Association Between Functional Dyspepsia and Binge Eating Disorder: A Frequent, Often Overlooked Overlap Clinical Presentation.

Background/aims: This study aims to investigate the association between Binge Eating Disorder and functional dyspepsia in a Mexican population, focusing on symptomatology and demographic characteristics.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 1016 subjects, evaluating binge eating disorder (BED) and functional dyspepsia based on the Rome IV criteria. Data collection included sociodemographic information, gastrointestinal symptom severity, and anxiety/depression screening using validated tools.

Association Between Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Lower Urinary Tract Symptomatology: A Cross-sectional Study in Mexican Population.

Goals: This study aimed to investigate the clinical phenotype of urinary symptoms in patients diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome, the factors associated with this overlap, and the impact of urinary symptoms on their quality of life.

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome is a common disorder, affecting up to 3.8% of the population.

Identifying the Hiccup-Induced Esophagogastric Waveform: A Case Series Report Using High-Resolution Manometry.

Hiccups result from involuntary contractions of the diaphragm, driven by a complex neuromuscular reflex. Three patients with persistent hiccups underwent esophageal high-resolution manometry during hiccup episodes, revealing a consistent finding: sustained contraction of the esophagogastric junction with intermittent pressure peaks. This pattern, termed the "Hiccup-Induced Esophagogastric Waveform," shows significant esophageal pressure changes linked to hiccup reflex.

[Comparison of different tools for the evaluation of malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with liver cirrhosis].

Introduction: malnutrition and sarcopenia are frequent in the population with liver cirrhosis and have a negative impact on the performance status and life expectancy of these patients. There are multiple assessment tools for malnutrition and sarcopenia in cirrhosis. Objective: to assess malnutrition and sarcopenia in liver cirrhosis and to compare the accuracy of diagnostic tools in this population.
