Do neither antioxidants nor COX-2 inhibition protect against esophageal inflammation in an experimental model of severe reflux?
In this model of reflux injury, antioxidants and COX-2 inhibitors failed to ameliorate the severe inflammation induced. Further experimental designs should evaluate these novel approaches in less severe experimental models.
Control of SBP after ESD is important for the prevention of post-ESD bleeding because hypertension as a comorbidity, which is associated positively with SBP after ESD, is a significant risk factor for post-ESD bleeding.
