2002-2003 Series: Update Sessions from ACPASIM's 2002 Annual Session
David A. Cramer, MD, and Paul T. Kefalides, MD, Co-Editors
This Update summarizes important advances reported in the past 2 years on the management of digestive disorders. I discuss clinical problems that practicing internists commonly encounter and cover new developments in areas frequently discussed in the gastroenterology literature. I have divided the Update into sections on gastroesophageal reflux disease, Helicobacter pylori infection, infectious diarrhea, colorectal cancer screening, gastrointestinal bleeding, and inflammatory bowel disease.
The following study of the pathophysiology of the gastroesophageal junction explains in part why the junction is so susceptible to injury and why symptoms of acid injury occur after a meal when food buffers gastric acid.
