Impact of Circular Stapler Size on Short‐Term Outcomes and Long‐Term Quality of Life After McKeown Esophagectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the impact of circular stapler size on both short‐term outcomes and long‐term QOL after McKeown esophagectomy. We revealed that short‐term outcomes, including anastomotic leakage and stenosis, did not differ between patients who underwent anastomosis with a 21 mm stapler and those with a 23 mm stapler.

Risk Factors for Anastomotic Stricture and Obstructive Symptoms Following Double‐Flap Technique Reconstruction After Proximal Gastrectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study investigated risk factors for anastomotic stricture and obstructive symptoms following double‐flap technique (DFT) reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy. Mucosal detachment, potentially caused by thermal damage, was identified as a significant risk factor for anastomotic stricture, while continuous suturing at the esophago ...

The HRAS Variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr) Causes a Predominantly Ectodermal Phenotype Lacking Classic Costello Syndrome Features

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is a rare dominant HRAS RASopathy characterized by curly hair, cardiac abnormalities, craniofacial anomalies, and developmental delay. HRAS codon 58, 59, and 60 variants are associated with milder phenotypes. We describe a three‐generation family with a previously unreported heterozygous HRAS variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr)

Gastroesophageal Reflux Characteristics and Patterns in Patients with Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2018
Introduction. Idiopathic subglottic stenosis represents a spectrum of subglottic disease without a clear underlying cause. Prior studies have implicated a pathogenic role of gastroesophageal reflux disease in idiopathic subglottic stenosis.

De Novo Heterozygous ZFX Frameshift Variant in a Female With an X‐Linked Neurodevelopmental Disorder

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germline ZFX variants are associated with an X‐linked neurodevelopmental disorder, with 14 males and 16 females reported to date. We describe a 20‐year‐old female with a heterozygous ZFX frameshift variant, p.(Met666Valfs*2), identified by genome sequencing, previously reported in an affected male.

Prevalence and Spectrum of Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease in Bronchial Asthma [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015
Background: There exists a complex interplay between asthma and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Both these diseases are known to aggravate each other and amelioration of one is necessary for the control of the other. There is a paucity of studies in

Patient‐Specific Coculture of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa Enhances Epithelial Barrier Disruption and Virulence in CRS

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is associated with polymicrobial infections, often involving S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. It is unclear whether the polymicrobial context plays a role in exacerbating epithelial damage, inflammation, and resistance to therapy. Methods S. aureus and P. aeruginosa (n =
