Stage of Colorectal Cancer Based on Medical Claim Database A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Division of Pharmacy Practice and Administrative Sciences of the James Winkle College of Pharmacy By Boyang Bian March 2014 Dissertation Committee Members Jeff J. Guo, Ph.D. (Chair) Christina M.L. Kelton, Ph.D. Wei Pan, Ph.D. Jane M. Pruemer, Pharm. D. Patricia R. Wigle, Pharm. D. I Abstract Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a type of cancer which develops from uncontrolled cell growth in the colon or rectum. It is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in males and the second in females. In epidemiologic research for CRC, advanced cancer stage is an important factor for determining disease development and treatment patterns. However, this variable is not available because medical claims databases is retrospective and only original built for financial analysis only. Algorithms to predict advanced CRC stage were developed based on the existing medical information in claims database. Method: Study cohorts were identified from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)-Medicare database. Two algorithms were constructed based on covariates obtained from the database for different study periods, including demographic, treatment pattern variables. The training set was used to derive predictive equations by using logistic regression model, then applied to validation set for evaluating the predictive characteristics (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV)). The developed algorithm were applied to MarketScan® Commercial Claims and Encounters Database and tested the predictive values.

K. KHOO AND I. R. MACKAY From the Clinical Research Unit of The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research and The Royal Melbourne Hospital, Victoria 3050, Australia SYNOPSIS Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was measured in whole serum and in serum extracted with perchloric acid by microradioimmunoassay in patients with benign and malignant diseases of the liver and pancreas. The level of detectability was 5 ng per ml. This level or greater was present in the serum of 50 % of patients with chronic diffuse liver disease, 640% with pancreatitis, 94o/% with cancer of the digestive system, and 3% ofcontrols. The incidence of levels of CEA of 5 ng/ml or more differed for various categories of chronic liver disease: from 22 % in active chronic hepatitis, 46 % in primary biliary cirrhosis, 63 % in hepatoma, 78 % in cryptogenic cirrhosis, and 88 % in alcoholic cirrhosis; levels of CEA correlated with degrees of impairment of liver function as judged by bromsulphalein retention and serum levels of alkaline phosphatase and transaminase. In pancreatitis, 64% of cases had levels of CEA ranging from 5 to 20 ng/ml and in cancer of the pancreas 94 % had levels above 5 ng/ml and 50 % above 20 ng/ml. copyright. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in serum was CEA in patients with colonic cancer from 1904, originally held to be specific for cancer of the through 5300 to 100%; equivalent findings were digestive system (Gold and Freedman, 1965a, reported in a joint investigation (1972) on CEA in 1965b), but CEA-like activity has been reported in colonic cancer.

  • Circulating Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA): Inflammatory Bowel Disease
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.14.11.880 on 1 November 1973. Downloaded from Gut, 1973, 14, 880-884 Circulating carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA): Relationship to clinical status of patients with inflammatory bowel disease A. H. RULE, C. GOLESKI-REILLY, D. B. SACHAR1, J. VANDEVOORDE, AND H. D. JANOWITZ From the Division of Gastroenterology, Department ofMedicine, The Mount Sinai Hospital and The Mount Sinai School ofMedicine of the City Untiversity ofNew York, New York, USA SUMMARY Plasma levels of circulating carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were measured by zirconyl phosphate gel radioimmunoassay in 112 patients with chronic inflammatory bowel disease. The levels were then related to category, extent, duration, and severity of disease, as well as to the ages and surgical status of the patients. The distribution of CEA levels and their mean values were significantly raised over the levels in 33 normal control subjects, and were similar among patients with ulcerative colitis compared with those with granulomatous bowel disease. Positive values were defined as those in excess of 2.5 ng/ml. Positive assays occurred in 42 % of ulcerative colitis patients, in 38 % of Crohn's disease patients, and in 40 % of the total group with inflammatory bowel disease. Among normal control subjects, only 3 % were positive. Among inflammatory bowel disease patients, positive CEA assays occurred more frequently with more severe disease, more extensive anatomical involvement, younger ages, and shorter duration of disease. Those patients who had undergone http://gut.bmj.com/ total colectomy showed levels of circulating CEA and frequency of CEA positivity similar to those of an age-matched normal control group.

