Esophageal stricture is the narrowing of the esophagus. The esophagus is a muscular tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach. Esophageal stricture makes it hard to swallow and move contents downward.
Esophageal stricture is typically caused by scar tissue that develops as a result of the following:
- Ingestion of damaging substances, such as household cleaning agents
- Treatment of esophageal varices—enlarged veins in the esophagus
- Injuries caused by an endoscope—a thin, lighted tube used to see inside the body
- Esophageal cancer
- Tracheoesophageal malformations
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your chance of esophageal stricture include:
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Prolonged use of a nasogastric tube—a tube that is inserted through the nose to the stomach
- Eosinophilic esophagitis
- Scleroderma
- Barrett's esophagus
- Certain medications, such as those used to treat osteoporosis, or some antibiotics
Esophageal stricture may cause:
- Difficulty swallowing
- Pain when swallowing
- Unintentional weight loss
- Regurgitation of food—when food flows back from the stomach into the esophagus or mouth
- Large chunks of food to get stuck in the esophagus
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests may include:
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Esophageal Dilation
Esophageal dilation is a procedure your doctor performs to stretch or widen your esophagus. An endoscope will be passed through your mouth and into the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. A small balloon or tapered plastic dilators will be used to stretch your esophagus. Repeat dilations are often required to adequately stretch the esophagus.
Proton Pump Inhibitors
When esophageal stricture is caused by GERD, proton pump inhibitors or acid-blocking medications are used to prevent the stricture from returning.
Surgery may be necessary if the stricture is too tight or wide.
To help reduce your chance of esophageal stricture:
- Follow your treatment plan if you have been diagnosed with GERD.
- Treat any other high risk cause as directed by your doctor.
- Avoid ingesting corrosive substances.
- Keep corrosive substances locked up and away from children.

Friday evening is the Brown County Relay for Life and it takes place on the Brown County Fairgrounds. The Relay is a great way to spend an evening with family walking to help find a cure for a disease that has affected so many people.
Friday evening is the Brown County Relay for Life and it takes place on the Brown County Fairgrounds. The Relay is a great way to spend an evening with family walking to help find a cure for a disease that has affected so many people.
The Relay is just one way our county works together to raise funds for cancer research and so much more. The proceeds from the local Relay are than turned over to the American Cancer Society.
Lately there has been so many people diagnosed with cancer it is hard to wrap my head around.
This year's Honorary Chairperson is Denise Clyne and the Honorary Caregiver is Joleen Wendinger.
The evening begins at 5 p.m. with the pork supper. The program will begin at 7 p.m. and the luminary lighting will take place at dusk.
If you've never been to this event, you really need to attend; and if you've been there, please keep coming to support it and those the disease affects.
Cancer not only affects the individual with the diagnosis, but affects their entire family, coworkers, friends, community and everyone they are affiliated with.
Thank God that today with medications and technology that have been developed, not all cancer is a death sentence like it was years ago. Research continues to develop new trials and programs for those fighting cancer to participate in, but more is needed.
There is much we can do to help as well. If you know someone who has been diagnosed, offer to drive them to an appointment for treatment; bring a lunch or dinner; bring healthy foods and snacks such as fresh fruits, vegetables or they may need high fat foods or drinks such as Ensure. Most of all, please pray for them, their family and that one day a cure will be found. Send messages such as "Thinking of You" cards. Continue to offer positive reinforcement and let them know they are never far from your thoughts and always in your prayers.
One day there will be no more cancer. "Imagine a World with more Birthdays." Brown County Chapter, Relay for Life.
Thought for the week: If your eyes are blinded with your worries, you cannot see the beauty of the sunset. – Krishnamurti.

