Histopathological Analysis of Esophageal Mucosa in Patients with Achalasia

Gut and Liver, 2021
Background/Aims: Achalasia is an esophageal motor disorder that leads to functional esophageal obstruction. Food stasis and bacterial fermentation can predispose an individual to esophageal mucosal inflammation, causing multifocal dysplasia and ...

Enteric neuropathy and the vagus nerve: Therapeutic implications

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 37, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Enteric neuropathies are characterized by abnormalities of gut innervation, which includes the enteric nervous system, inducing severe gut dysmotility among other dysfunctions. Most of the gastrointestinal tract is innervated by the vagus nerve, the efferent branches of which have close interconnections with the enteric nervous system and ...

The Milan Score Predicts Objective Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Patients With Type 2 Esophagogastric Junction

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The novel manometric parameter Milan Score could be useful in predicting which patients with type 2 EGJ have a high likelihood of objective GERD, therefore discriminating which patients may need escalation of GERD investigation and management. ABSTRACT Introduction High‐resolution manometry (HRM) allows assessment of esophagogastric junction (EGJ ...

The Milan Score is an Effective Manometric Tool to Predict Gastroesophageal Reflux in Patients With Laryngopharyngeal Symptoms

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
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.

The Association of Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and Neurogastroenterology Disorders (Including Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction [DGBI]): A Scoping Review

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
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

Smooth muscle fascicular reorientation is required for esophageal morphogenesis and dependent on Cdo. [PDF]

, 2013
Postnatal maturation of esophageal musculature involves proximal-to-distal replacement of smooth muscle with skeletal muscle by elusive mechanisms. We report that this process is impaired in mice lacking the cell surface receptor Cdo and identify the ...

Advances in the Diagnosis and Management of Achalasia and Achalasia-Like Syndromes: Insights From HRM and FLIP

Gastro Hep Advances, 2023
High-resolution manometry, Chicago Classification v4.0, the functional lumen imaging probe, Panometry, and per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) are all now integral parts of the landscape for managing achalasia or, more precisely, achalasia-like syndromes.
