Step 9: Proximal and Distal Extension of Myotomy Once the mucosa has been exposed, the myotomy can safely be extended (see Figure 3).

The lower esophageal sphincter (LES) was examined with the distal openings with the slow-pull technique, and five water swallows to evaluate the LES relaxation. The esophageal body was studied by ...

Irradiation of 9,10-dicyanoanthracene (DCA) or p- chloranil in the presence of E -1-benzylidene-2-phenylcyclopropane (E - 5) in CH 2 Cl 2 causes E - 5 to undergo methylenecyclopropane rearrangement.

Discussion We observed that patients with esophagitis have a lower amplitude of primary and secondary contractions in the distal esophageal body and a lower proportion of secondary peristalsis than ...

BE-Smart represents a significant advance in diagnosis and management of Esophageal disease that affects an estimated 60 million people in the United States Study shows >95% success rate ...

Histologic confirmation, however, is essential for the diagnosis. Biopsies of the proximal and distal esophagus should be taken in clinically or endoscopically suspected esophagitis.

Objective The adductor muscles are implicated in the pathogenesis of groin strain, but the proximal morphology of this muscle group is poorly defined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ...

However, the extent to which lamins and nesprins regulate distal non-LAD chromatin interactions and isoform switching remain largely unexplored. 11, 12 This study aims to dissect the roles of lamin A, ...
