In this encore episode, we detail the pathophysiology of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (H₂-SIBO), and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO (H₂S-SIBO), discussing their mechanistic interactions and overlap. We discuss methanogenic archaea, as well hydrogen sulfide- and hydrogen-producing microbes and their contributions to altered gastrointestinal motility, epithelial barrier function, and neuromuscular signaling. We detail host endogenous defense mechanisms, including gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzymatic activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more.Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen-dominant SIBO - Discussion of overlap 2. Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO)- Characterized by an overabundance of methane-producing archaea - Methane and intestinal transit- Bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation - Associated with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) 3. Overlap Between IMO and SIBO Subtypes- Hydrogen as a substrate for methane and/or hydrogen sulfide production- Shared potential root causes 4. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Protective Mechanisms- The small intestine remains relatively free of bacteria due to protective mechanisms - Gastric acid secretion - Pancreatic enzymes and bile - Intestinal motility- Structural abnormalities 5. Hydrogen-Dominant SIBO - Increased hydrogen and intestinal transit- Potential symptoms, diarrhea, postprandial bloating - Different forms of SIBO can coexist 6. Hydrogen Sulfide-Dominant SIBO - H₂S and intestinal motility- H₂S and intestinal epithelial integrity- Symptoms, associations with IBS diarrhea 7. Host Defense Mechanisms Regulating Microbial Balance- Gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzyme activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more 8. Gastric Acid and Its Role in Microbial Regulation- Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor - Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, conversion into pepsin in acidic conditions - Gastric acid, digestion and antimicrobial defense 9. Hypochlorhydria - Low gastric acid impairs microbial defense- Reduced acidity disrupts digestion and downstream pancreatic enzyme and bile release 10. Pancreatic Enzymes and Their Role in Microbial Regulation- Pancreatic enzymes, digestion, antimicrobial activity - Enzymes modify chyme to limit fermentable substrates that fuel microbial proliferation 11. Intestinal Motility - Coordinated contractions propel food, microbes, and waste through the GI tract - The enteric nervous system (ENS) and gut motility- The myenteric plexus controls peristalsis, while the submucosal plexus regulates secretion and absorption 12. Conclusion- Intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO - Overlap in symptoms and microbial interactions - Host defense mechanisms, including gastric acid, pancreatic enzymes, and motility - Intestinal motility and ENS function in microbial homeostasis - Hydrogen sulfide as a gasotransmitterGet Chloe's Book Today!

Critical Care St James's Hospital in the past year, have abolished the practice of measuring Gastric Residual Volumes (GRV's). This practice has been ingrained in many ICU's nationally and internationally for many years now despite little to no evidence to support it. We interview key members of the MDT today including Dr Arnaud-Felix Miailhe Consultant Intensivist, Emer O Sullivan Clinical Specialist Dietitian and Deirdre Doyle Practice Development Facilitator Critical Care St James's Hospital about the changes in practice, the literature surrounding this practice and the value of MDT involvement in driving change.
In this episode, we highlight the stomach's role in vitamin B12 absorption and bioavailability, detailing the cellular composition of the gastric mucosa and further highlighting mucous cells, parietal cells, and chief cells. We also briefly discuss Helicobacter pylori and common symptoms, while detailing H. pylori's survival mechanisms in the acidic gastric environment as well as potential impacts on the gastric mucosal barrier. Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of the stomach's role in B12 absorption- Helicobacter pylori 2. H. pylori Overview- Gram-negative bacterium, can colonize the stomach lining- Many individuals remain asymptomatic- Symptoms - Can contribute to gastritis and peptic ulcers- Produces urease, hydrolyzes urea into ammonia (NH₃) andcarbon dioxide (CO₂)- Ammonia neutralizes stomach acid locally, protective microenvironment- H. pylori damages the mucosal barrier and contributes to persistence- Possesses additional virulence factors 3. Gastric Anatomy - Stomach is divided into the cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus- The gastric mucosa - The epithelial lining; mucous cells, parietal cells, chief cells, and more 4. Mucous Cells and Mucosal Protection - Line the gastric pits and secrete thick, viscous mucus- Mucus composed of water, mucin glycoproteins, and other low-molecular-weight molecules- Traps bicarbonate ions (HCO₃⁻)- Shields the stomach lining 5. Parietal Cells - Located in the gastric glands, predominantly in the fundus and body- Secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl)- Secrete intrinsic factor (IF) 6. Vitamin B12 Overview - Cobalamin: DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, neurological function, methylation, and more- Methylcobalamin and 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin- Non-active forms include hydroxocobalamin and synthetic cyanocobalamin 7. Vitamin B12 Absorption Pathway - B12 is released from proteins by HCl and pepsin- Binds first to haptocorrin- In the small intestine, pancreatic enzymes degrade haptocorrin- B12 binds intrinsic factor - Absorption in the ileum - Impairment 8. Chief Cells - Located in the gastric glands- Secrete pepsinogen, activated by acid into pepsin- Also secrete gastric lipase 9. Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) - Secreted by parietal cells- Denatures dietary proteins and activates pepsinogen- Acts as a defense mechanism by aiding in sterilizing ingested food 10. Relevance of H. pylori - Produces urease that breaks down urea into NH₃ and CO₂- Ammonia neutralizes acid locally, forming a protective “bubble”- Enhances mucosal damage and microbial persistence 11. B12 Absorption - Multiple factors and root causes can impair absorption- H. pylori 12. Hypochlorhydria - Symptoms- Absorption: vitamin B12, iron, calcium, magnesium, more- Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) 13. Conclusion- Multi-factorial, root cause approachThanks for tuning in!Get Chloe's Book Today!

