EFFICACY OF PNEUMATIC DILATATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF IDIOPATIC ACHALASIA: A SINGLE-CENTRE EXPERIENCE [PDF]

, 2015
Pneumatic dilatation (PD) and surgical miotomy (SM) are presentely the best treastments for untreated achalasia, with similar efficacy. There is no information on the relative efficacy of PD in younger compared to older patients.

Consensus on the Management of Anesthetic Agents During Digestive Motility Measurements and Proposal of a Standardized Protocol for Anesthesia (French Neuro Gastroenterology Group GFNG and Committee of Anesthetic French Experts)

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Anesthesia can alter measurements during digestive endoscopies, yet no standardized protocol currently exists. Two expert groups—the French Neuro‐Gastroenterology Group (GFNG) and anesthesiologists—used the Delphi method to reach a consensus on which drugs have an influence (91 amendments), ultimately resulting in a proposed anesthesia protocol (28 ...

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Pnematic Dilation in Achalasia

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2001
Pneumatic dilation is the most common first-line therapy for the treatment of achalasia. The aim of dilation is a controlled disruption of circular muscle fibres of the lower esophageal sphincter to reduce the functional obstruction.

A pilot study on anti‐reflux mucoplasty with valve as novel endoscopic therapy for gastroesophageal reflux disease

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Background and aims Endoscopic anti‐reflux therapies like anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation have shown efficacy for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in systematic reviews and meta‐analyses. Anti‐reflux mucoplasty (ARM‐P), a refinement of ARMS, incorporates immediate closure of the resection site to reduce ...

Antireflux myoplasty: Endoscopic myoplasty with bilateral sling fiber plication for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Endoscopic antireflux therapy is a novel endoscopic treatment for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. We developed antireflux myoplasty (AR‐MP), a modified version of antireflux mucoplasty (ARM‐P), in which exposed bilateral sling fibers are sutured directly via endoscopic hand‐suturing.
