Endoscopic Prediction of Achalasia: Putting the CART Before the CARS

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 37, Issue 7, July 2025.
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.

Virtual‐reality endoscopic navigation system in mediastinal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (with video)

open access: yesDigestive Endoscopy, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 541-547, May 2025.
The approaches to mediastinal surgery are open thoracic, thoracoscopic, and mediastinoscopy. However, using natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) would be minimally invasive if the mediastinum is reached via the esophagus. One disadvantage of NOTES was no information outside the wall.

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis: Examining the Psychometric Evaluations of Disordered Eating Scales in Adults Living With Gastrointestinal Conditions

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 37, Issue 5, May 2025.
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 ...
