View clinical trials related to Gastroesophageal Reflux.
Filter by:This is a double-blind,randomised,placebo-controlled clinical trial.We would like to investigate the safety and efficacy of Jianpi Qinghua granule(a Chinese herbal compound) combined with half-dose omeprazole in treatment of non-erosive reflux disease(NERD).
The aim of this study is to establish a nationwide registry to collect data regarding the treatment of Barrett's Esophagus (BE) with radiofrequency ablation. The objective of this registry is to increase the number of data and therefore obtain a raise of quality assurance and improve outcome and patient security. Furthermore to provide participating physicians information and experience for treatment details in the therapy of BE.
The main aims of the study are to see the - side effects of Dexlansoprazole treatment - effectiveness of Dexlansoprazole treatment in children having symptomatic nonerosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Participants will take Dexlansoprazole by mouth once daily for 12 weeks
Melanole, a Nigella sativa (Black Seed) extract , is studied for the treatment of GERD. Participants, who meet the inclusion criteria, will be divided into two arms. Arm 1: Subjects who meet criteria for GERD will undergo 24 hour pH monitoring. Arm 2: Subjects who meet criteria for GERD and who undergo only symptomatic monitoring of GERD on treatment. All participants will be evaluated before and after the administration of the study product.
Respiratory dysfunction, esophageal dysmotility, and a gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) have been demonstrated to be highly prevalent in persons with SCI. GERD has been linked to respiratory symptoms and conditions such as asthma, chronic cough, and an increased rate of respiratory infections in the general population. In persons with asthma, respiratory symptoms and dependency on asthma medications have been reduced by treatment with anti-reflux medication. Possible mechanisms have been proposed for this link, including the microaspiration of reflux materials, which may result in airway acidification and aspiration pneumonia, or the stimulation of the vagus nerve through acid-sensitive receptors in the esophagus with associated esophageal inflammation and reflex bronchoconstriction. Investigators propose to study the effects of anti-reflux therapy (proton pump inhibition) in persons with SCI on objective and subjective symptoms of respiratory function to determine the underlying mechanisms of airway inflammation due to GERD.
Based on meta-analysis of prokinetics trials in laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) (Glicksman et al. 2014), well designed study was performed in 4 articles. But, those studies had several problems including inclusion criteria, randomization methods, and placebo medication. They had similar results that prokinetics and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) had synergistic effect for management of LPRD. Therefore, the aim of study is to evaluate the efficacy of prokinetics as an additional medication to proton pump inhibitor by well designed randomized double blind case-control study.
The aims of the study: To evaluate whether the use of a specific TENS technology can improve GERD symptoms and esophageal acid exposure.
The purpose of this registry is to evaluate information to determine which operations and treatments for gastroesophageal reflux disease or similar diseases of the stomach, esophagus or digestive tract are providing the most benefit including the long-term effects of treatment (or no treatment) and the progression of the disease over time.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of a low Fermentescible Oligosaccharides Disaccharides Monosaccharides and Polyols (FODMAP) diet in patients with documented refractory GERD on proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to test new methods to diagnose BE in time before it turns into advanced cancer. Once BE is diagnosed, the current standard of care is to monitor the disease so that complication such as cancer can be diagnosed early. The two new methods the investigators are evaluating are: a) blood test and b) brush test of the food pipe. The investigators will collect blood, bile and cells from the food pipe and stomach and measure for a biomarker called microRNA (miRNA). In the future, measurements of microRNA biomarkers could help the doctors figure out which patients are at increased risk for cancer of the esophagus.
