This study analyzes storyline structure in three Hausa home videos; Mai Kudi (The Rich Man), Sanafahna (with time truth shall dawn) and Albashi (Salary). The study measures storyline structure in these films against a Hollywood film industry model of story writing “the Hero's Journey”. It uses narrative analysis as its analytical tool, and narrative theory as its framework. After analyzing these videos, the study found that the major elements of storyline structure in Vogler's model formed the framework of the storyline structure in Hausa home videos analyzed. However, in spite of the preponderance of these elements within the storyline structure, there are significant variations to Vogler's model. Specifically, Vogler's model has some twelve stages spread on the universal structure of storytelling, i.e. beginning, middle and end. Few of these stages were found to exist in Hausa narrative structure, perhaps due to cultural differences between Western, Indian and Hausa cultures. The study therefore recommends screenwriters and producers to be aware of the existence of standard models of scriptwriting. It also recommends more training for script writers in the Hausa film industry.
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) offers an effective interventional option for treating symptomatic chronic pancreatitis. Endoscopic pancreatic sphincterotomy is performed to facilitated endoscopic treatment. Pancreatic duct strictures can be treated by inserting plastic stents, and a 10 Fr endoprosthesis is adequate in many cases. Before stent insertion, hydrostatic balloon dilation is needed in some cases. Pancreatic stones can be removed with a dormia basket, but combining ERCP and extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) is often most effective.
Standard and advanced endoscopic treatment approaches are delineated in this article and include stricture dilation with a Soehendra retriever, cSEMS placement and multi-stenting.
Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy that is characterized by intraepithelial lymphocytosis, crypt hyperplasia, and villous atrophy. Prevalence is high and has been estimated to range between 0.5% and 1.5%. Capsule endoscopy (CE) has a sensitivity and specificity of approximately 90%. CD is an important differential diagnosis for diagnostic workup for anemia, malabsorption, or diarrhea, and must be recognized reliably by the investigator. Moreover, CE is the preferred method to screen for complications in CD, such as enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, ulcerative jejunitis, and small bowel adenocarcinoma.

Small bowel tumors are detected in approximately 10% of patients with small bowel endoscopies for obscure or overt mid-intestinal bleeding. Small bowel tumors may be of malignant or benign etiology. Malignant etiologies include adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine tumors, or lymphoma, whereas benign lesions are typically lipomas, inflammatory polyps, or adenomas. Within the group of nonneoplastic lesions inflammatory polyps are most frequent. Significant bleeding and bowel obstruction due to intussusception might occur, and surgical or endoscopic treatment has been reported for symptomatic patients. A case is demonstrated with an inflammatory fibroid polyp detected by capsule endoscopy and confirmed by balloon enteroscopy. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Peutz–Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited disorder characterized by gastrointestinal hamartomas, mucocutaneous pigmentation, and an elevated cancer risk. Moreover, intussusception risk may be as high as 50% at the age of 20 years and is caused by large polyps. There is some evidence that endoscopic surveillance of PJS patients with removal of small intestinal polyps with a diameter of more than 15 mm efficiently prevents intussusceptions. In recent years, capsule endoscopy (CE) has largely replaced small-bowel radiography techniques to screen for small-bowel polyps. Magnetic resonance imaging may be equally efficient as CE for screening of large polyps. Balloon enteroscopy may be used for endoscopic snare resection of polyps.

The small intestine is a part of the gastrointestinal tract in which digestion and absorption of nutrients takes place. The small bowel follows the stomach and is followed by the large intestine, reaching from the pylorus to the valve of Bauhin and is separated into the duodenum, the jejunum, and the ileum.
Capsule endoscopy (CE) has the potential to offer a perfect overview of the small-bowel mucosa and complete visualization of the entire small bowel is achieved in most cases. In this video, there is an overview offered on normal findings in small-bowel CE and typical anatomical landmarks are indicated. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
This is an example of capsule endoscopy (CE) revealing terminal ileitis in an young male patient with recurrent abdominal pain who had previously been investigated with colonoscopy and esophagogastroduodenoscopy without any significant findings. CE revealed severe inflammation of the terminal ileum. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Small bowel varices may be found in less than 5% of patients with suspected small bowel bleeding. These varices are associated with portal hypertension or thrombosis of mesenteric venous vessels and with altered abdominal vascular anatomy with or without prior small bowel surgery. In bleeding small bowel varices, therapeutic options include endoscopic injection of tissue adhesives, endovascular approaches such as balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous or percutaneous obliteration and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, and surgical resection. This is a case report of a 53-year-old patient with ethylic liver cirrhosis who presented with severe, life-threatening hematochezia due to small bowel varices.

