BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common causes of chronic cough and a potential risk factor for exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of GERD in patients with COPD and association between GERD and COPD exacerbation. METHODS Data were collected from the National ...
Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences located at the ends of chromosomes. Telomeres are shortened by repeated cell divisions and by oxidative DNA damage, and cells with critically shortened telomeres cannot divide. We hypothesized that chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)-induced injury of the esophageal squamous epithelium results in progressive telomeric shortening that eventually ...
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...
To examine gastrointestinal hormone profiles and functional changes in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), blood levels of the orexigenic hormone ghrelin were measured in rats with experimentally induced GERD. During the experiment, plasma acyl ghrelin levels in GERD rats were higher than those in sham-operated rats, although food intake was reduced in GERD rats. Although plasma levels of t...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is common in children. Recurrent exposure to gastric acid in GERD may contribute to tooth erosion. METHODS In this prospective study, 54 GERD patients qualified according to endoscopy, pH-metry, and the GERD questionnaire and 58 healthy controls qualified by the GERD questionnaire were assessed. Two groups underwent dental evaluations for...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is considered to be a common and chronic gastrointestinal disorder. The prevalence of GERD is believed to be less in Asia than in Western countries. Population-based data on GERD are lacking from India. The present study aimed at determining the prevalence of GERD symptoms in an adult Indian community and the potential risk factors asso...
INTRODUCTION Chronic cough is a common medical complaint, which may deteriorate patients' quality of life and cause many complications. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the frequent reasons for chronic cough. Oesophageal pH monitoring is one of the diagnostic methods performed to confirm diagnosis of GERD-related cough. The aim of the study was to analyse the utility of oesophag...
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and asthma are both common diseases, and hence they often coexist. However, the prevalence of coexistence of asthma and GERD is far more frequent than by chance association alone. In fact, the relationship between GERD and asthma was firstly described in the 19th century, by Willam Osler: "attacks may be due to direct irritation of the bronchial mucosa or....
results in total, 420 participants (25.7%) had gerd symptoms. risk factors with significant effects consisted of smoking, consumption of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nasids), overeating, chronic diseases, tea and coffee consumption and gerd in spouse. conclusions the prevalence of gerd among people living in mashhad was above the average prevalence in other cities of iran. however, ri...
BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its complications are thought to be infrequent in India; there are no data from India on the prevalence of and risk factors for GERD. The Indian Society of Gastroenterology formed a task force aiming to study: (a) the frequency and profile of GERD in India, (b) factors including diet associated with GERD. METHODS In this prospective, multi...
