Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Jejunal Diseases:

1.	Complementary DNA (cDNA)IBA 05/01/2004 - "cDNA microarray analysis of gene expression in coeliac disease jejunal biopsy samples."
2.	Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (Tumor Necrosis Factor)IBA 01/01/2023 - "Growth impairment (FHt-Z < -1.0) was associated with surgery before menarche (P = 0.03), jejunal disease (P = 0.003), low mid-parental height z score (MPH-Z) (P < 0.001), hospitalization for CD (P = 0.03) but not UC, recurrent corticosteroid, or anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) therapy. "
3.	SteroidsIBA 07/01/2006 - "Heights were converted to SD scores and univariate analysis performed of factors postulated to influence final height, that is, interval from onset of symptoms to diagnosis, prepubertal onset of symptoms, gender, jejunal disease present at diagnosis, systemic steroid therapy, intestinal surgery, and midparental height SD scores. "
4.	Phenobarbital (Luminal)FDA Link 03/01/1994 - "Two cases of jejunal disease manifested as either a short or long segment of luminal narrowing with prominent mucosal nodularity. "
5.	HydrogenIBA 03/01/1983 - "Increased breath hydrogen excretion after glucose ingestion was recorded in 8 of 10 patients with jejunal disease only. "
6.	Glucose (Dextrose)FDA LinkGeneric 03/01/1983 - "Some overlap in bacterial numbers occurred between patients with jejunal disease, ileal disease, and healthy controls, whereas production of fermentation gas in anaerobic media supplemented with glucose occurred only in cultures from the patients with jejunal disease. " 03/01/1983 - "Increased breath hydrogen excretion after glucose ingestion was recorded in 8 of 10 patients with jejunal disease only. "
7.	Adrenal Cortex Hormones (Corticosteroids)IBA 01/01/2023 - "Growth impairment (FHt-Z < -1.0) was associated with surgery before menarche (P = 0.03), jejunal disease (P = 0.003), low mid-parental height z score (MPH-Z) (P < 0.001), hospitalization for CD (P = 0.03) but not UC, recurrent corticosteroid, or anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) therapy. "
8.	flunixinIBA 01/01/2005 - "Treatment of horses with ischaemic jejunal disease with flunixin may result in a prolonged permeability defect in recovering mucosa. "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Therapeutics 05/01/2023 - "Although, systemic therapy with TKI is the principal treatment for advance disease, Jejunal GIST should be removed surgically. " 07/01/2006 - "Heights were converted to SD scores and univariate analysis performed of factors postulated to influence final height, that is, interval from onset of symptoms to diagnosis, prepubertal onset of symptoms, gender, jejunal disease present at diagnosis, systemic steroid therapy, intestinal surgery, and midparental height SD scores. " 01/01/2023 - "Growth impairment (FHt-Z < -1.0) was associated with surgery before menarche (P = 0.03), jejunal disease (P = 0.003), low mid-parental height z score (MPH-Z) (P < 0.001), hospitalization for CD (P = 0.03) but not UC, recurrent corticosteroid, or anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) therapy. "
