Filter by:Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children can be severe and lead to multiple complications, dizziness, esophagitis, respiratory failure or ENT infections. In the case of resistance to treatment with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), alternatives treatments includes antireflux surgery or fasting associated with parenteral nutrition. The use of gastrointestinal tubes (GJT) is relatively recent. Its objective is to allow a direct jejunal feeding, thus limiting the risk of severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Jejunal feeding using GJT has been compared to surgical techniques without finding any superiority. However, the risk of GERD recurrence appears to be greater if anti-reflux surgery is performed in a young child. As an alternative to anti-reflux surgery, prolonged parenteral nutrition (NPE) is burdened with its own morbidity (metabolic, infectious, vascular). In addition, the natural course of GERD is usually towards spontaneous improvement with the age and growth of the child. GJT may be used to postpone anti-reflux surgery and prevent NPE while waiting for spontaneous GERD improvement. In a cohort of 27 children, 5 did not require surgery or parenteral nutrition after placement of GJT . However, this study is difficult to analyze because of 9/27 deaths. Complications from GJT are common, ranging from obstruction requiring replacement to jejunal perforation. We will study the benefit of jejunal feeding on YSG for children followed for severe GERD.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic endoloop pre-test for gastroesophageal reflux before anti-reflux surgery or endoscopic treatment. In the study, the investigators used the novel pre-test to narrow the gastric cardia to control symptoms temporarily to decide whether to undergo irreversible surgery or endoscopic treatment.Thirty patients were enrolled and underwent endoscopic endoloop pre-test treatment. The Primary outcome in this study was measured by the percent reduction in post-procedure GERD symptoms as evidenced by analysis of the GERD-HRQL (Health Related Quality of Life) questionnaire. The secondary outcomes included improvement in esophageal 24-hr pH monitoring, improvement in quality of life questionnaires and safety. Patient follow-up assessments were completed at 7 and 14 days post treatment.
A Randomised, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial off the Efficacy and Rapidity of Action of a Product Containing Sodium Alginate, Calcium and Magnesium Salts, Hyaluronic Acid and Aloe Vera to Control Oesophageal-Gastric pH and Reduce Symptoms of Gastric Reflux and Hyperacidity.
In the past years, the adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) has been increasing obviously in China. It may be caused by the reason of increased body weight, alcohol consumption, gastroesophageal reflux disease and premalignant. In western countries, the 5-year rate of advanced AEG was less than 30%, it was the same in China. There was significant difference in epidemiology, pathogenic mechanism, biological characteristics and prognosis between AEG and antrum tumors, so AEG was regarded as a kind of independent disease. Up till now, the scope of lymph node dissected, the selection of operation approach, the resection range and the digestive tract reconstruction for the treatment of AEG were in dispute, especially in the reconstruction of digestive tract after operation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the proximal gastrectomy combined with Giraffe anastomosis for early adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the efficacy and dose-effect relationship of X842 capsules at different dosages in the treatment of reflux esophagitis for 4 weeks in comparison with lansoprazole enteric-coated capsules.
Researchers are trying to identify predictors for gastroesophageal reflux disease after sleeve gastrectomy.
GERD, is a common and chronic world-wide disease. Cardinal symptoms of this condition are heartburn-regurgitation, and sometimes with extra-intestinal symptoms that can affect patients' quality of life. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) potently inhibit gastric acid secretion and are widely used for treatment of acid-related diseases. This class of medications is the most widely used for the management of GERD. H2 Receptor Antagonists (H2RAs) are another type of medication used to of uncomplicated GERD, gastric or duodenal ulcers, gastric hypersecretion, and for mild to infrequent heartburn or indigestion. H2RAs decrease gastric acid secretion by reversibly binding to histamine H2 receptors located on gastric parietal cells, thereby inhibiting the binding and action of the endogenous ligand histamine. Dietary modification is endorsed by the National Institutes of Health and the American College of Gastroenterology as a first-line therapy for patients with GERD. The Gracie Diet is thought to play an important role in the prevention of GERD. The concept behind this diet is that the consumption of proper food combinations promotes optimal health by preventing unhealthy chemical reactions in the digestive process such as fermentation and acidity. This diet describes the benefits of combining different foods together and the downsides of combining others. It provides guidance on avoiding specific foods and combinations of foods that may aggravate GERD, and adopting meal spacing habits to improve overall health outcomes. The idea is that such dietary changes support more efficient digestion and encourage healthier lifestyles (i.e. smoking cessation, elimination of alcohol intake, avoidance of soda consumption and desserts). This diet also supports the acquisition of healthy eating habits characterized by higher consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and encourages a reduction in the intake of saturated fat, sodium, added sugars, and canned foods. Limiting beverage consumption of water or fresh coconut water between meals is also encouraged. In this pilot study, the investigators hypothesized that the Gracie diet it could be an alternative option to improve GERD symptoms in those patients who do not respond to standard doses of PPI and/or H2 receptor antagonists.
This study is aimed to investigate the role of long-term diet adherence on manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease
To evaluate the long-term incidence and effects of gastroesophageal reflux disease in the Chinese population after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
Many patients with acid reflux disease do not improve with regular doses of proton pump inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole). The goals of this clinical trial is the to see if taking MARIAL®, in combination with omeprazole, for one month improves symptoms of acid reflux disease compared to taking omeprazole alone. Furthermore, this study will verify the effectiveness of MARIAL® as a maintenance treatment for the next five months. This trial is called by the registered name GENYAL®.
