THE REAL PREVALENCE OF EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS AND BARRETT'S ESOPHAGUS IN SYSTEMIC SCLERODERMA: DATA FROM 12-MONTHS PROSPECTIVE STUDY

Научно-практическая ревматология, 2012
Complicated forms of reflux-esophagitis, i.e., erosive esophagitis and Barrett's esophagus (BE) — are common types of visceral pathology in systemic scleroderma (SSD), which require adequate therapy and follow up.

Lymphocyte Micronucleus Formation Is Driven by Inflammation‐Induced Oxidative DNA Damage in Oesophageal Cancer Development

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Chromosomal instability is a hallmark of cancer, but minimally invasive ways to detect systemic DNA damage and cancer risk remain limited. Here, using patient blood samples, the authors investigated lymphocyte micronuclei (MN) frequency as a potential marker of DNA damage across the progression from gastroesophageal reflux disease to Barrett's ...

Management of Malignant Esophageal Stricture with Esophageal Dilation and Esophageal Stents

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1994
Esophageal dilatation and endoprosthesis insertion are very useful techniques in the palliation of malignant esophageal strictures. Patients with tracheoesophageal fistula or tumors poorly responsive to dilation or other therapies will achieve benefit from esophageal stent placement.

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Optimising hypoxia PET imaging and its applications in guiding targeted radiation therapy for non‐small cell lung cancer: a scoping review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 106-118, March 2025.
This review article reports that quantification of hypoxic volumes using PET in the pre‐radiation therapy setting is of prognostic value and indicative of treatment response in non‐small cell lung cancer. Abstract Introduction Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer‐related death. Definitive treatment includes chemotherapy and

Esophageal scintigraphy to quantitate esophageal transit (quantitation of esophageal transit)

Gastroenterology, 1979
None of the tests employed currently to investigate esophageal transit is quantitative. The purpose of this study was to evaluate normal subjects and patients with a variety of esophageal disorders using a scintigraphic technique to quantitate esophageal transit.

Decision aid reduces caregivers' preference for acid‐suppressive medication in infants with symptoms suggestive of reflux

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Caregivers of infants with symptoms suggestive of gastroesophageal reflux (GER), such as regurgitation and excessive crying, often feel uncertain and seek treatment, though it is usually unnecessary. This study evaluated the effect of a decision aid on reducing caregivers’ preference for acid suppressive medication for infants ...
