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

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &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.

Assessing the effectiveness of texture and color enhancement imaging versus white‐light endoscopy in detecting gastrointestinal lesions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Introduction Gastrointestinal cancers account for 26% of cancer incidence and 35% of cancer‐related deaths globally. Early detection is crucial but often limited by white light endoscopy (WLE), which misses subtle lesions. Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), introduced in 2020, enhances texture, brightness, and color, addressing WLE's