Delaware is looking to become the first state to implement a comprehensive school safety plan. Previously the creation and implementation of such plans was in the hands of each individual school or district; however under the Omnibus School Safety Act, which was signed into law roughly eight months ago, responsibility was turned over to the Delaware Department of Safety and Homeland Security.
Delaware is looking to become the first state to implement a comprehensive school safety plan. Previously the creation and implementation of such plans was in the hands of each individual school or district; however under the Omnibus School Safety Act, which was signed into law roughly eight months ago, responsibility was turned over to the Delaware Department of Safety and Homeland Security.
"Though all schools have school safety plans, the quality of them has been quite mixed," said Gov. Jack Markell. "We were committed to fixing that."
The act designates school staff as first responders and it allows emergency services personnel the tools necessary to access school safety information.
Markell, Sen. Bryan Townsend (D-Newark) and Safety and Homeland Security Secretary Lewis Schirillo made a presentation at Polytech High School in Woodside on Wednesday, announcing progress of the creation and implementation of the plans.
The primary tool that the state is using to facilitate the sharing of information between the state, the schools and the first responders is SafePlans, a cloud-based emergency preparedness application. Brad Spicer, president and CEO of SafePlans was on hand to explain the role the software will play.
"It will be a web-enabled tool where school officials will go on and complete their plans online and [the software] will generate mobile apps, PDFs and turn [the plan] into a living document," Spicer said. "As the state establishes new best practices over time, they're going to be able to go into one location in the software and make a change and efficiently roll that out to all schools in the state."
The software will serve as the repository where the school emergency response data, pictures of the school and school building plans can be accessed by school employees and emergency services personnel in the event of an emergency. The data can be accessed by computer, tablet or smart phone. Each school will also have a print copy of the same information.
The software also includes online training programs which will be administered to every teacher and substitute teacher in the state to ensure that they are aware of how to respond in an emergency.
Schools will also be able go through a security assessment of their campus.
The SafePlans software has already been put through its paces. The United States Department of Homeland Security has designated the software as a certified anti-terrorism technology.
A process for implementing the comprehensive plans and the software has been created. Joint planning meetings will be held in each county, bringing together educators and public safety personnel. In these meetings what Spicer called "best practices" will be identified in order for schools to establish proper responses to emergency situations.
These procedures will then be tested in districts to ensure the effectiveness of emergency response procedures and the efficiency of the software. A second round of tests will be conducted before the plans are implemented, Spicer said.
Statewide implementation will begin in August and is slated to be complete by the beginning of January 2014. After implementation, tabletop exercises, which are essentially simulations where school personnel practice responding, will be conducted and additional training programs will be given.
"This is an exciting step along the way. We knew that when we signed the Omnibus School Safety Act that that was an important step, but that was just the beginning," Markell said. "So now the hard work has already started. A couple dozen schools have already done their plans, but this allows us to take it to scale."

The Jeffco school board took serious actions on Jan. 14 related to managing school facility capacity. The district's student population has steadied at about 80,000-plus kids, and students "choicing" in and out of neighborhood schools have affected the numbers of kids at different schools.
Ken Caryl Middle School was on the block at one point so Jeffco could fill more seats at Deer Creek Middle School. A walk-through of the Deer Creek facility showed insufficient library, gym and cafeteria space for the roughly 1,200 kids that would be in that building.

Good Samaritan 1, Grinch 0.
Just a week after a heartless thief picked Christmas time to make off with a blind woman's Apple iPad, the holiday spirit has been restored.
A generous donor Wednesday presented a new computer tablet to Tara Young, a 36-year-old single mother who has come to rely on the device.
"It's pretty overwhelming," she said this morning. "I didn't expect this."
The donation came two days after the Butler Eagle reported on Young's plight.
The iPad was at her sister's house, which is next to Young's house on Route 38, when it was snatched.
The $795 gadget, which Young won at a gun raffle sponsored by the Chicora Volunteer Fire Department in August, was equipped with special software.
It permitted images and text that are visual on the iPad to be made into audio for people who are blind or visually impaired. It also had an application that allowed her to identify money.
Pittsburgh's three television stations later picked up the story and aired their own reports.
Stacy Rhome of Canonsburg, Washington County, viewed one of the reports and was moved to help despite not even knowing Young.
She delivered the new iPad to Young at the television studio.
But Rhome's good was shared by others.
Two compassionate strangers reached out to the Butler Eagle, seeking information on how they, too, could provide Young with a replacement iPad.
One of those strangers, a Butler woman, wanted to remain anonymous.
"I read about what happened in the paper and I want to help," the woman said Wednesday in extending her offer of help. "That iPad is important to her. It's her lifeline."
State police, who continue to investigate the theft, said they have gotten similar calls from people wanting to help Young.
The Wal-Mart store in Washington, Pa., meanwhile, provided her with a gift card to purchase blind-friendly applications for the device.
Young said she was stunned after learning that so many people wanted to help her.
"It's hard to put into words how I feel," she said. "But it sure feels good.

