• Distal Mean Nocturnal Baseline Impedance Predicts Pathological Reflux of Isolated Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Symptoms

    The median mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) measurements for the study groups at each of the measured sites (3 cm and 5 cm above the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and proximal esophagus) in the concomitant typical reflux syndrome (CTRS) (Fig. 2A) and isolated laryngopharyngeal reflux symptoms (ILPRS) groups (Fig. 2B). MNBI values were lower in patients with pH (+) than those with pH (–) and healthy controls at 3 cm and 5 cm above LES in both the CTRS and ILPRS groups. However, MNBI values were similar over the proximal esophagus among all groups.

  • Usefulness of EndoFLIP in Diverticular Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy for Symptomatic Epiphrenic Diverticulum

    Comparison of esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and esophagography before and 5 months after diverticular peroral endoscopic myotomy (D-POEM). (A) The diverticular septum had nearly disappeared on EGD after D-POEM. (B) The depth of the diverticulum was estimated to be shallow, and the diverticular neck was widening. The passage of barium was improved on esophagography after D-POEM.

  • Pyloric Functional Lumen Imaging Probe Measurements Are Dependent on Balloon Position

    Examples of endoscopic images of the 3 functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) positions within the pylorus. (A) Proximal balloon position: 75% of balloon is in the duodenum and 25% in the antrum, (B) middle balloon position: 50% of balloon in the duodenum and 50% in the antrum, (C) distal balloon position: 25% of balloon in the duodenum and 75% in the antrum. Corresponding FLIP images of the 3 FLIP positions; (D) proximal balloon position, (E) middle balloon position, and (F) distal balloon position.

  • A Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome Could Be Re-termed as a Nutcracker Celiac Ganglion Abdominal Pain Syndrome

    Lateral view of nutcracker celiac ganglion. NCGAPS, nutcracker ganglion abdominal pain syndrome.

  • Total Transit Time and Probiotic Persistence in Healthy Adults: A Pilot Study

    Persistence of probiotic strains according to whole gut transit time (WGTT) subgroups. (A) Kinetics of the average onset and recovery of Lactobacillus helveticus R0052, Bifidobacterium longum R0175, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei HA-108, and Bifidobacterium breve HA-129 strains (from top, respectively) over the study duration in the 3 transit time categories (Fast, Intermediate [Inter.], and Slow). Mixed model ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison test. *P < 0.05. (B) Time to detection (onset), (C) time to non-detection (persistence), and (D) duration of detection (bottom) in days for individual participants in each transit category for L. helveticus R0052, B. longum R0175, L. paracasei HA-108, and B. breve HA-129 strains (left to right). Ordinary one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. *P < 0.05.
