Three-Dimensional Myoarchitecture of the Lower Esophageal Sphincter and Esophageal Hiatus Using Optical Sectioning Microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Studies to date have failed to reveal the anatomical counterpart of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). We assessed the LES and esophageal hiatus morphology using a block containing the human LES and crural diaphragm, serially sectioned at 50 μm ...

Acute Effects of the 5‐Hydroxytryptamine Type 4 Receptor Agonist Mosapride on Pharyngeal Swallowing Physiology in Adults

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 5‐hydroxytryptamine type 4 receptor agonist mosapride is known to modulate esophageal peristalsis and enhance lower esophageal sphincter compliance. However, its impact on oropharyngeal swallowing physiology remains insufficiently characterized.

NORMATIVE VALUES FOR A NEW WATER-PERFUSED HIGH RESOLUTION MANOMETRY SYSTEM

open access: yesArquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2018
BACKGROUND: Esophageal manometry is the most reliable method to evaluate esophageal motility. High resolution manometry (HRM) provides topographic contour colored plots (Clouse Plots) with simultaneous analysis from the pharynx to the stomach.

Prevalence of Esophageal Dysmotility and Reflux in Muscle Tension Dysphonia Patients

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) contributes to muscle tension dysphonia (MTD); however, symptoms overlap with esophageal dysmotility. Study aims were to determine the prevalence of esophageal disorders among MTD patients and correlate pathologies to patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs).

Characteristics of Swallowing Function in People with Parkinson's Disease: A Scoping Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Most individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) develop dysphagia during the course of their disease. It is crucial to comprehensively understand swallowing characteristics specific to PD for effective treatment. Objectives To systematically analyze and synthesize swallowing characteristics in people with PD compared with healthy ...
