SimulScan and Partial Least Squares: Visualizing Swallowing Through Functional and Dynamic Imaging Correlations

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 4, Page 1755-1768, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Swallowing involves the precise coordination of muscles and brain areas and can be disrupted in a variety of neurological conditions. Current methods to visualize swallowing cannot examine both the biomechanics and brain activity associated with specific swallowing events.

Acupuncture for Poststroke Dysphagia: An NTS‐Centered Hypothesis‐Generating Framework Linking the Brainstem Swallowing Network, Neuroimmune Regulation, and Vagal Anti‐Inflammatory Signaling

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Poststroke dysphagia (PSD) may reflect not only focal motor pathway injury but also instability of the brainstem swallowing network under neuroimmune, glial, and vascular microenvironmental stress. Methods This mechanism‐oriented narrative review synthesized evidence on swallowing central pattern generator (CPG) organization ...

High-resolution manometry in patients with and without globus pharyngeus and/or symptoms of laryngopharyngeal reflux

BMC Gastroenterology, 2017
Background Globus pharyngeus is common and has a low cure rate. Its etiology is complex and reported to be associated with laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR).

Intestinal Metaplasia of the Distal Esophagus in a Patient With Untreated Achalasia—An Unusual Case and Review of Literature

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Barrett's esophagus (BE) and achalasia are distinct esophageal disorders with opposing pathophysiologic mechanisms, making their coexistence exceedingly rare. We describe a 51‐year‐old woman who presented with progressive dysphagia, postprandial vomiting, and significant weight loss over 8 months.

Systematic Review of Pharyngeal and Esophageal Manometry in Healthy or Dysphagic Older Persons (>60 years)

Geriatrics, 2018
We undertook a systematic review of swallowing biomechanics, as assessed using pharyngeal and esophageal manometry in healthy or dysphagic older individuals aged over 60 years of age, comparing findings to studies of younger participants.

Unusual Spinal Epidural and Paraspinal Venous Engorgement Secondary to Hepatosplenic Schistosomiasis: A Rare Cause of Severe Low Back Pain

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe low back pain from spinal epidural and paraspinal venous engorgement secondary to hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is rare. MRI revealed dilated epidural veins and neural foraminal narrowing. The patient was managed conservatively with analgesia and carvedilol for portal hypertension and subsequently experienced complete resolution of back

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Endoscopy: Understanding Gastric Stasis, Aspiration Risk, and Contemporary Peri‐Procedural Guidance

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 183-196, September 2026.
Pharmacological mechanisms and physiologic effects of GLP‐1 receptor agonists relevant to peri‐endoscopic risk. ABSTRACT The global increase in obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has led to a higher use of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) among patients ...

Esophageal manometry findings and degree of acid exposure in short and long Barrett's esophagus

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012
CONTEXT: Barrett's esophagus (BE) is characterized by intestinal metaplasia in the distal esophagus and is classified as short-segment (3 cm - LSSBE). It is suggested that LSSBE is associated with more severe esophageal motor abnormalities and increased ...

Lifestyle Factors Associated With Reflux Symptoms Without Erosive Esophagitis in Japanese Individuals With and Without Obesity Undergoing Health Checkups: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of General and Family Medicine, Volume 27, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Non‐erosive reflux disease (NERD) is the most prevalent gastroesophageal reflux disease phenotype. However, lifestyle factors associated with reflux symptoms in the absence of erosive esophagitis, a presentation often classified as NERD in epidemiological studies, remain underexplored in Japan.
