The Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Clinical Correlates of Erosive Esophagitis and Barrett’s Esophagus in Iranian Patients with Reflux Symptoms

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2014
Background. Erosive esophagitis (EE) and Barrett’s esophagus (BE) are the two important complications of gastroesophageal reflux disease. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of and the risk factors for EE and BE in an Iranian group of patients with ...

Protective Effect of ECQ on Rat Reflux Esophagitis Model

Korean Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 2012
This study was designed to determine the protective effect of Rumex Aquaticus Herba extracts containing quercetin-3-β-D-glucuronopyranoside (ECQ) on experimental reflux esophagitis. Reflux esophagitis was induced by surgical procedure.

A Review of the Mechanisms of Action of the Herbal Medicine, STW 5‐II, Underlying Its Efficacy in Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
The pathophysiology of functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome includes altered motility, secretion, sensitivity to sensory signals, impaired epithelial barrier function, inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. The phytomedicine, STW 5‐II, represents a multi‐targeted approach, addressing these pathophysiologies.

Additional Diagnostic Yield of Ambulatory 24‐h High Resolution Manometry With Impedance in Patients With Non‐Cardiac Chest Pain or Non‐Obstructive Dysphagia

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Spastic and hypercontractile esophageal motor disorders can cause retrosternal pain and/or dysphagia but may be missed by short‐term high resolution manometry (HRM). 24‐h‐HRM detected considerable circadian variability of esophageal contractility and markedly increased the percentage of patients diagnosed with a major motor disorder.

A Non-Frequently Considered Diagnosis of Dysphagia; Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Güncel Pediatri, 2015
Eosinophilic Esophagitis is infiltration of esophagus mucosa by eosinophil leucocyte. It is rarely observed in children and the symptoms are similar to gastroesophageal reflux. This case, which was applied esophagus balloon dilatation in the pediatric

A Role for High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) Release in the Pathogenesis of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Incubation of esophageal epithelial cells with a weakly acidic (pH 5) bile salt (deoxycholic acid) induces translocation of HMGB1 from the nucleus to the cytosol, and its subsequent release from the cell. This process can be ameliorated by pre‐treatment with the antioxidant, curcumin.

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.

Assessment of Esophagogastric Junction Barrier Function With the Supine‐Upright Transition of the Chicago Classification Protocol

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims The straight leg raise (SLR) is a provocative maneuver used to assess the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) barrier function during high‐resolution manometry (HRM) and is part of the Milan Score (MS). The Chicago Classification 4.0 (CCv4.0) protocol requires patients to perform a supine‐upright transition (SUT), increasing intra‐
