GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

5 Of The Worst Convenience Holiday Foods And How To Avoid
Them
by Bo nnie | Pro venNutritio nFo rKids edit
T he holiday season is upon us, and all the grocery stores are lined with their special displays of the most
popular holiday f oods. You’ve probably already been by the holiday baking display or the dress-your-turkey
shelves of canned goods and boxed potatoes.
Upon a closer look, though, many of these “convenience” f oods turn out to be not-so-convenient f or our
f amily’s health. In f act, we end up paying a very high price f or the convenience of certain holiday f oods.
So, while we were out shopping the other day, I decided to investigate several of these popular holiday picks.
(My kids were a bit embarrassed by my f ood photography, but hey, it’s worth it if I can help our readers be more
nutrition-savvy!)
I came up with my top f ive most nutrient-def icient unnatural holiday f oods and how you can avoid them this
holiday season.
Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce
I originally didn’t think this one would make my list of f ive, but
when I noticed the sugars, I knew it needed to be here. A mere
1/4 cup of this yields 24 grams of sugar in the f orms of high
f ructose corn syrup and corn syrup. In f act, over 87% of the
calories in this sauce come f rom sugars alone! Just one
serving of this meets your child’s daily limit f or added
sugars. Ugh.
Indeed, cranberries themselves are packed with antioxidants,
vitamins, f iber, and phytochemicals, but unf ortunately, this
can has very little in there. It’s better f or your f amily to make a
f resh cranberry sauce f rom scratch, where you can control
the type and amount of sugar you add. T his way you’re also
guaranteed to retain all of the cranberry’s nutritious health
benef its.
The Swap —> Mart ha St ewart ’s Basic Cranberry Sauce
(Be sure to read the reviews on this too if you’re still on the f ence.)
Pillsbury Moist Supreme Yellow Cake Mix
2. Ever since I’ve started cooking things f rom scratch, I have
of ten wondered why I ever used to buy the boxed cake mixes.
T hey really represent f ood marketing at its best because
they provide the illusion that you are actually saving a ton of
time. In reality, the boxed mix saves you maybe 10 minutes of
time and you get the added deliciousness of 18 extra
ingredients that your body (and your cake) doesn’t need.
It’s true that our homemade version will give you more sugar
per serving…but then you have the f reedom to change this
amount–something you can’t do with the box.
The Swap —> Bet t er Homes & Gardens Basic
Yellow Cake Mix
Heinz Homestyle Roasted Turkey Gravy
T his holiday f ood is super convenient, especially if you’re not
planning to roast your own turkey. However, when you look at
the ingredients, you might think twice about how you prepare
your T hanksgiving meal. T he Heinz version is comprised
mostly of turkey broth, modif ied corn starch, and chicken f at.
T he other 26 ingredients are listed in the “less than 2%”
category.
When I was growing up, my mom always made her own pan
gravy f rom the drippings of the roasted turkey. I used to think
it was a really involved process, until I tried it on my own the
f irst time. I remember getting the how-to over the phone with
my mom, and asking, “Is that it?” It seemed too easy to taste
so good. It was indeed that easy, and your body won’t miss

Pillsbury Ref rigerated Pie Crusts
Compared to its homemade counterpart, it has 300% more ingredients
and is loaded with extra stuf f that your body does not need, nor can it
use. T hese extra ingredients include chemical preservatives and
artif icial colors…Why does a pie crust need added coloring anyway?
Our homemade crust that uses real butter may have more f at per
serving; however, it is a much better f orm of f at than the trans f at in
this one. (And yes, though the trans f at on the box says “0 g”, you
have to look closer at the ingredients f or the “partially hydrogenated.”
Food manuf acturers are not required to list the trans f at if it comes to
less than 1 g per serving. Even that small amount is still NOT benef icial
nor recommended.)
3. Are these boxed pie crusts convenient? You bet. But when it only takes
about 20 minutes longer to put together a much healthier one f rom
scratch (not to mention, a much tastier one too), you have to ask
yourself if the time you’re saving is really worth it. Serve your kids the
real deal this holiday with our Butter Flaky Pie Crust Recipe, and leave
the partially hydrogenated lard of f the table.

Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting
Compared to our homemade butter cream icing, the
Betty Crocker version has 5 times as many ingredients
and more than 87% of them are totally unnecessary.
Why do we do this to our bodies?
Just two tablespoons of this stuf f delivers more than
two day’s worth of the upper limit of dangerous trans
f ats, according to the American Heart Association.
“The American Heart Association recommends
limiting the amount of trans fats you eat to less
than 1 percent of your total daily calories. That
means if you need 2,000 calories a day, no more
than 20 of those calories should come from trans
fats. That’s less than 2 grams of trans fats a day.
Given the amount of naturally occurring trans
fats you probably eat every day, this leaves
virtually no room at all for industrially
manufactured trans fats.” – American Heart
Association
And how many of us really consume only two
tablespoons on a single piece of cake?