Carla Piera FitzGerald lost half her body weight in 14 months – An incredible loss of 13 stone or 83 kilos. She told us about her unhealthy relationship with food which began with hiding sweets aged 5 and continued through to her 30s. She tried every diet going but it was only when Carla sorted her head out, that she began to see substantial changes in her body.Carla's story is so inspiring, especially for anyone looking for a fresh start this January, and it just goes to show what we can do when we're consistent and when we put our minds to something. Carla spoke openly about Ozempic and Gastric bands which are seen as ‘quick and easy' fixes, and she shared all the unexpected ways weight loss has improved her life from making flying easier, to making her taller!Carla's new podcast The Imperfectionist is out now!
Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Vivek Kaul, MD The American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) recently released a new guideline on when to use endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) in managing early esophageal and gastric cancers. To learn more about when to use each approach, Dr. Peter Buch sits down with guideline co-author Dr. Vivek Kaul. Dr. Kaul is also the Segal-Watson Professor of Medicine at the University of Rochester Medical Center in New York.
In this episode of SurgOnc Today®, Steve Kwon, MD, and Mike Mavros, MD, are joined by Joo Ha Hwang, MD, and Yanghee Woo, MD, for a discussion of managing patients at high-risk of gastric cancer development at the population-level and at the patient-level. The panel will also discuss nonoperative and operative strategies in managing precancerous gastric lesions and early gastric cancers.
In this episode, we discuss the anatomy and physiology of the stomach and its unique epithelial structure. We dive into the pathophysiological implications of conditions such as Helicobacter pylori infection and hypochlorhydria, examining how they disrupt gastric function and microbial balance. Finally, we connect these concepts to the small intestine, discussing possible downstream effects of altered gastric acid secretion, focusing on microbial colonization and contributions to broader gastrointestinal health challenges, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Topics: 1. Introduction Highlighting the stomach and anatomy. Discussion on H. pylori. Interplay between the stomach and small intestines, focusing on microbial balance and overgrowth. 2. Anatomy of the Stomach The stomach as a hollow, muscular organ located between the esophagus and small intestine. Anatomical regions: cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus. Layers of gastric mucosa: epithelial lining, lamina propria, and thin band of smooth muscle. 3. Epithelial Lining and Specialized Cells Mucous cells: Location within the surface epithelium and gastric pits. Secretion of viscous mucus containing mucins, forming a protective barrier. Role in shielding the epithelial lining from acidic gastric juices and creating a neutral microenvironment. Parietal cells: Location in the gastric glands, predominantly in the fundus and body. Secretion of hydrochloric acid (HCl) for digestion and defense. Production of intrinsic factor and vitamin B12 absorption. Chief cells: Secretion of pepsinogen, converted to pepsin for protein digestion. Production of gastric lipase for lipid digestion. Enteroendocrine cells: Hormone secretion. Gastrin, acid secretion and gastric motility. 4. Protection and Functionality of Gastric Mucosa Physical and chemical barriers. Acidic environment maintained by parietal cells for enzymatic activity and pathogen defense. Coordination of cell functions for efficient digestion and protection. 5. Transition from Stomach to Small Intestine Anatomical junction marked by the pyloric sphincter. Balancing the acidic environment of the stomach with the intestinal conditions. Differences between stomach and intestinal epithelial barriers. 6. Microbial Communities in the Stomach and Intestines Limited microbial diversity in the stomach due to its low pH. Acid-resistant populations such as H. pylori and their impact on microbial diversity. H. pylori , chronic gastritis, ulcers, and gastric lining atrophy. 7. H. Pylori Infection and Symptoms Symptoms, manifestations. 8. Low Stomach Acid (Hypochlorhydria) The role of stress, aging, and infections. Downstream effects, particularly in the development of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). 9. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) Definition and microbial population thresholds. Protective mechanisms regulating bacterial density in the small intestine. Role of low stomach acid in bacterial colonization and overgrowth. Consequences of SIBO, including symptoms and metabolic activity of overgrown bacteria. 10. Conclusion Root cause analysis. Thank you to our episode sponsor: 1.

