まとめ

スマートフォンをトイレで使うとのリスクが高まりますこの研究ではスマートフォンを使用する人のリスクが 46%増加することが示され長期間のトイレ利用がの発症に寄与することを示唆しています

科学分野:

胃腸内科
公衆衛生

背景:

スマートフォンは広く使用され,トイレに行くときに多くの個人がそれを使用しています.
冗談的な証拠から長期のトイレ利用はのリスクを高めると示唆されていますがスマートフォンの使用は分析されていません

研究の目的:

スマートフォンのトイレ利用との流行の関連性を調べる
排泄中のスマートフォンの使用がヘモロイドの独立リスク要因であるかどうかを判断するためです

主な方法:

スクリーニング用結腸鏡検査を受ける125人の成人の患者を対象とした横断試験です.
参加者はスマホの使い方,トイレの時間,運動量,繊維の摂取量,運動量に関する調査を完了しました.
ヘモロイドの存在は,盲目の内視鏡検査で評価された.

主要な成果:

参加者の43%がを患い,66%がトイレでスマートフォンを使っていました.
スマートフォンの利用者は若くトイレで過ごす時間は大きく増加しました
多変量分析により,トイレでのスマートフォンの使用は,出血のリスクの46%増加と関連していることが示されました (p=0.044).

結論:

長期にわたるスマートフォンの使用はの罹患率の増加と関連しています
スマートフォンの使用を制限することでトイレの時間を減らすことでのリスクを軽減できます

Assessment of the Rectum and Anus

399

Evaluating the rectum and anus plays a crucial role in conducting a thorough physical examination of the gastrointestinal system. Although it may be uncomfortable and often embarrassing for the patient, it holds immense diagnostic value, particularly in detecting gastrointestinal diseases and abnormalities. This guide will explain how to perform this assessment using inspection and palpation methods.
Rectal Inspection
Begin by inspecting the perianal and anal areas for color, texture, rashes,...

Drugs Affecting GI Tract Motility: Opioids as Antidiarrheal Agents

323

Diarrhea, a condition marked by frequent loose or watery bowel movements, can be triggered by multiple factors such as viral or bacterial infections, food intolerances, anxiety, medications, and digestive disorders. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, and cramping. Severe or prolonged diarrhea can lead to complications like electrolyte imbalances, malnutrition, and dehydration if left untreated.
Opioids, widely used antidiarrheal agents, mitigate diarrhea by slowing down...

Drugs for Treatment of Diarrhea-Predominant IBS

292

Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) is a subtype of IBS characterized primarily by frequent, loose, or watery stools, abdominal pain, and abdominal discomfort. Therapeutic approaches to managing IBS-D include dietary changes, stress management techniques, and pharmaceutical interventions.
Two specific drugs used in the treatment are alosetron (Lotronex) and eluxadoline (Viberzi). Alosetron, a 5-HT3 antagonist, works by slowing the movement of stools in the gut, reducing bowel...

Diarrhea is characterized by the occurrence of frequent, watery bowel movements. Various factors can trigger diarrhea, including viral or bacterial infections, foodborne illnesses, side effects from certain medications, and underlying digestive disorders. If not adequately managed, diarrhea can lead to complications such as dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies. Severe diarrhea can lead to significant weight loss, malnutrition, and weakened immune function.

Drugs Affecting GI Tract Motility: Antimicrobials as Antidiarrheal Agents

201

Acute diarrhea, a common gastrointestinal disturbance, is characterized by the rapid evacuation of fluid stools, leading to an excessive weight in fluid. This condition typically arises from disorders affecting intestinal water and electrolyte transport. It can be triggered by an increased osmotic load within the intestine, excessive secretion of electrolytes and water, mucosal exudation of protein and fluid, or altered intestinal motility. The primary risks of acute diarrhea are dehydration...

Assessing Body Temperature - Rectal

6.3K

Rectal temperature measurement is considered the most precise method for assessing core body temperature and typically registers higher than oral temperature. For adults, the rectal thermometer should be inserted 1 to 1.5 inches into the rectum to obtain the most accurate reading.
Follow these steps for rectal temperature assessment:
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don clean gloves to prevent cross-infection.
Step 2: Position the patient in a side-lying position to better visualize the rectal...
