Tongue Pressure in Middle-Aged and Elderly Individuals With Chronic Cervical Pain
The goal of the cross-sectional study is to explore the impact of neck pain on tongue pressure in the middle-aged and elderly population and analyze the effects of different cranio-cervical positioning on tongue pressure performance. The main questions it aims to answer are: Do middle-aged and elderly individuals with chronic …
RISK FACTOR ANALYSIS OF CHEWING AND SWALLOWING PERFORMANCE IN GERIATRICS
Various structural and functional problems in neural, sensory and perceptual, cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and musculoskeletal systems occur in geriatrics not associated with a specific disease. One of the problems observed in geriatrics is chewing and swallowing disorders. Failure to detect changes in chewing and swallowing performance in elderly individuals …
Effect of Esophageal Contractile Reserve on Changes in Esophageal Motility and Symptoms After ARS in Patients With GERD
rapid swallow (MRS) can assess the contractile reserve capacity of the oesophageal body and identify and diagnose oesophageal motility disorders, but the impact of preoperative oesophageal reserve capacity on postoperative symptoms and motility in patients with GERD remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of …
Impact of CES1 Genotype on Capecitabine Exposure in Cancer Patients
In this study, the drug capecitabine is investigated. Capecitabine is commonly used to treat breast, colon, and stomach cancers. Capecitabine is taken in tablet form. In the body, capecitabine is converted into the active molecule that has anti-cancer effects. This molecule is called 5-FU. The transformation of capecitabine to 5-FU …
Functional Imaging to Identify Radiosensitive Esophageal Cancer - a Biomarker Validation Study
This trial on biomarker validation investigates the use of innovative re-staging FDG-PET parameters to detect highly chemoradiation (CRT) sensitive squamous cell carcinomas of the esophagus (SCEC) at the end of preoperative or definitive CRT.
Multicenter Cohort Study of ESD and Chemo-radiotherapy for High-risk Early-stage Esophageal Cancer
This multicenter, prospective observational cohort study has the potential to optimize individualized chemoradiotherapy regimen for early-stage esophageal cancer patients who have received endoscopic submucosal dissection.
Understanding the Variation of Modern Endoscopic Ultrasound Use in Patients With Oesophageal Cancer (VALUE)
This is an observational trial that will look at patients undergoing endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in patients with oesophageal cancer and to determine the proportion of cases in which EUS changes disease management in these patients.
Developing Effectiveness Evaluation and Therapeutic Programs of Rehabilitation
Using robotics, sensors, and sEMG to develop clinic-oriented quantitative effectiveness evaluation and individualized programs of rehabilitation
Changes in Esophageal Distensibility With Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Esophageal Eosinophilia: A Pilot Study
This pilot study will explore whether treatment of eosinophilic inflammation in the esophagus is associated with an improved distensibility of the esophagus. Furthermore, previous studies of the esophagus using EndoFlip only measured distensibility of the distal esophagus, specifically the distal esophagus and esophagogastric junction. Eosinophilia in EoE has been demonstrated …
Esophageal and Gastric Registry and Biorepository
The evaluation of the foregut, the esophagus and stomach, has come a long way over the past two decades, and continues to experience exciting discoveries in the clinical evaluation of foregut physiology. Assessing esophageal peristalsis has relied for the past several decades on High Resolution Manometry (HRM), however it has …
