AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) results from incompetency of the lower esophageal sphincter that allows the contents of the stomach to reflux into the esophagus, the airways, and the mouth. The disease affects about 10% of the western population and has a profound negative impact on quality of life. The majority of patients are successfully treated with proton-pump inhibitors, but up to 40% have incomplete relief of symptoms even after dose adjustment. The laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication represents the surgical gold standard, but is largely underused because of the level of technical difficulty and the prevalence of side effects. These factors have contributed to the propensity of patients to continue with medical therapy despite inadequate symptom control and complications of the disease. As a consequence, a significant 'therapy gap' in the treatment of GERD remains evident in current clinical practice. The LINX(®) Reflux Management System (Torax Medical, St. Paul, MN, USA) is designed to provide a permanent solution to GERD by augmenting the sphincter barrier with a standardized, reproducible laparoscopic procedure that does not alter gastric anatomy and is easily reversible. Two single-group trials confirmed that a magnetic device designed to augment the lower esophageal sphincter can be safely and effectively implanted using a standard laparoscopic approach. The device decreased esophageal acid exposure, improved reflux symptoms and quality of life, and allowed cessation of proton-pump inhibitors in the majority of patients.

Background: Previous research on the lower gastrointestinal tract has proved that microbial dysbiosis can lead to intestinal barrier dysfunction and enhanced visceral sensitivity, thus triggering bowel symptoms. Whether esophageal microbial dysbiosis also contributes to the development of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) symptoms, which are known to be associated with impaired esophageal barrier integrity, remains to be explored.

Methods: Patients with GER symptoms (gastroesophageal reflux disease [GERD] and functional esophageal disorders [FED]), duodenal ulcer patients and healthy controls were prospectively included for esophageal microbial analysis.

European clinical practice guideline: managing and treating laryngopharyngeal reflux disease.

Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol

December 2024

Research Committee of Young-Otolaryngologists of the International Federations of Oto-rhino- laryngological Societies (YO-IFOS), Paris, France.

Objective: To propose a European consensus for managing and treating laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) to guide primary care and specialist physicians.

Methods: Twenty-three European experts (otolaryngologists, gastroenterologists, surgeons) participated in a modified Delphi process to revise 38 statements about the definition, clinical management, and treatment of LPRD. Three voting rounds were conducted on a 5-point scale and a consensus was defined a priori as agreement by 80% of the experts.

Acute pyelonephritis in adults. Should we adopt the pediatric guidelines?

Urologia

December 2024

Department of Urology & Pediatric Urology, Shaare Zedek Medical Center, Faculty of Medical Science, Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel.

Purpose: There are no guidelines, what recommend pro or against cystography for identification of VUR for adults who suffer from first episode of pyelonephritis. The aim of this study was to look at incidence of VUR in adults with first episode of pyelonephritis, and to highlight recommendations for possible reflux investigation in these patients.

Methods: We have performed retrospective review of all patients who admitted at our department over the last decade with the working diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis.

Background Esophageal cancer is a prevalent and highly lethal malignancy worldwide, comprising two main subtypes: esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). While both subtypes are frequently encountered, ESCC has historically been more common globally. However, in recent decades, EAC has emerged as the predominant type in industrialized nations, often developing from Barrett's esophagus, a condition driven by chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Management of symptomatic lymphoceles typically involves sclerotherapy and lymphangiography with embolization. When many afferent lymphatic channels are supplying a large-volume lymphocele, sclerotherapy is associated with high recurrence rate. This case presents a patient who underwent retroperitoneal lymph node dissection and developed a high-volume lymphocele that was compressing the ipsilateral ureter, causing hydronephrosis.