In this Q&A-packed episode of the Pound of Cure Weight Loss podcast, Dr. Weiner and Zoe answer listener questions about navigating post-surgery challenges like dumping syndrome, food noise, and pregnancy after weight loss surgery. Here are the highlights:How to Lower Your Set Point Without Food Noise Sabotaging YouListener Rain asked about dealing with chocolate cravings after losing just five pounds. The team shared practical tips:Balanced Meals: Avoid skipping meals and eat nutrient-dense foods like vegetables, lean proteins, and fiber.Curb Sugar Cravings: Plan indulgences and make healthy swaps, such as Greek yogurt with cocoa powder and banana.When to Consider Medications: GLP-1 medications like Wegovy or Zepbound may help reduce food noise for sustained weight loss.Considering Gastric Bypass Revision SurgeryPriscilla asked about revising her sleeve gastrectomy to address severe reflux and weight regain. Dr. Weiner outlined key points:Improved Safety: Advances in surgical techniques make bypass surgery much safer today.Risks: Be mindful of dumping syndrome, ulcers, and iron deficiency, which require diligent management.Benefits: Revision can alleviate reflux and improve long-term health outcomes. Mindful eating is essential for post-revision success.What is Dumping Syndrome?Dr. Weiner explained that dumping syndrome, common after bypass surgery, occurs when sugary or fatty foods enter the small intestine too quickly.

Sometimes all of us have pains all over our bodies and don't understand why. Did you know what kind of pain is associated with each body organ? However, note that this information is of an introductory kind and shouldn't be taken as a strict guide. TIMESTAMPS Heart 0:36 Kidneys 1:00 Small intestine 1:21 Large intestine 1:37 Lungs 1:51 Appendix 2:13 Stomach 2:37 Gallbladder and liver 3:04 Pancreas 3:26 SUMMARY If something is wrong with the heart, a person feels compressing pain in the chest that can spread to the left arm, shoulder blade, and part of the neck. Kidney pain can sometimes be confused with a simple backache. The difference is that kidney pain is deeper under the ribs, while muscle pain is usually lower. Problems with the small intestine usually cause pain in the navel region. If the pain persists and causes discomfort when bending or walking, don't put off a visit to a doctor. Issues with the large intestine are usually associated with pain in the lower abdomen, closer to the right side. The lungs themselves don't feel pain due to a lack of nerve endings. But if something's wrong with them, you may feel a dull ache in your chest. The appendix is located in the lower right region of the abdomen, but pain may affect the whole stomach area or its separate parts. The pain may also travel to your right thigh. Other signs of issues with the appendix are nausea, vomiting, fever, and constipation or diarrhea. Gastric problems cause pain in the middle abdominal region above the ribs and can also appear on the same level in the back. Gallbladder and liver problems may cause pain in the upper right region of the abdomen. It can also travel to the same place in the back. Liver issues are also associated with a wide range of symptoms, such as a sour taste in the mouth and jaundice. Pancreatic problems are indicated by pain in the middle part of the upper abdominal region. However, a less intense pain may also travel to the whole stomach.