  • Mammalian Gastrointestinal Tract Parameters Modulating the Integrity, Surface Properties, and Absorption of Food-Relevant Nanoma
    Advanced Review Mammalian gastrointestinal tract parameters modulating the integrity, surface properties, and absorption of food-relevant nanomaterials Susann Bellmann,1 David Carlander,2 Alessio Fasano,3 Dragan Momcilovic,4 Joseph A. Scimeca,5 W. James Waldman,6 Lourdes Gombau,7 Lyubov Tsytsikova,8 Richard Canady,8 Dora I. A. Pereira9 and David E. Lefebvre10∗ Many natural chemicals in food are in the nanometer size range, and the selective uptake of nutrients with nanoscale dimensions by the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a normal physiological process. Novel engineered nanomaterials (NMs) can bring various benefits to food, e.g., enhancing nutrition. Assessing potential risks requires an understanding of the stability of these entities in the GI lumen, and an understanding of whether or not they can be absorbed and thus become systemically available. Data are emerging on the mammalian in vivo absorption of engineered NMs composed of chemicals with a range of properties, including metal, mineral, biochemical macromolecules, and lipid-based entities. In vitro and in silico fluid incubation data has also provided some evidence of changes in particle stability, aggregation, and surface properties following interaction with luminal factors present in the GI tract. The variables include physical forces, osmotic concentration, pH, digestive enzymes, other food, and endogenous biochemicals, and commensal microbes. Further research is required to fill remaining data gaps on the effects of these parameters on NM integrity, physicochemical properties, and GI absorption. Knowledge of the most influential luminal parameters will be essential when developing models of the GI tract to quantify the percent absorption of food-relevant engineered NMs for risk assessment.

    All about The GI System A self paced learning program for direct care staff By: Barbara Obst, RN, MS Fall 2011 Introduction • This is a self paced independent training program for direct care staff. • The information taught will promote safe care of individuals served in the DD community setting. Objectives:The Participant will be able to: • Understand the basic anatomy and physiology of the gastrointestinal tract. • Identify two types of constipation. • State 4 causes of constipation. • State 3 causes of diarrhea. • Indentify the reason why the Bristol Stool Scale is important. • Identify 3 possible solutions to prevent constipation. The GI System a Snapshot The Human Digestive System • A complex system of organs and glands that work together to digest (breakdown) food into smaller particles that are absorbed to support the body’s nutritional needs. • The digestive system concentrates the waste/by-products of the digestive process and expels the waste products in the form of feces/stool. • Most of the digestive system is a tube-like tract that propels the food through the body. The Digestive System • The digestive system is a tube-like tract that includes the esophagus, stomach and lpch.org intestines. This tract runs from the mouth to the anus. • In addition to the tube-like tract, the salivary glands, liver, pancreas, and gall bladder secrete/store enzymes/chemicals into the tract to facilitate digestion. The Digestive Process • In the mouth: english-lss.com – Food is partly broken down by the process of chewing and the chemical action of the enzymes secreted by the salivary glands. – Once the chewing action is completed, the food bolus is swallowed into the esophagus.

  • Digestive System and Nutrition - Chapter 26
    Digestive System and Nutrition - Chapter 26 All animals are heterotrophs and need organic molecules as food. We need food to get nutrients and energy. Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure to understand desirable body weight for a person of certain height. It is considered overweight if its value is above 25. Formula used to calculate BMI is: Body Mass Index = body weight in Kg / height in m2 Cnidarians and flat worms have incomplete digestive system with one opening mouth. Actually this cavity acts as a gastrovascular cavity and serves as both digestive and vascular system. Complete digestive tract Round worms evolved complete digestive system with both mouth and anus. It has a tube within tube design. Most animals including humans have a digestive tract and associated glands. Human Digestive System Humans have digestive tract with: mouth mouth cavity pharynx esophagus stomach duodenum small intestine large intestine anus. The associated glands are salivary glands, liver, and pancreas. Liver and Pancreas Liver: is the largest gland in body. It stores its waste bile in Gall Bladder. Bile is released into duodenum and helps in digestion of fats. Liver secretion, bile, does not have any enzymes in it. Liver absorbs excess glucose from blood and release it back when needed. Pancreas: is the 2nd largest gland in human body. It secretes pancreatic juice into duodenum. The juice changes the acidic food from stomach into slightly basic food. It is very rich in digestive enzymes and help in digestion of starch, fats, proteins and nucleic acids. 4-stages of food-processing Ingestion is the eating of food by an animal.
