Preliminary Characterization of Proximal Versus Distal Esophageal Function in Healthy, Asymptomatic Adults

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The preliminary data represent the first attempt to quantify normal proximal esophageal function using HRM pressure and temporal contractility measurements in two positions. All proximal values (PCI, contraction time, and contraction length) were significantly different when comparing the two positions (PCI p < 0.0001; time p < 0.0001; length p < 0 ...

Effect of Linaclotide on Colonic Motility Assessed With Intraluminal Colonic High‐Resolution Manometry in Healthy Subjects. An Acute, Open Label, Randomized, Crossover, Reader‐Blinded Study

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Our study showed that, in healthy controls, acute administration of linaclotide increased the total number of long‐distance propagating and the pre‐prandial pancolonic pressurizations. Further studies need to address whether the observed effects are directly or indirectly mediated by the mechanism of action of this useful medication to treat chronic ...

Effect of aging on esophageal motility in patients with and without GERD

GMS German Medical Science, 2011
Background/Aims: The impact of aging on esophageal motility is not completely understood. This study aims at assessing 1) whether degeneration of esophageal body motility occurs with age and 2) whether this development is influenced by gastroesophageal ...

Colon wall motility: comparison of novel quantitative semi-automatic measurements using cine MRI [PDF]

, 2016
Background Recently, cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has shown promise for visualizing movement of the colonic wall, although assessment of data has been subjective and observer dependent.

Comparison of Rebound and Applanation Tonometry in Eyes With Focal Corneal Edema

Veterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the effect of corneal edema on intraocular pressure (IOP) readings and their accuracy and precision when obtained with handheld rebound and applanation tonometers. Animals and Procedures IOP readings from areas of focal corneal edema were compared to those from clear cornea in 10 eyes of 7 glaucomatous cats in vivo using

Validation of Recalibrated IOPVet in Canine Eyes Compared to Manometry and Recalibrated TONOVET Plus

Veterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the clinical and manometric accuracy of a recalibrated version of the IOPVet indentation tonometer in dogs, and to compare its performance to a recalibrated TonoVet Plus (rTVP) and in situ direct manometry. Animals Studied A total of 97 eyes from 49 client‐owned dogs were enrolled and divided into three groups: a ...

The White Coat Effect Influences Intraocular Pressure Measurements in Dogs: Comparing Tonometry Values Obtained in the Clinic Versus Home

Veterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the effect of clinic versus home environments on intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements in normotensive dogs. Animals Forty client‐owned normotensive dogs. Methods In a prospective crossover study, 40 normotensive dogs were included following a complete ophthalmic examination.
