Advantages of anti‐endomisium evaluation in children with low titers of anti‐transglutaminase antibodies: A retrospective study

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Diagnosing celiac disease (CD) via esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS) is necessary when anti‐transglutaminase (anti‐TG) antibody levels are below 10× the upper limit of normal (ULN). This study evaluates patients with low anti‐TG titers, particularly when endomysial antibodies (EMA) are negative.

Utility of the Endoscopic Pressure Study Integrated System in Identifying Silent Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease During Routine Health Check-ups. [PDF]

DEN Open
ABSTRACT Objectives The endoscopic pressure study integrated system (EPSIS) is a novel functional endoscopic modality that records intragastric pressure (IGP) waveforms during CO2 insufflation to evaluate lower esophageal sphincter (LES) function and diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Avoidant and restrictive food intake disorder among children with eosinophilic esophagitis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Children with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) may be at heightened risk for developing the eating disorder avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). However, relatively few studies have specifically looked at the prevalence of ARFID in children with EoE. The literature is plagued by varying diagnostic nomenclatures; existing
