Background Adiponectin has anti-inflammatory properties and is increased with weight loss. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that negatively regulates adiponectin. Previously, we have demonstrated that Roux-en-Y gastric by

This study was undertaken to report variceal rebleeding and survival after small-diameter prosthetic H-graft portacaval shunts (HGPCS) and to compare actual to predicted survival after shunting. Since 1987 we have prospectively followed patients afte

Background Obesity induces steatosis and increases oxidative stress, as well as chronic inflammation in the liver. The balance between lipogenesis and lipolysis is disrupted in obese animals. At a cellular level, the changes in metabolic sensors and

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) improves steatosis and reduces liver triglycerides in obese rats. Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) are key metabolic regulators that reduce lipogenesis and increase fatty acid oxidation. LKB1 ph

Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States and worldwide. The impact of obesity on health is increasingly recognized; however, its impact on achalasia has not been established. The present study was undertaken to determine the impa
