ABSTRACT Objectives The endoscopic pressure study integrated system (EPSIS) is a novel functional endoscopic modality that records intragastric pressure (IGP) waveforms during CO2 insufflation to evaluate lower esophageal sphincter (LES) function and diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in atrophic gastritis
Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is a major human pathogen causing chronic, progressive gastric mucosal damage and is linked to gastric atrophy and cancer. Hp-positive individuals constitute the major reservoir for transmission of infection.

ABSTRACT Ulcerative colitis (UC) predominantly affects the colon; upper gastrointestinal involvement (UGI) has been reported, but no established treatments exist. We report two cases of UC with concomitant UGI that showed positive responses to vedolizumab therapy.

ABSTRACT Objectives Approximately 10%–30% patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) develop gastric neoplasms (GNs). Although recent reports have suggested the effectiveness of gel‐immersion endoscopic mucosal resection (GI‐EMR) for FAP‐associated GNs, given its simplicity and safety, treatment outcomes for such lesions have not been evaluated.

Background and Aim We aimed to investigate whether individuals with low pepsinogen I levels differed from those with normal pepsinogen I levels in terms of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) use, referral to gastroscopy, and findings on gastroscopy.

PGC TagSNP and its interaction with H. pylori and relation with gene expression in susceptibility to gastric carcinogenesis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pepsinogen C (PGC) plays an important role in sustaining the cellular differentiation during the process of gastric carcinogenesis. This study aimed to assess the role of PGC tagSNPs and their interactions with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)

We analyzed 9,940,870 endoscopic procedures from the Japanese Endoscopy Database (2015–2023), identifying 9,669 eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease (EGID) cases. The prevalence of eosinophilic esophagitis, gastritis, and duodenitis increased significantly (p < 0.001), while enteritis and colitis remained unchanged (p = 0.136). EoE rose from 36 cases (

Significance of Serum Pepsinogens in Atrophic Gastritis
Background: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a precancerous lesion. A commonly used test for the diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric endoscopy with biopsy collection, and a good serological test would be best include low levels of pepsinogen I (

ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty is a minimally invasive and effective treatment for obesity, although gastric mucosa folding and subsequent reduced visibility of the gastric lining raise concerns for some patients. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of a revised peroral endoscopic myo‐neurotomy (R‐POEM‐N) technique using a ...
