Is Single‐Session Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy With Fundoplication Safe and Effective in Achalasia? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
This meta‐analysis of nine studies (202 patients) demonstrates that peroral endoscopic myotomy with fundoplication (POEM‐F) achieves a technical success of 94.8% and significant symptom improvement (Eckardt score reduction from 8.3 to 1.1). Post‐procedural esophagitis occurred in 20.7% and wrap integrity was preserved in 75.7% on follow‐up, supporting ...

Orally administered L-arginine and glycine are highly effective against acid reflux esophagitis in rats

Medical Science Monitor, 2012
Summary Background Reflux esophagitis is caused mainly by excessive exposure of the mucosa to gastric contents. In the present study, we examined the effect of several amino acids on acid reflux esophagitis in rats. Material/Methods After 18 h of fasting,

Enhanced Visualization of the Distal Myotomy Endpoint during Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy Using Indocyanine Green With Infrared Imaging

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Indocyanine green with infrared imaging (ICG‐IRI) provides real‐time fluorescence visualization of the distal myotomy endpoint during peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). In this study of 39 patients, ICG‐IRI achieved a 94.9% success rate in fluorescence detection and significantly improved esophageal relaxation and symptoms.

Enhanced Endoscope is Associated With Success Rates in B2‐ Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS) in intrahepatic bile duct segment 3 (B3) is widely used for biliary drainage. Post‐puncture procedures are easy to perform in intrahepatic bile duct segment 2 (B2), but using a conventional oblique‐viewing (OV) scope (GF‐UCT260) may result in transesophageal puncture.

Efficacy of the U‐shaped flap technique in preventing reflux after minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy for proximal gastric and esophagogastric junction cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery
Background Preventing gastroesophageal reflux after proximal gastrectomy for proximal gastric and esophagogastric junction cancer remains challenging due to the lack of standardized reconstructive techniques.

Primary (AL) Amyloidosis Following COVID‐19 Infection: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary (AL) amyloidosis is a rare systemic disorder caused by extracellular deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains, resulting in multi‐organ dysfunction. SARS‐CoV‐2 infection may induce persistent inflammatory and immune dysregulation, potentially promoting amyloid formation, although clinical evidence is limited, making the ...

Radiologically Evident Oesophageal Dilation in Paediatric Rumination Syndrome With Recurrent Aspiration Pneumonia: A Rare Case Without Achalasia

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
We present a rare example of structural change likely due to behavioural disorder in a 15‐year‐old autistic boy with rumination syndrome who presented with progressive oesophageal dilation on CT. Achalasia was excluded based on imaging. ABSTRACT A 15‐year‐old autistic boy with rumination syndrome presented with progressive oesophageal dilation on CT ...

Asthma under control is inversely related with erosive esophagitis among healthy adults.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundSome recent studies suggested that reflux esophagitis is positively correlated with asthma. However, there are debates on this issue. The aim of this study is to clarify the true association between reflux esophagitis and asthma in a large ...