Small-bowel tumors are rare and account for approximately 5% of all gastrointestinal tumors. Approximately 65% of small-bowel tumors are malignant, and approximately 40% of these tumors are adenocarcinomas. Similar to colorectal adenocarcinoma, premalignant adenomas of the small bowel may progress to carcinoma. This occurs both sporadically and in the context of hereditary tumor syndromes such as familial adenomatous polyposis or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome). Herein cases with small-bowel adenocarcinomas visualized with both capsule endoscopy and double-balloon enteroscopy are presented. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
The author presents the case of a patient with severe bleeding from a duodenal ulcer that could not be controlled by endoscopic application of metal clips and injection of fibrin glue. Angiographic embolization with placement of coils into the feeding vessel stopped the bleeding. However, 3 days later, a fistula emerged from coil material penetrating into the dorsal duodenum and a peritoneal leakage developed. The fistula was completely closed by placing an over-the-scope clip on the enteral opening of the fistula. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Here the authors report the case of an elderly woman who had upper abdominal pain, upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and jaundice (a symptomatic triad termed the ‘Quincke’ triad) a few days after endoscopic sphincterotomy. Abdominal ultrasonography demonstrated an echo-rich filling of the choledochus consistent with hemobilia. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography was immediately performed and blood clots were removed from the common bile duct. A nasobiliary catheter was placed to irrigate the bile duct for prevention of recurring obstruction of the bile ducts from blood clots. Further follow-up of the patient was uneventful.

Operatively altered anatomy might provide a challenge for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. However, with the support of the balloon-assisted enteroscopy technique the access route to the biliary system even in long-limb Roux-Y anastomosis is feasible in most cases.
In this video case report, an 81-year-old woman was symptomatic for stone obstruction of the common bile duct (CBD). Complete gastrectomy had been performed in this patient for stomach cancer many years earlier. Balloon-assisted enteroscopy was used for retrograde access of the duodenum via a Roux-Y anastomosis. There was major difficulty in intubating the CBD via the native papilla in this case because access was prevented by the tangential approach of the enteroscope. After performing an incomplete papillectomy, the insertion of a guidewire into the CBD was feasible and the bile duct stone was removed. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Small bowel endoscopy is indicated for patients with an unidentified bleeding site in esophago-gastro-duodenoscopy and ileo-colonoscopy and symptoms of intestinal blood loss or unexplained anemia. In approximately two-thirds of these cases, capsule endoscopy (CE) detects a lesion within the small bowel that explains the patient's symptoms. In few cases, though, lesions outside of the small bowel might be revealed by CE. Therefore, attention to all intestines that are visualized by CE might be necessary not to overlook bleeding sites that had not been discovered by prior flexible endoscopy.
The authors present the case of a 71-year-old male patient who presented to their outpatient clinic for unexplained anemia. Small bowel CE revealed minor bleeding from an adenocarcinoma in the cecum. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.

