Article Synopsis
- The study examined esophageal motility in 111 patients with systemic sclerosis using multiple rapid swallows during high-resolution manometry.
- Analysis revealed that 41% of these patients had absent contractility, and significantly fewer demonstrated normal motility compared to healthy controls.
- Impaired peristaltic reserve was identified as the most prevalent finding, showing that patients with systemic sclerosis often have reduced esophageal function post-swallowing.
Objective. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk from skin cancer. Aims include assessing IBD patients' risk factors and knowledge of skin cancer and current skin protection practices to identify gaps in patient education regarding skin cancer prevention in IBD.
