Hiatoplasty with crura buttressing versus hiatoplasty alone during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy [PDF]
Introduction. In obese patients with hiatal hernia (HH), laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with cruroplasty is an option but use of prosthetic mesh crura reinforcement is debated.

Quantitative assessment of multichannel intraluminal impedance pH and its clinical implications
We sought to quantify the characteristics of acid reflux episodes in patients with extraesophageal GERD symptoms (EES), hiatal hernia (HH), and erosive esophagitis (EroE) using multichannel intraluminal impedance pH (MII‐pH) and investigate the ...

Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...
