Contemporary esophageal physiological testing for primary esophageal motility disorder (PEMD) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) before bariatric surgery: A systematic literature review

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Summary Objective This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the preoperative prevalence of primary esophageal motility disorders and gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with morbid obesity before bariatric surgery. Background The use of esophageal manometry ± 24‐hour pH study before bariatric surgery was explored.

Fascicular/Purkinje Tissue Colocalized With Scar in Cardiomyopathy Patients Undergoing Ventricular Fibrillation Ablation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a poorly understood arrhythmia that is one of the main mechanisms of sudden cardiac death in patients with structural heart disease (SHD). Fascicular and Purkinje tissue (FPT) has been implicated in VF.

Feasibility of a Modified Bronchoscopic Transparenchymal Nodule Access Technique (‘Essen Tunnel’) for Improving the Diagnosis of Intraparenchymal Pulmonary Lesions

Respirology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Diagnosing intraparenchymal pulmonary lesions lacking a bronchus sign remains challenging. Bronchoscopic transparenchymal nodule access (BTPNA) for reaching such lesions has seen limited clinical adoption due to insufficient evidence and practical challenges. This study evaluates the feasibility and diagnostic yield of

Sex differences in the work of breathing during exercise are independent of forced vital capacity in healthy adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During exercise, females have a higher work of breathing (ẆB) than males for a given minute ventilation (V̇E$ \dot {V}_{\text {E}}$) ≥ 50–60 L min−1, presumably due to sex differences in airway size. However, on average, males have greater forced vital capacity (FVC) than females, and the confounding effect of FVC on sex differences in ẆB is ...
