Scarcity of recognition, knowledge and training leading to the underdiagnosis of these conditions is associated with increased referrals to gastroenterologists or emergency room visits, along with a dramatic rise in healthcare costs and impaired quality of life. Despite advances in endoscopy and radiology, motility and pH impedance procedures remain the cornerstone of an accurate \u201cDisorders of Gut-Brain Interaction\u201d diagnosis, but these procedures need to be performed by well-trained personnel in a dedicated motility unit, with high-performance equipment. The primary motility procedures include high-resolution esophageal manometry and pH monitoring for esophageal function, high-resolution anorectal manometry and balloon expulsion tests for anorectal function, as well as hydrogen\/methane breath tests for identifying dysbiosis and food intolerances. The purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of establishing a Neurogastroenterology and Motility Unit, and to provide an up-to-date overview on the main issues encountered when setting up a motility laboratory in the community or academic practice, including considerations for personnel training, equipment, and commonly performed motility procedures and their clinical usefulness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.15403\/jgld-6126","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,27]],"date-time":"2025-06-27T22:32:27Z","timestamp":1751063547000},"page":"250-255","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Unveiling the Unseen: Building a Neurogastroenterology Unit \u2013 Current Challenges in Clinical Practice"],"prefix":"10.15403","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Vasile","family":"Drug","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Oana Cristina","family":"Petrea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Oana","family":"Barboi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Teodora Surdea","family":"Blaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anca","family":"Dimitriu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ion","family":"Bancila","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Liliana","family":"David","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Diana","family":"Floria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anca","family":"Trifan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carol","family":"Stanciu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Radu","family":"Tutuian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dan L","family":"Dumitrascu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"6121","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,28]]},"container-title":["Journal of Gastrointestinal and Liver Diseases"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/jgld.ro\/jgld\/index.php\/jgld\/article\/download\/6126\/2206","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/jgld.ro\/jgld\/index.php\/jgld\/article\/download\/6126\/2206","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,27]],"date-time":"2025-06-27T22:32:27Z","timestamp":1751063547000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jgld.ro\/jgld\/index.php\/jgld\/article\/view\/6126"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,28]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,28]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.15403\/jgld-6126","relation":{},"ISSN":["1842-1121","1841-8724"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1842-1121","type":"electronic"},{"value":"1841-8724","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,28]]}}}
