These ants are ballooning with microbe-killing honey
Buried deep underneath the red, sunbaked soil of Australia’s deserts are hidden treasure troves of honey. It’s not the delicacy produced by bees, but rather the only type of honey made by ants. It’s also, a new study confirms, a potentially powerful medicine with antimicrobial properties. Australia’s Indigenous peoples have long used honey from honeypot ants ( Camponotus inflatus ) to treat a variety of maladies, from sore throats to infected wounds. Now, Western scientists are finally getting up to speed. In a study published today in PeerJ , researchers show that the honeypot ant’s honey has...

Prospective study of an amino acid-based elemental diet in an eosinophilic gastritis and gastroenteritis nutrition trial
CONCLUSION: An amino acid-based elemental diet improves histologic, endoscopic, symptomatic, quality-of-life, and molecular parameters of EoG/EoGE; these findings and disease recurrence with food trigger reintroduction support a dominant role for food allergens in disease pathogenesis.CLINICALTRIALS: gov Identifier: NCT03320369.PMID:37462600 | DOI:10.1016/j.jaci.2023.05.024

Gastrointestinal tract and viral pathogens
World J Virol. 2023 Jun 25;12(3):136-150. doi: 10.5501/wjv.v12.i3.136.ABSTRACTViral gastroenteritis is the most common viral illness that affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, causing inflammation and irritation of the lining of the stomach and intestines. Common signs and symptoms associated with this condition include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and dehydration. The infections commonly involved in viral gastroenteritis are rotavirus, norovirus, and adenovirus, which spread through the fecal-oral and contact routes and cause non-bloody diarrhea. These infections can affect both immunocompetent and immunocompromised indiv...

Clinical features analysis of Kawasaki disease with abdominal symptoms as the first manifestation
Conclusion: KD with gastrointestinal involvement is associated with a higher risk of IVIG unresponsiveness and coronary artery lesion. KD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children with acute fever, especially those with gastrointestinal involvement and liver dysfunction.What is Known:• Fever duration, PLT, and CRP were identified as risk factors for CAL. Timely diagnosis and application of IVIG treatment can avoid exploratory laparotomy for ileus, appendectomy for misdiagnosed appendicitis, colonoscopy for misdiagnosed inflammatory bowel disease, and reduce the complications o f CAL and IVIG unrespon...

Bilious Worm Emesis Secondary to Intestinal Helminthic Infection
A five-year-old male from West Virginia presented to the emergency department with abdominal pain and non-bilious emesis. Initial social history was unrevealing. Labs were significant for leukocytosis with neutrophilia. Early management included fluid resuscitation and inpatient observation for dehydration suspected secondary to viral gastroenteritis. On hospital day 1, the patient developed bilious emesis. An upper gastrointestinal radiographic series with small bowel follow through demonstrated delayed contrast passage through the duodenum.

Acute Abdominal Pain in Adults: Evaluation and Diagnosis
Am Fam Physician. 2023 Jun;107(6):585-596.ABSTRACTAcute abdominal pain, defined as nontraumatic abdominal pain lasting fewer than seven days, is a common presenting concern with a broad differential diagnosis. The most common causes are gastroenteritis and nonspecific abdominal pain, followed by cholelithiasis, urolithiasis, diverticulitis, and appendicitis. Extra-abdominal causes such as respiratory infections and abdominal wall pain should be considered. Pain location, history, and examination findings help guide the workup after ensuring hemodynamic stability. Recommended tests may include a complete blood count, C-reac...