It is estimated that around 215,000 people in the UK have chronic hepatitis C, but there may be some good news for those suffering.
A new pill treatment that is said to offer a "cure" for the chronic liver disease has been launched in the UK.
The drug daclatasvir can rid 90% or more patients of the infection in 12 weeks when combined with other agents.
Used with another pill, sofosbuvir, it has produced clinical cure rates of 89% and 98% in patients with different viral strains.
Standard treatment for hepatitis C involves injections of the immune system stimulator interferon and can have serious side effects. It typically yields cure rates of 60% to 80%.
The launch of daclatasvir makes a daily pill-only treatment for the disease available that brings eradication of hepatitis C a step closer.
Charles Gore, chief executive of the Hepatitis C Trust, said: "We are delighted by today's announcement.
"Each new treatment for hepatitis C takes us closer to making the elimination of hepatitis C a realistic possibility, by improving both cure rates and tolerability.
"With only 3% of people with hepatitis C in England accessing treatment each year, it is crucial patients are able to access new treatments as early as possible so they have the opportunity to get cured of this cancer-causing virus."
Hepatitis C, a blood-borne virus commonly spread by drug takers sharing needles, can hide for years without producing symptoms before leading to potentially fatal liver damage or cancer.
Deaths from the infection have almost quadrupled in the UK since 1996. Each year, more than 200,000 people are infected, but up to a half go undiagnosed.
The Hepatitis Time Bomb, Fuelled by the War on Drugs
Trial results showing the effectiveness of the pill treatment were hailed as a "turning point" by experts when they emerged in April.
Dr Kosh Agarwal, from the Institute of Liver Studies at King's College London, who took part in the research, said: "Over the last decade we have seen an alarming rise in the number of deaths and hospital visits caused by people with hepatitis C.
"The launch of this treatment is welcome news as it represents an important new option for patients with chronic hepatitis C that can offer high cure rates for some patients, and be taken as a pill.
"Another significant point is that this treatment removes the need to use interferon, which is a widely used medicine that often makes patients feel extremely unwell."
When daclatasvir is combined with interferon-alpha and the pill drug ribavirin, it can cure 100% of patients with the less common genotype 4 strain of the virus.
Johanna Mercier, general manager of the pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers Squibb in the UK and Ireland, which makes the drug, said: "We are committed to improving the quality of life of patients living with hepatitis C and paving the way to cure this chronic and devastating condition.
"Study results have highlighted that daclatasvir has the potential to offer high cure rates, notably offering some of its most successful results in genotypes 1 and 3, which account for 90% of all hepatitis C cases in the UK."
In January daclatasvir was brought forward for priority review by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in recognition of the unmet treatment need.
The drug belongs new to a new family of pharmaceuticals called NS5A inhibitors which target a specific protein in the hepatitis C virus.

Sueflohn improves to 17-3 on the season with an 8-2 record in duals.
No. 4 James Green looked to keep the momentum going for Nebraska at 157 pounds but fell by a 3-1 decision against No. 6 Dylan Alton. Following a scoreless first period, Alton escaped to take a narrow 1-0 lead before a late takedown in the third to clinch the victory. Green suffered his first loss in dual competition and falls to 15-2 overall.
At 165 pounds, senior Tyler Koehn started for the Huskers against No. 2 David Taylor. Koehn trailed throughout in a 16-1 technical fall loss that gave Penn State a 21-6 lead.
No. 4 Kokesh responded at 174 pounds with a 10-7 decision over No. 3 Matt Brown to cut the lead to 21-9. Kokesh extends his winning streak to 21 as he improves to 26-1 on the season with a 12-1 dual mark.

Help people and give your mind a workout, too.
If you are not afraid of people, computers, tax returns, challenges, and learning new things, we may have just the volunteer opportunity for you.
Help people and give your mind a workout, too.
If you are not afraid of people, computers, tax returns, challenges, and learning new things, we may have just the volunteer opportunity for you. AARP Tax-Aide, the nation's largest free volunteer-run tax preparation and assistance service, is looking for more volunteers to help low- and moderate-income families prepare and file their individual tax returns next season.
Volunteers do not need to be an AARP member or retiree to participate. We do need volunteers who have basic computer skills and the personal drive necessary to learn and become proficient with new tax return preparation software provided by the IRS.
AARP Tax-Aide volunteers receive comprehensive tax training, are provided access to all computer equipment required and are reimbursed on a limited basis for qualified program-related expenses.
They learn new skills while making a real difference in their communities.
Kansas Tax-Aide District 12 has a special need for additional volunteers to help serve in central Kansas.
"It is heartwarming to be a part of helping more than 1,900 families in our district each season," said Shirley Glass, volunteer district coordinator from Hutchinson. "But we really need additional volunteers in the communities of McPherson, Newton and Hutchinson in order to maintain our level of service."
Jonie James, McPherson County Extension Agent, will be the site coordinator for McPherson County. It has been a few years since McPherson County has been able to offer a site, so volunteers are essential and needed in order to make it successful.
Contact James at 620-241-1523 to learn more about volunteering.
AARP Tax-Aide is a program of the AARP Foundation, offered in conjunction with the IRS.

