Review of nutrition management of pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (CIPO) is a rare, heterogeneous, and debilitating disorder characterized by profound intestinal dysmotility and severe nutrition challenges. Its presentation resembles that of mechanical bowel obstruction, but CIPO occurs in the absence of luminal obstruction.

Oestrogen and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Dynamics in Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Introduction: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a common clinical disorder characterised by the reflux of stomach contents into the oesophagus, primarily due to the temporary relaxation of the Lower Oesophageal Sphincter (LES).

Pressure abnormalities in patients with Zenker's diverticulum using pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2020
Objectives Zenker's diverticulum is associated with reduced cricopharyngeal compliance and abnormal intrabolus pressure. However, it is unclear how the pharynx compensates for these deficits.

Relationship between pharyngeal or esophageal reconstruction and esophageal pressure after swallowing

Cancer Reports, 2023
Background High‐resolution manometry, which measures esophageal luminal pressure changes after swallowing, could shed more light on food‐transport dynamics after pharyngeal/esophageal reconstruction.

Efficacy and Safety of Anal High‐Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion Treatment Modalities: A Systematic Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is compelling evidence that treating high‐grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), the anal squamous cell cancer (ASCC) precursor, reduces the risk of developing ASCC. Using high‐resolution anoscopy (HRA), surgical excision, ablative and topical therapies are widely used to treat HSIL.

Diffuse oesophageal spasm: diagnosis by ambulatory 24 hour manometry

, 1997
Background—Diffuse oesophageal spasm (DOS) is a potential cause of intermittent chest pain and/or dysphagia. In the past, the diagnosis of DOS has relied on criteria obtained from standard oesophageal manometry (more than one simultaneous contraction in ...

Mano-Impedancemetric Diagnosis of Esophageal Function in Children With Dyspepsia

Педиатрическая фармакология, 2018
Background. Introduction of new methods of diagnosing functional disorders of the upper gastrointestinal tract into children’s practice will reveal the true cause of changes in esophageal motility in its various pathologies, which will significantly ...

Gastroenterological Society of Australia Position Statement on the Assessment and Management of Idiopathic Gastroparesis

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
The first Australian guidance document on the assessment and management of idiopathic gastroparesis (IGP) reconceptualises IGP as a sensorimotor disorder. It proposes a novel multidisciplinary treatment algorithm and 20 high‐consensus recommendations, addressing common overlapping disorders, and providing clear guidance on associated disordered eating ...

Effects of Combined Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Oral Capsaicinoids on Swallowing Function: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
We investigated the effects of combined transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and oral capsaicinoids on swallowing function in 21 healthy young adults. The combined cortical and peripheral sensory intervention could potentially facilitate swallowing.
