Factors Contributing to Carbapenemase-Producing Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales
Researchers compared different factors among US veterans with and without carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales cultures.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
Hill Grade on EGD Is Associated With GER in Children and Adolescents
Investigators sought to evaluate the relationship between Hill grade confirmed with EGD and the degree of gastroesophageal reflux in children with GERD.
Dysphagia Prevalence, Characteristics Among Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Approximately one-sixth of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have demonstrated symptoms of dysphagia.
Refractory GERD Reduced With STRETTA in Patients With Prior Gastric Surgery
Investigators reviewed the outcomes of STRETTA in patients with refractory GERD who underwent prior gastric surgery.
Short Meal-to-Bed Time Associated With GERD in Women Who Are Pregnant
Investigators assessed the characteristics of GERD and the relationship between meal-to-bed-time and GERD during pregnancy.
Unexplained Gastrointestinal Disorders Remain Relatively Stable in a Specific Population Over 20 Years
Researchers analyzed the trends and prevalence of chronic, unexplained GI symptoms in a single community over a 20 year span.
Superior Symptom Control and Quality of Life with Surgery vs Medical Treatment of GERD
Researchers performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare different medical and surgical interventions in the treatment of GERD.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome May Reduce Hypopharyngeal Reflux Events in Laryngopharyngeal Reflux
A team of investigators conducted a prospective study to explore the profile of patients with OSAS and LPR at the HEMII-pH and to compare the reflux findings with LPR patients without OSAS.
pH Meter and pH Paper May Be Useful for Monitoring Tube-Fed Children With Neurologic Impairment and GERD
Investigators analyzed the agreement among pH paper, hand-held pH meters, and laboratory pH meters for gastric pH measurements in tube-fed children with neurological impairments and GERD.
Surgical Intervention for Acid-Reflux Control More Efficacious and Cost-Effective Than Long-Term PPI Use
Researchers assessed the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of proton pump inhibitors vs surgical intervention for acid reflux control.
