Neuromuscular and neuromechanical assessments of respiratory performance in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy across the natural history of disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...

Endoscopic resection of polypoid solitary rectal ulcer: A novel first‐line therapeutic strategy using snare‐assisted mucosal and fibrosis resection

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives To propose a novel first‐line endoscopic therapy for treating polypoid lesions in solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (P‐SRUS), the rarest and most challenging subtype of SRUS, which encompasses various endoscopic findings including mucosal erythema, superficial or deep ulcers, and polypoid lesions.

A pilot study on anti‐reflux mucoplasty with valve as novel endoscopic therapy for gastroesophageal reflux disease

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Background and aims Endoscopic anti‐reflux therapies like anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation have shown efficacy for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in systematic reviews and meta‐analyses. Anti‐reflux mucoplasty (ARM‐P), a refinement of ARMS, incorporates immediate closure of the resection site to reduce ...

Antireflux myoplasty: Endoscopic myoplasty with bilateral sling fiber plication for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Endoscopic antireflux therapy is a novel endoscopic treatment for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. We developed antireflux myoplasty (AR‐MP), a modified version of antireflux mucoplasty (ARM‐P), in which exposed bilateral sling fibers are sutured directly via endoscopic hand‐suturing.

Concurrent Diagnosis of Superficial Esophageal Cancer and Esophageal Achalasia: A Case Report and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We report a case of a 70‐year‐old woman with esophageal achalasia and concurrent superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Three adjacent superficial lesions were resected en bloc by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), with no lymphovascular invasion.

Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Incomplete Cardia Reconstruction Cases Following Multiple Anti‐reflux Mucosectomy/Anti‐reflux Mucosal Ablation Treatments

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation (ARMA) are novel endoscopic treatments for proton pump inhibitor or potassium‐competitive acid blocker‐refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. These procedures induce scarring of the artificial ulcer at the gastric cardia, which tightens the enlarged cardiac ...
