This study investigated how thickened fluids impact pathological swallowing. Hydrocolloid solutions with divergent rheological profiles were evaluated using Pharyngeal HRM‐Impedance. The study revealed that the swallow response was linked to the shear viscosity and not the thickness level assessed by an empirical flow test.

ABSTRACT Background The scales used to assess disordered eating are often not validated in adults living with gastrointestinal conditions (i.e., gastrointestinal populations). This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to examine the psychometric evaluations (i.e., assessments of reliability and validity) of disordered eating scales in adult ...

Patients with isolated LPS demonstrated a lower likelihood of EGJ disruption, pathologic GERD, and abnormal Milan score. The Milan score performed similarly well in the identification of GERD in both LPS and typical symptoms. The Milan score could therefore be used as an upfront test in LPS patients.

ACHALASIA TREATMENT IMPROVES SPECIFIC SYMPTOMS AND QUALITY OF LIFE: VALIDATION OF AN ACHALASIA SPECIFIC QUALITY OF LIFE QUESTIONNAIRE [PDF]
Background and aim: Therapies for achalasia aim to patients’ symptom relief, but they affect patient’s quality of life (QoL), too. An ad hoc question- naire evaluating both achalasia-related symptoms and disease related QoL is lacking. Aim: To validate a

Endoscopic Prediction of Achalasia: Putting the CART Before the CARS
The novel endoscopic scoring system, the CARS score, demonstrated exceptionally high diagnostic specificity in differentiating patients with achalasia. A classification tree model incorporating the CARS score and hernia presence provides a step‐wise framework for interpreting the endoscopic probability of achalasia.

This scoping review found that avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) symptoms are highly prevalent in neurogastroenterology disorders such as disorders of gut–brain interaction (DGBI), and vice versa. Patients with an ARFID‐neurogastroenterology disorder overlap were found to have higher anxiety and depression levels, and a lower quality of

Spastic and hypercontractile esophageal motor disorders can cause retrosternal pain and/or dysphagia but may be missed by short‐term high resolution manometry (HRM). 24‐h‐HRM detected considerable circadian variability of esophageal contractility and markedly increased the percentage of patients diagnosed with a major motor disorder.
