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 ...

Esophageal striated muscle contractions in patients with Chagas' disease and idiopathic achalasia

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
Chagas' disease causes degeneration and reduction of the number of intrinsic neurons of the esophageal myenteric plexus, with consequent absent or partial lower esophageal sphincter relaxation and loss of peristalsis in the esophageal body.

Psychological and Clinical Factors Mediate Post‐COVID‐19 Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Exposure to COVID‐19 has been shown previously to be associated with a higher risk for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This study aimed to better explain this relationship using mediation analysis. Methods This post hoc analysis of a multicenter cohort study includes 623 patients with and without COVID‐19 infection.

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 ...

Esophageal motility changes after thyroidectomy; possible associations with postoperative voice and swallowing disorders: preliminary results. [PDF]

, 2013
Objective Swallowing and voice impairment are common after thyroidectomy. We evaluated short-term functional changes in esophageal motility in a series of patients who had undergone total thyroidectomy. Several studies have investigated these symptoms by

Quantitation of Lower Esophageal Sphincter Competence

Gastroenterology, 1967
Summary Normal subjects and patients with incompetent gastroesophageal sphincters have been studied by open-tipped catheter techniques. The two groups could not be separated on the basis of pressures measured by conventional methods. The best explanation for this failure is that the sphincters sealed the recording orifice.
