The purpose of this observational study is to collect clinical information, blood, and tumor tissue samples from participants diagnosed with stage I, stage II, or operable stage III cancer in select solid tumors. The information collected will be used to develop tests to better understand cancer, for example, to improve …
Endoscopic esophageal variceal ligation combined with gastric variceal embolization using tissue glue is currently the first-choice method for preventing rebleeding in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. However, the rebleeding rate remains relatively high. Factors such as extra-luminal vascular bundles in the esophagus and stomach walls, and portosystemic shunts significantly …
The Mayo Clinic Conduit Report Card Questionnaires have been created in order to have a consistent evaluation tools for patients undergoing esophageal reconstruction or treatment or patients that are experiencing an upper digestive disease in order to standardize and validate outcome measures. Data will be used to establish the validation …
Digestive physiopathology is a branch of gastroenterology aiming to study patients with upper GI symptoms, mainly gastro-esophageal, potentially indicating the presence of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)/Barrett Esophagus (BE) or obstructive esophageal motility disorders (achalasia being the most relevant), but including also other primary motility disorders such as Esophgago-Gastric Junction Outflow …
The purpose of this study is to collect the signals of pharyngeal laryngeal activity through five non-invasive sensors (microphone, accelerometer, surface electromyography (EMG), nasal cannula and oximeter) in order to identify indicators of functional efficiency of swallowing, protection of the lower airways and phonation. 440 patients (subjects with swallowing disorders), …
A retrospective, open-label, matched-control registry study designed to characterize the effectiveness of Pharyngeal Electrical Stimulation (PES) to improve swallowing in patients with severe dysphagia post stroke when delivered using the Phagenyx® System in real-world clinical settings in hospitals in the United States of America (US).
Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with propofol. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation support, and oropharyngeal airway management. This device has been purposefully designed to …
Background Chromatin is is the structural building block of a chromosome. It is found inside the nucleus of the cell and consists of a complex of DNA and protein. Cancers of the lung, pleura (lung lining) and esophagus show profound changes in chromatin structure that may affect the course of …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sonesitatug vedotin in combination with capecitabine with or without rilvegostomig in first-line (1L) Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, gastric, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ), and esophageal adenocarcinoma.
Malnutrition is common at the time of diagnosis of esogastric cancers. However, there are no recommendations regarding preoperative nutritional support (type and duration) or on the impact of refeeding on postoperative morbidity and mortality.
