Esophageal function testing using multichannel intraluminal impedance.
Multichannel intraluminal impedance (MII) is a new technique for evaluation of bolus transport. We evaluated esophageal function using bolus transport time (BTT) and contraction wave velocity (CWV) of liquid, semisolid, and solid boluses. Ten healthy subjects underwent MII swallow evaluation with various boluses of sterile water (pH 5), applesauce, three different sized marshmallows, and iced a...
متن کاملEffect of Esophageal Distention on Basal and Stimulated Gastric Acid Secretion in Rats
It is well established that the esophageal distention (ED) leads to gastric relaxation, partly by vago-vagal reflex, but till now, the effect of ED on gastric acid secretion has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ED on basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion. Methods: Adult male Wistar rats (200-240 g) were deprived of food but not the water 24 h b...
متن کاملAirway responses to esophageal acidification.
The effects of esophageal acidification on airway function are unclear. Some have found that the esophageal acidification causes a small increase in airway resistance, but this change is too small to cause significant symptoms. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of esophageal acidification on multiple measures of airway function in chloralose-anesthetized cats. The esophagus...
متن کاملUpper esophageal ring due to gastric heterotopia
Heterotopic gastric mucosa (HGM) can occur in the foremidand hindgut and, conceivably, at any of their derivatives. The origin of HGM is either heterotopic (congenital) or metaplastic (acquired). The reported incidence of HGM in the endoscopic literature ranges from 0.29-10% but an incidence of up to 70% has been reported in autopsy studies. Heterotopic gastric mucosa patches have been reported...
