Relationship Between Intragastric Meal Distribution, Gastric Emptying, and Gastric Neuromuscular Dysfunction in Chronic Gastroduodenal Disorders

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Multimodal physiological testing using gastric emptying scintigraphy with intragastric meal distribution and body surface gastric mapping showed proximal retention of food correlated with delayed emptying and neuromuscular spectral abnormalities (abnormal slow wave frequencies or rhythms) and delayed motility responses on BSGM.

Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Incomplete Cardia Reconstruction Cases Following Multiple Anti‐reflux Mucosectomy/Anti‐reflux Mucosal Ablation Treatments

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation (ARMA) are novel endoscopic treatments for proton pump inhibitor or potassium‐competitive acid blocker‐refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. These procedures induce scarring of the artificial ulcer at the gastric cardia, which tightens the enlarged cardiac ...

Is Single‐Session Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy With Fundoplication Safe and Effective in Achalasia? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
This meta‐analysis of nine studies (202 patients) demonstrates that peroral endoscopic myotomy with fundoplication (POEM‐F) achieves a technical success of 94.8% and significant symptom improvement (Eckardt score reduction from 8.3 to 1.1). Post‐procedural esophagitis occurred in 20.7% and wrap integrity was preserved in 75.7% on follow‐up, supporting ...
