The current standard method for detection of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in infants and children is pH monitoring (pH probe). The addition of impedance probe measurements may or may not increase the ...

Ambulatory 24 h esophageal pH monitoring enables quantification of esophageal acid exposure and assessment of the temporal relationship between symptoms and acid reflux events. Analysis of pH ...

The incidence of GERD is on the rise, particularly in Asia. [24] Along with the increasing incidence of this disease, newer endoscopic and laparoscopic surgical techniques are also emerging for its ...

In a recent study published in Scientific Advances, researchers created a bioresorbable, cordless, passive sensor that monitors pH locally and detects stomach leakage early on. Study: Bioresorbable, ...

Sweat, which contains a wide range of biochemical markers, can tell us a lot about our health. Variations in sweat pH (i.e. acidity or alkalinity), for instance, can tell us whether our body is ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Inside a wound, a complex chemical battle unfolds. As healing progresses, the wound environment shifts between acidic and basic states, each change signaling different stages of ...
