Mumps is an infectious disease.

We're treating cancer almost like it's an infectious disease.

Rocky Mountain spotted fever remains a serious and potentially life threatening infectious disease.

The bacterium then releases the toxin into the intestine, which is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Inflammatory bowel disease resulted in 35,000 deaths in 2010 and those with Crohn's disease have a slightly reduced life expectancy.

Back then in the early 1930 s there was no vaccine for this highly infectious disease.

Before the introduction of vaccines, the only way people became immune to an infectious disease was by actually getting the disease and surviving it.

Doctors could not agree whether the illness was a consequence of hepatitis, pneumonia, disease in the liver, lungs, intestines or something else.

The common cold (also known as nasopharyngitis, rhinopharyngitis, acute coryza, head cold, or simply a cold) is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract which primarily affects the nose.

People with milder coeliac disease may have symptoms that are much more subtle and occur in other organs than the bowel itself.

Hepatitis C is an infectious disease affecting primarily the liver, caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV).

Hepatitis B is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) which affects the liver.

And so that's the basic thing doctors are trained to do, and it's miraculous in the case of infectious disease how well it works.

Colectomy (partial or total removal of the large bowel through surgery) is occasionally necessary if the disease is severe, does not respond to treatment, or if significant complications develop.

Long standing and untreated disease may lead to other complications, such as ulcerative jejunitis (ulcer formation of the small bowel) and stricturing (narrowing as a result of scarring with obstruction of the bowel).

There is dispute about the cause of Beethoven's death alcoholic cirrhosis, syphilis, infectious hepatitis, lead poisoning, sarcoidosis and Whipple's disease have all been proposed.

The disease was named after gastroenterologist Burrill Bernard Crohn, who, in 1932, together with two other colleagues at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, described a series of patients with inflammation of the terminal ileum of the small intestine, the area most commonly affected by the illness.

In fish, the divisions of the small intestine are not as clear, and the terms anterior intestine or proximal intestine may be used instead of duodenum.

In fish, the divisions of the small intestine are not as clear and the terms posterior intestine or distal intestine may be used instead of ileum.

For any other infectious disease or global health threat, achieving this kind of reduction in incidence rate and mortality would be nothing short of miraculous.

Coeliac disease leads to an increased risk of both adenocarcinoma and lymphoma of the small bowel (enteropathy associated T cell lymphoma (EATL) or other non Hodgkin's lymphomas).

When the mRNA transcript only encodes one gene, it is monocistronic .

The eggs hatch in the intestines, burrow through the gut wall, and migrate to the lungs via the blood.

In the last century that's the one that was seven years ago half a billion people died from smallpox more than all the wars in history, more than any other infectious disease in the history of the world.

A more controversial area is a group of diseases in which antigliadin antibodies (an older and nonspecific test for coeliac disease) are sometimes detected but no small bowel disease can be demonstrated.

Yesterday, Amory Lovins spoke about infectious repititis.

Some food material is passed from the small intestine to the large intestine.

The small intestine (or small bowel) is the part of the GI tract following the stomach and followed by the large intestine, and is where much of the digestion and absorption of food takes place.

A pandemic (from Greek πᾶν pan all and δῆμος demos people ) is an epidemic of infectious disease that has spread through human populations across a large region for instance multiple continents, or even worldwide.

Structure Development The cecum and appendix are formed by the enlargement of the postarterial segment of the midgut loop.The proximal part of the bud grows rapidly to form the cecum.

The jejunum is the midsection of the small intestine, connecting the duodenum to the ileum.

It was then introduced as a treatment in Wilson's disease, a hereditary copper metabolism disorder in humans it acts both by competing with copper absorption in the bowel and by increasing excretion.

Heribert Watzke The brain in your gut

No mouth, no gut, no digestive system.

(2004) Sabiston Textbook of Surgery, Elsevier ISBN 0 7216 0409 9

But it shrunk to 60 percent of primate gut of my body mass.

And we also found bacteria that normally inhabit the gut.

Now how did the gut actually participate in this development?

The salivary glands and midgut secrete digestive enzymes.

Thorpe's illness was later diagnosed as a strain of glandular fever, and after a further delay caused by a broken hand, he moved to the United States in July to work with Dave Salo.

The trunk is the longest part of the animal.

Now if you think about the gut, the gut is if you could stretch it 40 meters long, the length of a tennis court.

We're going to reprogram the bacteria in your gut, and we're going to make your poo smell like peppermint.

Instead of having the evaginations of the small intestine (villi), the large intestine has invaginations (the intestinal glands).

The brain could grow, but the gut actually shrunk.