Here the case of a 71-year-old male patient with unexplained anemia is presented by the authors. Small-bowel CE revealed minor bleeding from a neoplastic mass in the cecum. The final diagnosis of an adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon was established after the patient underwent a right hemicolectomy. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Stent insertion is an established technique of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to treat symptomatic malignant or benign biliary strictures, and stent placement is accomplished by using the over-the-wire (OTW) method. In some cases, however, it might be challenging and sometimes time consuming to pass a complex biliary stricture with the guidewire. Stent-exchange technique with a guidewire left in place during stent removal might therefore be helpful to guarantee successful and time-sparing interventions.
A simple method is presented to remove the stent with the guidewire left in place, using the OTW stent-exchange method in ERCP. This technique simplifies stent OTW exchange by using a simple endoscopy snare. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
Der Beitrag widmet sich der Textsorte Videoblog und der Art und Weise, wie YouTuber in ihren Videoblogs und Texten ähnlicher Form mit ihren Rezipienten kommunizieren. Nach einer kurzen Vorstellung der Text-sorte Videoblog wird bei der Analyse von der Makrostruktur der Beiträge ausgegangen, wobei die typischen Eigenschaften der sprachlichen Elemente in den einzelnen Phasen der Beiträge betrachtet werden. Dazu wird ein Korpus von Videoblogs in der deutschen und in der tschechischen Sprache verwendet.
In Sir James Frazers berühmten Buch “Der Goldene Zweig” von 1890, das großen Einfluß nicht nur auf die nachfolgende Generation von Ethnologen nahm, sondern auch Schriftsteller und Philosophen wie R. Kipling, Ezra Pound, D.H. Lawrence, T.S. Eliot, L. Wittgenstein und nicht zuletzt S. Freud nachhaltig beeindruckte, ist viel von Seele die Rede. In wahrhaft wilder Reihung, auf der ganzen Erde hin -und herspringend, beschreibt Frazer vor allem in dem Kapitel “Gefahren der Seele” die Seelenvorstellungen der “Wilden” in immer neuen Variationen: Die Seele als dickes, dünnes, leichtes oder schweres Männchen oder Zwerg; die Seele als Schatten, Bild oder Widerschein sowie als Teil der Person, der auch abwesend sein, verloren oder geraubt werden kann.
Geistbesessenheit ist eine Körpertechnik, die es Frauen und Männern erlaubt, sich in Geister oder Gottheiten zu verwandeln und dadurch eine fremde Macht zu erlangen. Als Verwandelte können sie wahrsagen – “fernsehen” und “fernhören” – sowie heilen oder schaden. Verwandlung ist hier also mit Wissen und Ermächtigung verbunden. Während in westlichen Kulturen vor dem Hintergrund der Institutionen Staat, Kirche und Markt eine Politik der Identität etabliert wurde, die die Adressierbarkeit, Verantwortung und Kontrolle von Individuen festigte und Praktiken der Verwandlung eher marginalisierte, haben diese in Afrika eine lange Kontinuität und gewannen gerade in postkolonialer Zeit insbesondere im christlichen Kontext und durch die Einführung neuer technischer Medien stark an Bedeutung. Ich möchte im Folgenden die Verwandlung von Frauen und Männern in Geister in zwei verschiedenen Medien untersuchen: Zum einen im menschlichen Körper, im Körper eines Mediums, einer Frau oder eines Mannes, in dem sich der Geist vergegenwärtigt; und zum anderen in einem technischen Medium, in populären Videos, die seit den 1980er Jahren in Ghana und Nigeria produziert werden. Während Videomacher im christlichen Kontext in gewisser Weise die Nachfolge von Geistmedien antreten, werden Geister und andere okkulte Mächte in den Videos auf völlig neue Art visualisiert. Es geht also zum einen um mediale Kontinuität und Anschlussfähigkeit und zum anderen um mediale Differenz. Außerdem möchte ich versuchen, die unterschiedlichen Ordnungen von Wahrheit und Sichtbarkeit, in denen sich die Verwandlung in Geister in den beiden Medien vollzieht, näher zu bestimmen.
In den letzten fünfzehn Jahren haben im postkolonialen Afrika okkulte Mächte – Geister, Hexen, Zauberer und Kannibalen – an Realität und Macht gewonnen. Diese Renaissance okkulter Mächte steht im globalen Kontext einer allgemeineren “Rückkehr des Religiösen” (de Vries und Weber 2001). Wie in Afrika, so findet auch in den USA und anderen Teilen der Welt eine “Fundamentalisierung” nicht nur des Islam, sondern auch des Christentums statt. Politische Theologien bilden sich heraus, die die Trennung von Politik und Religion aufzuheben suchen und bestreiten, daß Religion vor allem eine Privatangelegenheit ist (Derrida 2001).
Der Dokumentarfilm befand sich Ende der 70er Jahre in einer gewissen Stagnation. Selbst in einer internen Schrift der Hauptverwaltung Film/ Abt. Wissenschaft - und diese kritische Bemerkung deckt sich mit vielen Stimmen der anläßlich des 40. Leipziger Dokfilm-Festivals herausgegebenen Textsammlung "Weiße Taube auf dunklem Grund" - wurden künstlerische Defizite zugestanden: "Trotz der Anwendung neuer Techniken sind weiterhin keine Entwicklungsperspektiven der Gattung Dokumentarfilm zu erkennen. In seinen besten Erscheinungsformen hat sich das auf der Ebene von gutem Journalismus, soziologischer Sondierungen, politischer Kommentare oder poetischer Reflexionen stabilisiert [...] Der Dokumentarfilm wartet auf einen neuen Pionier, der es vermag, frische und interessante Visionen der Welt, in der wir leben, zu geben."
