Role of Mixed Reflux and Hypomotility with Delayed Reflux Clearance in Patients with Non-cardiac Chest Pain
Background/Aims Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the most common cause of non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP). Currently available data reveal a weak relationship between NCCP and dysmotility. Moreover, it is unclear why some refluxes are perceived as heartburn and others as NCCP. We aimed to evaluate the role of the reflux pattern and the esophageal motility in patients with NCCP. Methods...
متن کاملClinical characteristics in patients with non-cardiac chest pain could favor gastroesophageal reflux disease diagnosis
BACKGROUND In patients with non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is thought to be the commonest cause. Ambulatory pH monitoring and/or endoscopy are usually performed in order to confirm GERD diagnosis. At present, clinical diagnosis of reflux in patients with NCCP is uncertain.The aim of the study was to determine clinical characteristics that could identify GE...
متن کاملFrequency of Esophageal Motility Disorders in Patients with Non-Cardiac Chest Pain
Background and purpose: Non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) is a common entity with negative effects on quality of life that places a large financial burden on health systems. This study aimed at investigating esophageal motility disorders in patients with NCCP. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 101 patients with recurrent chest pain without any cardiac disease, atte...
متن کاملRole of non-acid reflux in patients with non-erosive reflux disease
Non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) is the most common presentation of gastroesophageal reflux disease. Although acid reflux is the most important cause of symptom generation in NERD patients, non-acid reflux is also associated with reflux symptoms. The temporal relation between symptoms and reflux episodes is of importance in evaluating the results of combined pH-impedance monitoring in NERD pat...
