Dysphagia Secondary to Esophageal Compression in a Patient with Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research, 2022 Cardiogenic dysphagia is a rare type of esophageal dysphagia caused by external compression of the esophagus by an enlarged left atrium. Long-term comparisons between the degree of cardiogenic dysphagia and heart failure have not been reported due to its

Pleural manometry during thoracocentesis in patients with malignant pleural effusion: A randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Respiratory Therapy, 2023 Background: Large-volume therapeutic thoracocentesis may be associated with pulmonary congestion or a more serious complication; re-expansion pulmonary edema (RPE). We investigated whether monitoring pleural pressure with manometry during thoracocentesis
