Weight Gain Is Associated With Decreased Treatment Response to Dietary Therapy in Adults With Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Gastro Hep Advances
Background and Aims: Dietary therapy is a first-line treatment for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We aimed to determine whether dietary therapy treatment outcomes vary by baseline weight status or change in body weight during treatment. Methods: In this

Usefulness of Endoscopy for the Detection and Diagnosis of Primary Esophageal Motility Disorders and Diseases Relating to Abnormal Esophageal Motility

Diagnostics, 2023
Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is performed to rule out organic diseases in the diagnosis of esophageal motility disorders (EMDs). Abnormal endoscopic findings can be observed during EGD, which indicate the presence of EMDs. Several endoscopic findings

Esophageal Potential Difference Measurements in Esophageal Disease

Gastroenterology, 1982
To determine if esophageal transmural electrical potential difference measurements are of use for evaluating esophageal disease, we recorded potential difference in 129 patients with one or more of the following: heartburn, dysphagia, and chest pain.

Esophageal replacement for end-stage benign esophageal disease [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1998
Benign esophageal diseases constitute a common group of disorders that are generally managed with medical therapy or surgery designed to improve foregut function. A small subset of patients, however, has advanced disease that requires esophageal replacement to achieve symptomatic relief.One hundred four patients with benign esophageal disease who ...

Comparing self‐reported race and genetic ancestry for identifying potential differentially methylated sites in endometrial cancer: insights from African ancestry proportions using machine learning models

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...
