Computer-assisted personalized sedation for upper endoscopy and colonoscopy: a comparative, multicenter randomized study

SEDASYS System could provide endoscopist/nurse teams a safe and effective on-label means to administer propofol to effect minimal to moderate sedation during routine colonoscopy or EGD.

Pharyngeal anesthesia during sedated EGDs: is "the spray" beneficial? A meta-analysis and systematic review

Pharyngeal anesthesia is widely used as an adjunct to sedation during an upper endoscopy. This study evaluated the effectiveness of pharyngeal anesthesia in improving patient tolerance and ease of endoscope used. From a pool of 53 studies, 5 RCTs evaluated a total of 491 patients and provided interpretable data.

Efficacy, Safety, and Long-term Outcome of Serial Endoscopic Balloon Dilation for Upper Gastrointestinal Crohn's Disease-associated Strictures-A Cohort Study

Pneumatic dilation of upper GI CD-associated strictures has a high rate of short-term technical and clinical success, with moderate long-term efficacy and acceptable complication rates

Initial experience of videocapsule endoscopy for diagnosing small-bowel tumors in patients with GI polyposis syndromes

Small-bowel tumors frequently occur in familial adenomatous polyposis syndromes. These tumors are difficult to detect with conventional techniques.

Catheter-free method is sufficient for preparation for transnasal endoscopy: randomized controlled trial

Transnasal endoscopy (TNE) has some disadvantages, such as complicated preprocessing and occasional repulsion reactions during catheterization. In an attempt to simplify the preprocessing method, the efficacy of a catheter-free method was assessed

Global prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome according to Rome III or IV criteria: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common functional bowel disorders. Community prevalence appears to vary widely between different countries. We did a systematic review and meta-analysis of data from all population-based studies.
