Background: Chicago classification version 4.0 suggests additional maneuvers, such as upright testing, multiple rapid swallows (MRS), and the rapid drink challenge (RDC), for high-resolution manometry (HRM) to minimize ambiguity in the diagnosis of esophageal motility disorders. The present study investigated normative thresholds for these new metrics using the Starlet system as well as their diagnostic yields for relevant esophagogastric outflow disorders (EGJOD).

A high level of physical fitness, especially cardiorespiratory fitness, is associated with lower incidence of hypertension. However, the relationship between flexibility, which is a component of physical fitness, and the incidence of hypertension is unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between flexibility and the incidence of hypertension in a cohort study.

Oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species is considered a major mediator of tissue and cell injuries in various neuronal conditions, including neurological emergencies and neurodegenerative diseases. Molecular hydrogen is well characterized as a scavenger of hydroxyl radicals and peroxynitrite. Recently, the neuroprotective effects of treatment with molecular hydrogen have been reported in both basic and clinical settings.
