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

Neurogastroenterology &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.

Defining Pharyngeal and Upper Esophageal Sphincter Disorders on High‐Resolution Manometry‐Impedance: The Leuven Consensus

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The Leuven Consensus provides a classification scheme for the diagnosis of pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter (UES) motor disorders using metrics derived from pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry‐impedance (P‐HRM‐I). These recommendations complement routine instrumental investigations and provide a standardized process, criteria, and ...
