Modelling of Pharyngeal Laryngeal Effectiveness
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), …
Phagenyx® Registry Study
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).
The Efficacy and Safety of the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Procedure
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 …
Evaluation of Cell Changes in Blood and Tissue in Cancers of the Lung, Esophagus and Lung Lining
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 …
Evaluation of the Administration of Artificial Nutrition by Feeding Jejunostomy During Neoadjuvant Treatment on Postoperative Morbidity in the Context of Esophageal or Stomach Cancer
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.
Sonesitatug Vedotin in Combination With Capecitabine With or Without Rilvegostomig in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Gastric, Gastroesophageal Junction, or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Expressing Claudin18.2
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.
Neoadjuvant Treatment Modalities in Esophageal Cancer
Esophageal cancer is the most prevalent cancer globally with poor survival outcome. The prognosis with surgery alone is poor, accounting for 30-40% of overall survival at 5 year. Either neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCT) or chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) has been shown as efficatious therapy to improve patients outcomes in esophageal or esophagogastric junction …
Evolution of the Chicago Classification: Bridging Physiology and Mechanics
Swallowing difficulties are extremely common and result in substantial morbidity, reduction in the quality of life, and mortality related to malnutrition and complications from regurgitation and aspiration. Unfortunately, our understanding regarding the pathophysiology of dysphagia and GERD has been hampered by focusing predominantly on circular muscle activity and ignoring the …
Multicenter Prospective Cohort on Esophageal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection
In France in 2018, there were an estimated 2,074 new cases of esophageal adenocarcinoma and 3,224 cases of squamous cell carcinoma. The estimated deaths from esophageal cancer were 3,725, with a standardized 5-year net survival rate of 20% for cases diagnosed between 2010 and 2015, mainly due to late diagnosis. …
Biomarkers in Patients With Respiratory Tract Dysplasia or Lung Cancer, Head and Neck Cancer, or Aerodigestive Tract Cancer and in Normal Volunteers
RATIONALE: Studying samples of sputum and tissue in the laboratory from patients with dysplasia or cancer may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at biomarkers in patients with …
