Advantages of fecal lactoferrin measurement during granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis therapy in ulcerative colitis.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Capsule endoscopy (CE) has been recognised as an important investigational tool in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal disease. Studies have shown that CE can identify lesions in the upper gastrointestinal tract as well as in the small intestine. However, contrary to conventional oesophagogastroscopy ...

abstract：:The surface epithelial cells of the gastroduodenal mucosa are thought to be protected from the damaging effects of acid by a covering layer of mucus into which is secreted bicarbonate. It is proposed here that mucus acts as a true barrier to hydrogen ion diffusion, and that the role played by bicarbonate is to adjust ...
