Gastroenterology Research

KEY FINDING: Gut microbiota of all participants were dominated by Blautia, Bifidobacterium, Faecalibacterium and Ruminococcus.

KEY FINDING: The morphological feature of the stool showed a statistically significant difference after PF administration.

KEY FINDING: EA shortened the stool efflux time and increased the dry fecal weight within 24 h in SCI rats, indicating improved intestinal transmission function.

KEY FINDING: Methods used to manage neurogenic bowel and bladder are multifaceted, with consistency in some areas but significant variations based on neurological status and quality of life.

KEY FINDING: S2 root is the most dominant contributor to rectal pressure in dogs, according to the study.

KEY FINDING: No statistically significant differences were found in satisfaction or quality of life between veterans with colostomies and those with traditional bowel care programs.

KEY FINDING: Publication of the CPG alone did not alter provider adherence rates.

KEY FINDING: SCS applied to L2-L3 spinal segments significantly reduced the excitatory responses of L6-S2 neurons to noxious colorectal distension.

KEY FINDING: High amplitude propagating contractions (HAPC) were absent in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) during pre-sleep, sleep, and post-sleep phases.

KEY FINDING: Determination of neurologic level of injury alone is insufficient for assessing autonomic function; surrogate markers are necessary.
