New diagnostic method th detect peritoneal metastases in colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer is the third common reason of death in population worldwide therefore we will focus in our study about description of this type of cancer and its symptoms to raise the public awareness to go to the right specialist as soon as the symptoms appear to improve early detection of this disease and the overall survival and we will highlight the best diet and life style to avoid this type of cancer hopefully beside that we will present all the most successful therapies of this disease from different classes of compounds such as chemotherapy or anti angiogenic and Metformin and other bacterial therapy however the major goal of the experimental part of this research is performed to establish a new promising diagnostic tool by Near Infra-red camera after injection of indyocine green to detection the peritoneal metastasis of colorectal in 15 patients since this kind of metastasis
Irritable Bowel syndrome I.B.S
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder with a range of symptoms that significantly affect quality of life for patients. Is currently one of the most common disorders of the digestive system in the Western society?

The difficulty of differential diagnosis and its treatment may significantly delay initiation of optimal therapy. Hence, persons with IBS often self-treat symptoms with non-prescribed pharmacological regimens and/or complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) and by modifying diet and daily activities.
GI Microbiota and Regulation of the Immune System
This book opens with two general reference chapters, which provide an over-view of current knowledge of gastrointestinal immunology and the commensal microbiology of the gut. Next are two chapters dedicated to current methodologies used to investigate the icrobiota and host: molecular analysis of microbial diver-sity and gnotobiotic research. Both positive and negative interactions between the microbiota and the immune system can take place in the gut, with chapters dedicated to probiotics and intestinal diseases associated with unhealthy rnicrobiota.
Gastrointestinal Tract Sonography in Fetus and in Children
Sonography of the gastrointestinal tract in fetuses, neonates and children entails no known biological risk, permits serial scanning and can provide information unobtainable with any other imaging modality. In experienced hands it can be used as the initial imaging technique in a number of gastrointestinal diseases and conditions. This book provides a comprehensive account of the current state of the art regarding sonography in this context.
Gastroesophagal reflux disease (GERD)
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disease with a high prevalence worldwide and a great socioeconomic burden. GERD is a multifactorial disease in which anatomical and functional factors both play a pathogenetic role. The disease can manifest in various symptoms which can be grouped into typical, atypical and extra-esophageal symptoms. The pathophysiology of GERD is complex and not completely understood. An abnormal LES pressure and increased reflux during transient LES relaxations are believed to be key etiologic factors. Prolonged exposure of the esophagus to acid is another. Heartburn and acid regurgitation are the most common symptoms of GERD, although pathologic reflux can result in a wide variety of clinical presentations.

Large intestine disorders
An overview of Advanced and supplemental topics related to physiology and pathophysiology of the large intestine. the large intestine, is part of digestive system. It's a long, hollow tube at the end of the digestive tract where body makes and stores stool. Many disorders affect the colon's ability to work properly. We mention the most important diseases of the large intestine and more of complications and risk factor with the standard treatments.
Applications of functional foods in disease prevention
Functional food sources are growing in popularity because they are exceptionally nutritious and provide amazing medical advantages. They can help ensure against infection, prevent supplement deficiency, and advance appropriate health development and improvement. With illustrative case studies, this new volume explores the many roles of functional foods in the prevention and management of various diseases, including diabetes, autism spectrum disorder, weight loss and obesity, microbial infections, ulcers and other gastrointestinal diseases, mental disorders and brain health, cardiac health and cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis and bone health, and more.
