Ineffective esophageal motility is associated with diabetes mellitus end organ complications. Neurogastroenterol Motil 2024; 36:e14826. [PMID: 38873936 DOI: 10.1111/nmo.14826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is known to induce a wide range of harmful effects on several organs, notably leading to ineffective esophageal motility (IEM). However, the relationship between DM and IEM is not fully elucidated. We aimed to determine the relationship between DM and IEM and to evaluate the impact of DM's end organ complications on IEM severity. METHODS A multicenter cohort study of consecutive patients undergoing high-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM) was performed. We reviewed medical records of patients diagnosed with IEM using HREM, encompassing data on demographics, DM history, antidiabetic and other medications as well as comorbidities. KEY RESULTS Two hundred and forty six subjects met the inclusion criteria. There was no significant difference in any of the HREM parameters between diabetics and nondiabetics. Out of 246 patients, 92 were diabetics. Diabetics with neuropathy presented a significantly lower distal contractile integral (DCI) value compared to those without neuropathy (248.2 ± 226.7 mmHg·cm·sec vs. 375.6 ± 232.4 mmHg·cm·sec; p = 0.02) Similarly, the DCI was lower in diabetics with retinopathy compared to those without retinopathy (199.9 ± 123.1 mmHg·cm·sec vs. 335.4 ± 251.7 mmHg·cm·sec; p = 0.041). Additionally, a significant difference was observed in DCI values among DM patients with ≥2 comorbidities compared to those without comorbidities (224.8 ± 161.0 mmHg·cm·sec vs. 394.2 ± 243.6 mmHg·cm·sec; p = 0.025). Around 12.6% of the variation in DCI could be explained by its linear relationship with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), with a regression coefficient (β) of -55.3. CONCLUSION & INFERENCES DM is significantly associated with IEM in patients with neuropathy, retinopathy, or multiple comorbidities. These results are pivotal for tailoring patient-specific management approaches.

Abstract
Dysphagia is a common manifestation of endocrine and metabolic diseases. Swallowing is a complex neuromuscular process, with an interplay of sensory and motor function, that has voluntary and involuntary control. Disruptions in any of these processes can cause significant dysphagia. Endocrine disorders and metabolic derangements are systemic conditions that affect multiple organ systems. They contribute to the development of neuropathies, myopathies, and motility disorders that lead to swallowing difficulty. Malnutrition and critical illness can lead to deconditioning and atrophy which can cause dysphagia, which in turn can lead to further malnutrition and deconditioning.

Abstract
Background Aspiration Pneumonia (AP) is a leading cause of death in patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS). Early detection, diagnosis and effective prevention measures are crucial for improving patient prognosis. However, there is a lack of research predicting AP occurrence after AIS. This study aimed to identify risk factors and develop a nomogram model to determine the probability of developing AP after AIS. Method A total of 3258 AIS patients admitted to Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University between January 1, 2016, and August 20, 2022, were included. Among them, 307 patients were diagnosed with AP (AP group), while 2951 patients formed the control group (NAP group). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify relevant risk factors for AP after AIS. These factors were used to establish a scoring system and develop a nomogram model using R software. Results Univariate analysis revealed 20 factors significantly associated (P < 0.05) with the development of AP after AIS. These factors underwent multivariate logistic regression analysis, which identified age (elderly), National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, dysphagia, atrial fibrillation, cardiac insufficiency, renal insufficiency, hepatic insufficiency, elevated Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG), elevated C-Reactive Protein (CRP), elevated Neutrophil percentage (NEUT%), and decreased prealbumin as independent risk factors. A nomogram model incorporating these 11 risk factors was constructed, with a C-index of 0.872 (95 % CI: 0.845-0.899), indicating high accuracy. Calibration and clinical decision analyses demonstrated the model's reliability and clinical value. Conclusion A nomogram model incorporating age, NIHSS score, dysphagia, atrial fibrillation, cardiac insufficiency, renal insufficiency, hepatic insufficiency, FBG, CRP, NEUT%, and prealbumin effectively predicts AP risk in AIS patients. This model provides guidance for early intervention strategies, enabling the identification of high-risk individuals for timely preventive measures.

Int J Surg 2023; 109:1239-1248. [PMID: 37026848 PMCID: PMC10389471 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000000274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, the reported parameters that predict the resolution of symptoms after surgery are largely subjective and unreliable. Considering that fundoplication rebuilds the structural integrity of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), the authors focused on searching for objective and quantitative predictors for the resolution of symptoms based on the anatomical issues and whether an antireflux barrier can be well established or not. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors reviewed the prospectively collected data of 266 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who had undergone laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication (LNF). All patients were diagnosed with GERD using preoperative esophagogastroduodenoscopy, 24-h ambulatory esophageal pH monitoring, and high-resolution esophageal manometry. The patients received GERD symptom surveys using the validated Korean Antireflux Surgery Group questionnaire twice: preoperatively and 3 months after the surgery. RESULTS After excluding patients with insufficient follow-up data, 152 patients were included in the analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that a longer length of the LES and lower BMI determined better resolution of typical symptoms after LNF (all P <0.05). Regarding atypical symptoms, higher resting pressure of LES and DeMeester score greater than or equal to 14.7 were associated with better resolution after the surgery (all P <0.05). After LNF, typical symptoms improved in 34 out of 37 patients (91.9%) with a length of LES >greater than .05 cm, BMI less than 23.67 kg/m 2 , and atypical symptoms were resolved in 16 out of 19 patients (84.2%) with resting pressure of LES greater than or equal to 19.65 mm Hg, DeMeester score greater than or equal to 14.7. CONCLUSION These results show that the preoperative length and resting pressure of LES is important in the objective prediction of symptom improvement after LNF.

Prevalence of Different Types of Primary Esophageal Motility Disorders and Their Associated Factors in Patients Referring to Shariati Hospital during 2018-2019. Middle East J Dig Dis 2022; 14:70-76. [PMID: 36619723 PMCID: PMC9489321 DOI: 10.34172/mejdd.2022.258] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Esophageal motility disorders (EMDs) are common in patients with dysphagia and are effectively diagnosed with high-resolution manometry (HREM). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of different types of primary EMDs in patients referred for HREM and to further investigate the factors associated with EMDs. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, all patients referred to the endoscopy section of Shariati Hospital during 2018-2019 (279 patients) were subjected to HREM and were evaluated according to their diagnosis, and the effect of each factor and each symptom on motility disorders was investigated. RESULTS: 84.5% (235) of the participants were diagnosed with at least one esophageal motility disorder; of them, achalasia was the most common form (52.6%). None of the predictive factors showed a statistically significant correlation with EMDs. However, regarding the symptoms, regurgitation and nocturnal cough were significantly more common in patients with EMD (P=0.001 and 0.009, respectively). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the high prevalence of EMDs in patients undergoing manometry. None of the factors studied, such as age, sex, diabetes, hypothyroidism, smoking, and alcohol and opium consumption, had a statistically significant correlation with EMDs.
