High-Flow Nasal Cannula for Preventing Hypoxia During Sedated Endoscopy in High-Risk Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients
Hypoxia represents the most frequent adverse event during propofol-sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy. The STOP-BANG questionnaire serves as a widely adopted, straightforward tool for screening obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) risk, with a score ≥5 identifying high-risk OSA patients who are particularly susceptible to hypoxia under sedation. Although preliminary research from our team …
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 …
Volatile Organic Compounds as Breath Biomarkers in Squamous Oesophageal Neoplasms
Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is a cancer of the food pipe that affects around 2000 patients in the UK every year. It is often detected at an advanced stage, resulting in poor survival (5-year survival less than 20%). Early detection can improve survival (5-year survival \>70%). Therefore, early detection …
Distribution of Lymph Node Metastases in Esophageal Carcinoma
Background: Lymph node status is an important prognostic parameter in esophageal carcinoma and an independent predictor of survival. Distribution of metastatic lymph nodes may vary with tumor location, tumor histology, tumor invasion depth and neoadjuvant therapy. Surgical strategy depends on the distribution pattern of nodal metastases but consensus on the …
Prospective Multicenter Screening for Thoracic Disease Via Radiography
This multicenter, prospective study aims to evaluate the real-world clinical utility of chest X-ray (CXR) for large-scale thoracic disease screening. Adult participants presenting for health examinations will undergo digital CXR screening, and any suspected abnormalities will be confirmed via a gold standard reference, such as a chest CT scan or …
Registry Platform Gastric/Esophageal Cancer (SAPHIR)
The registry aims to collect and analyse information on the antineoplastic treatment of patients with metastatic esophageal, gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer, treated in palliative intention in daily routine practice in Germany.
Postoperative Hypoxemia Increases the Risk of Anastomotic Leak After Radical Esophagectomy
This study aims to determine whether postoperative hypoxia (arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂)\<80 mmHg) is an independent risk factor for anastomotic leakage after esophagectomy. The investigators conducted a retrospective analysis of cases from their center over the past five years, stratifying patients into Low Pa0₂ Group and Normal Pa0₂ …
Chemoradiotherapy in Esophageal or Esophagogastric Junction Cancer
Definitive chemoradiotherapy is the standard of care in unresectable esophageal or esophagogastric cancer. A multidisciplinary approach, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, is important for these patients. Morerover, molecular targeting agents does not show clear efficacy in EC up to now. Nowadays, the pace of development of cancer immunotherapies is accelerating. Clinical …

The purpose of this study is to learn more about problems with swallowing that could develop in patients who are very sick and need a machine to help them breathe.
Prospective Evaluation of the Clinical Utility of Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy for Gastrointestinal Motility Disorders
This is prospective data recording study. All patients will receive standard medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed.