When he was young, Cadeem Gibbs was really into school. Bright, curious, and naturally rebellious, he enjoyed arguing the opposing point of view in a classroom discussion just to see how well he could do it. "I was always academically inclined," says the Harlem native, now 24. "I always wanted to learn."
But there were plenty of stressors in his young life—a violent upbringing, a household in poverty—and the struggle to navigate them pulled him away from his education. He started getting into trouble and ended up in the juvenile justice system at the age of 12. That first contact with "the system" began a 10-year cycle of incarceration that ended only when Gibbs was released from an upstate New York prison two years ago, at the age of 22. He was just a sixth grader when first arrested, but he would never complete a school year as a free child again.
Americans believe that education is the great equalizer, the key that opens the door to a better future and lifts young people out of poverty. And this is true, to an extent—those who finish high school or college have lower unemployment rates and higher incomes than those who don't. But while people who don't complete their education are more likely to stay in poverty, they're also more likely to come from poverty. In the 21st century, so-called reformers have emerged to prescribe everything from charter schools to iPads in order to boost poor students' educational achievements.
Ignored is a trifecta of policies that prevent young people in poverty from finishing their education: high-stakes testing and the high-stakes discipline that comes with it; weak to nonexistent federal policy concerning education for those young people already involved with the juvenile justice system; and a lifetime of background checks that keep the formerly incarcerated from gaining degrees and finding jobs.
These intersecting policies, which push kids out of school and into a punitive legal system, are collectively known as the "school-to-prison pipeline." But the individuals who emerge at the end of that pipeline, though criminalized, are still young people—a population that has a reasonable expectation to receive an education. So what happens to a young person's schooling when he or she is taken out of the classroom and put behind bars?
For poor students of color, like Gibbs, the problems can begin early. These children were the target of George W. Bush's No Child Left Behind law, which was passed in 2002. The law mandated 100 percent student proficiency in math and reading by 2014. Schools that failed to make adequate yearly progress faced a set of sanctions ranging from staff firings and restructuring the school, to turning it into a charter school or handing it over to private management. Terrified of missing the NCLB guidelines, schools got rid of students who might hold back their numbers. Suspensions, expulsions, and school-based arrests skyrocketed in the wake of the new law, pushing hundreds of thousands of students out of school and, frequently, into the justice system. Such policies disproportionately affect students of color and students with disabilities—compared with their white peers, black youths are three and a half times more likely to be expelled and, if arrested, nine times more likely to receive an adult prison sentence. Even though overall youth crime has decreased since 1999, youth punishment has not: From 1999 to 2008, the number of total youth arrests fell more than 15 percent, while the number of juvenile-court cases remained virtually the same, falling only 4 percent. This means that while fewer young people are getting arrested, they continue to be processed through the system at the same high rates.

Abcam's IL-17 Mouse ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of mouse IL-17 in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.
This assay employs an antibody specific for mouse IL-17 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and IL-17 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-mouse IL-17 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IL-17 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

I read with incredulous amusement the recent letter by Douglas Berkley; like a good PR man, Berkley does a great job of spinning the truth in an attempt to discredit the hard work of Joseph McMurry.
Like any good snake oil salesman, Berkley, first, must convince us he's an expert. Then he needs to convince us we need snake oil. Then, finally, because snake oil is questionable, at best, he must convince us that anyone who thinks snake oil is not worth pursuing is disreputable.
True to form — Berkley claims he works in the shale industry. That sort of declaration carries some weight; it suggests some expertise. I did a little searching and found that Berkley's "expertise" is in marketing and development. Selling shale gas is where his expertise lies. His bread is buttered by the industry; he's got a vested interest in pumping it up. He is no more expert in the technical aspects of shale gas than McMurry (probably less so).
Berkley tells us, "Science shows us the real benefits and blessings from shale gas." Berkley would have us believe that science has reached a consensus: shale gas is good for us. That sort of statement should set off alarm bells when he doesn't bother to back anything up. The truth is, McMurry provides us with an exhaustive list of doubters in the scientific community.
Next, Berkley engages in a bit of subterfuge; he suggests that "reports" have been debunked and then goes on to cast aspersions about the authors of those "reports" — "noted anti-fracktivists" — and, for good measure suggests that there was no attempt to include "hard science." Of course, he provides little evidence to support his claims of debunked science.
Obviously, Berkley didn't bother to read McMurry's exhaustive report. There are a number of reputable scientific studies, not debunked. There are internationally known experts (read scientists) cited. Scientists are not partisans; scientists are systematic observers and subject to rigorous peer review. Unlike Berkley, they don't shoot from the hip.
In addition to the hard science, there are news reports. There are first-person accounts. There are summaries of DEP-issued violations. On and on, McMurry's compendium boxes poor Berkley in. Berkley resorts to the only tool he has left: obfuscation. He hopes that if he sows doubt, people won't bother to read McMurry's report (http://www.scribd.com/doc/139366186/J-P-McMurry-Frack-Report).
McMurry must have foreseen this avenue of attack. Right after the title page, McMurry quotes Mark Twain: "The most difficult thing in the world to do is to try to convince a man that something is true if his livelihood depends on it not being true."
I'd add this corollary to Twain's observation: If a man's livelihood depends on something, he's going to try to convince you it's good for you even if it isn't.
