Clinical utility of pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry with impedance for upper esophageal sphincter dysfunction in gastroenterology

Advances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry with impedance (P‐HRM‐I) is an established assessment method used to evaluate pharyngeal swallowing. It provides precise quantification of swallowing biomechanics that enable the detection of alterations in swallowing physiology.

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.
