Differences in Clinical Characteristics Between Missed and Detected Laryngopharyngeal Cancers

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aim Laryngopharyngeal cancers are often overlooked during endoscopy because of their anatomical complexity and the gag reflex. However, the characteristics of these cancers remain poorly understood. We studied the differences in clinical characteristics and endoscopic procedures between missed and detected cancers.

Characterisation of sleep apneas and respiratory circuitry in mice lacking CDKL5

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary CDKL5 deficiency disorder is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the CDKL5 gene. Central apneas during wakefulness have been reported in patients with CDKL5 deficiency disorder. Studies on CDKL5‐knockout mice, a CDKL5 deficiency disorder model, reported sleep apneas, but it is still unclear whether these events are central (central ...

Enteric neuropathy and the vagus nerve: Therapeutic implications

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Abstract Enteric neuropathies are characterized by abnormalities of gut innervation, which includes the enteric nervous system, inducing severe gut dysmotility among other dysfunctions. Most of the gastrointestinal tract is innervated by the vagus nerve, the efferent branches of which have close interconnections with the enteric nervous system and ...

Prepontine non-giant neurons drive flexible escape behavior in zebrafish [PDF]

, 2019
Many species execute ballistic escape reactions to avoid imminent danger. Despite fast reaction times, responses are often highly regulated, reflecting a trade-off between costly motor actions and perceived threat level.
