Alcohol is an irritant that causes long-term inflammation. This inflammation can weaken the LES, the valve that prevents stomach acid from backing up into the esophagus. This backup can lead to GERD symptoms such as heartburn, acid reflux and regurgitation.Alcohol does not cause GERD, but regul...

The troublesome perception of reflux in GERD patients is a multifactorial and complex phenomenon. Perception of reflux is influenced by multiple patient related factors, including altered perception due to peripheral sensitization of primary afferents and central sensitization of spinal dorsal horn neurons,...
Up to 25 to over 50% of infants develop functional gastro-intestinal disorders (FGIDs) [6,7]. As the spectrum of manifestations of FGIDs and mainly non-IgE mediated CMA do overlap, they may be difficult to separate leading to difficulty in distinguishing from FGIDs, GERD and CMA [8]. As...
This parallel nature of the system contributes to a global behavior that is defined as emergent. The unique properties of ANNs explain their computational power. Although many types and topologies of ANNs exist, one of the most common patterns consists of a set of interconnected nodes (termed ...
