Clinical Relationship between Steatocholecystitis and Gallbladder Contractility Measured by Cholescintigraphy
Objective. Contractility of gallbladder is known to be decreased in fatty gallbladder diseases. However, clinical estimation data about this relationship is still lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between steatocholecystitis and contractility of gallbladder. Methods. Patients with cholecystitis (steatocholecystitis versus nonsteatocholecystitis) who underwent cho...
متن کاملDifferential gallbladder contractility in fundal adenomyomatosis: demonstration by cholecystokinin cholescintigraphy.
The cholecystokinin cholescintigraphic findings of fundal adenomyomatosis in a 29-yr-old male with severe post-prandial pain are presented. Planar cholescintigraphy demonstrated a trilobed gallbladder contour. Following the administration of 0.02 micrograms/kg of cholecystokinin at maximal gallbladder filling, fundal dyskinesia was observed. Regional gallbladder ejection fractions were: whole g...
متن کاملImpaired fatty-meaktimulated gallbladder contractility in patients with Crohn’s disease
1. The incidence of gallstones in patients with Crohn’s disease is increased compared with that in healthy control subjects. This is in part due to reduced terminal ileal bile salt absorption and consequent increased cholesterol saturation in bile. The aim of this study was to evaluate gallbladder contractility, a second important factor in the pathogenesis of gallstones, in Crohn’s disease. 2....

متن کاملIn-vivo angiogenesis and progestogens.
BACKGROUND Progestogens are used clinically for contraception, to control excessive menstrual bleeding, and to prevent estrogen-induced endometrial hyperplasia. A significant problem with progestogen-only methods of contraception is the induction of breakthrough bleeding. METHODS The effects of different progestogens on angiogenesis were examined using two approaches. The mouse sponge angioge...
