Hepatobiliary Diseases
The last few years have witnessed major developments in molecular biology which have had a significant impact on biomedical knowledge. As a result new concepts in cell biology have emerged, new etiologic agents have been discovered, and new drugs have become available. Furthermore, the world of mediators, cytokines, and humoral factors has enlarged considerably in a relatively short period and this has modified our views of diverse physio pathologic processes as well as opened up new therapeutic prospects. In addition, recent technologic advances have revolutionized our diagnostic methodology and have greatly enhanced the power of our therapeutic resources. All these factors have contributed...
Homenaje a Juan Rodés
Juan Rodés era una persona modesta, sencilla y amable, además de un gran médico, cuya vocación fue la ciencia y la medicina. Muy querido también por sus pacientes, el doctor Rodés fue un auténtico visionario y un verdadero líder: cambió la estructura del Hospital Clínic de Barcelona y creó su Unidad de Hepatología, ordenó y potenció la investigación biomédica, creó la Fundación Clínic y el IDIBAPS y prestigió la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Barcelona. Rodés fue, por otra parte, «el asesor confiable» de innumerables organismos públicos y privados. En este libro se recogen 50 testimonios —unos más institucionales, otros más personales— tanto de su vida como de su obra. Para todos los que hemos tenido el honor y el privilegio de conocer y tratar a Juan Rodés, este no es sino un sencillo y merecido homenaje: disfrutó de la vida y de las muchas artes que la configuran, fue respetado mientras vivió y será recordado con gran estima de ahora en adelante.

The Enteric Microbiota
The human gut is the natural habitat for a diverse and dynamic microbial ecosystem having an important impact on health and disease. Bacteria have lived in and on animal hosts since multicellular life evolved about 1 billion years ago. Hosts provide habitat and nutrition to the microbial communities and derive many benefits from their guests that contribute with metabolic (recovery of energy and nutrients), defensive (barrier effect against invaders) and trophic (immune regulation, neuro-endocrine development) functions. Several disease states or disorders have been associated with changes in the composition or function of the enteric microbiota, including inflammatory bowel diseases, obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Probiotics and prebiotics can be used to improve symbiosis between enteric microbiota and host, or correct states of dysbiosis.