On October 18, 2024, the FDA approved zolbetuximab plus fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for the frontline treatment of adult patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic, HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma. This regulatory decision was backed by findings from the phase 3 SPOTLIGHT (NCT03504397) and GLOW (NCT03653507) trials. In SPOTLIGHT, In SPOTLIGHT, patients who received zolbetuximab plus mFOLFOX6 (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin) achieved a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 10.6 months (95% CI, 8.9-12.5) vs 8.7 months (95% CI, 8.2-10.3) in those who received placebo plus chemotherapy (HR, 0.750; 95% CI, 0.601-0.936; 1-sided P = .0053). In GLOW, zolbetuximab plus CAPOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) generated a median PFS of 8.2 months (95% CI, 7.5-8.8) vs 6.8 months (95% CI, 6.1-8.1) with placebo plus CAPOX (HR, 0.771; 95% CI, 0.615-0.965; 1-sided P = .0118). In our exclusive interview, Dr Ajani discussed key considerations for the clinical use of zolbetuximab, including its anticipated adverse effect profile and the introduction of CLDN18.2 as a biomarker for assessment prior to treatment initiation.
The addition of preoperative chemoradiation therapy to perioperative chemotherapy did not improve overall survival as compared with perioperative chemotherapy alone in patients with resectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinomas. The multi-continent, Phase III randomized TOPGEAR trial has definitively found no benefit from adding radiation before surgery in terms of overall or progression-free survival. This clear finding was reported simultaneously in the New England Journal of Medicine and at the ESMO 2024 Congress held in Barcelona, Spain. After presenting the findings , first author Trevor Leong, MD, Radiation Oncologist at the Peter McCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne, Australia, met up with Oncology Times reporter Peter Goodwin.

Take Home Points Orogastric lavage may still play an important role in treatment of the overdose patient. Do not perform lavage if the ingestion has limited toxicity at any dose or the ingested dose is unlikely to cause significant toxicity. Strongly consider orogastric lavage in a patient who has taken an overdose of drugs that ...

Last week we talked about the nutrients many people are deficient in. Today, we talk about WHY. This is where we dig into the processes in the body that lead to proper nourishment, and those that can hamper them. When we understand why, we can then make a plan for better nutrition and reduce the need for supplementation. Of this list, there are three I want to dig into in more detail, and one of them I cover today - proper production and release of gastric juices. What are they? Where do they come from? What do they contain? What happens when they are not functioning correctly, and how can we balance them? All of this answered in today's podcast! This episode is included in either the Community Herbalism or Clinical Herbalism program, offered by Herba Remedium. Herba Remedium is an online, Christian herbalist school.

Check out these 15 symptoms of high blood sugar that might occur while you're sleeping. 1. Frequent urinating This is known as nocturia and occurs when your kidneys remove excess sugar from your blood. 2. Excessive thirst As your kidneys eliminate sugar through your urine, you deplete magnesium, potassium, and calcium. You can also become dehydrated, so you may have excessive thirst. 3. Restless legs syndrome Excess sugar depletes vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 deficiency causes lactic acid buildup and a lack of oxygen in the legs. This can also be related to magnesium deficiency. 4. Peripheral neuropathy This condition causes burning, pain, or numbness on the bottom of the feet. Benfotiamine combined with alpha lipoic acid is a great remedy. 5. Cramps in lower legs and feet Too much sugar in the blood can cause a magnesium deficiency and calcium buildup. Magnesium glycinate supplements can help, and can also improve sleep. 6. Excessive sweating This usually occurs in the face, neck, or upper part of the body. High blood sugar causes sympathetic dominance, which causes a person to be in a constant state of fight or flight. 7. Sleep apnea This usually occurs because a person has high levels of insulin. 8. Hypoglycemia If you have high blood sugar, your body will try to lower it with insulin. This can cause you to wake up during the night with low blood sugar. Following a low-carb diet for at least 6 to 8 months can help correct this problem. 9. Delayed sleep High levels of sugar delay the release of melatonin. 10. Gastric reflux High blood sugar can affect the autonomic nervous system that controls the valve on the top of the stomach, causing GERD. 11. Nightmares/vivid dreams This is typically related to a neurotransmitter problem caused by a deficiency in vitamin B1, which is depleted by high blood sugar. 12. High blood pressure Nocturnal dipping occurs when your blood pressure and pulse rate decrease during sleep. When you have diabetes, this doesn't happen. This is called non-dipping. 13. Heart palpitations This is caused by a lack of potassium and magnesium and can be corrected with a good electrolyte powder. 14. Teeth grinding The activation of the sympathetic nervous system puts a person into a state of stress while they're sleeping, causing teeth grinding. 15. Headache upon waking This usually occurs because of dehydration.
