Filter by:Wheezy infants were tested for gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) using combined multiple channel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH), esophagogastroduodenoscope (EGD), lipid laden macrophage index and BAL pepsin. Wheezy infants with abnormal MII-pH or reflux esophagitis were given domperidone and omeprazole then re-evaluated for symptoms control and exacerbations recurrence.
Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging which combines Narrow-band Imaging(NBI), Autofluorescence Imaging (AFI) and White-light Imaging (WLI) could be used to identify the indistinct changes in the gut caused by reflux disease,either acid reflux or bile reflux, which make it possible to differentiate reflux disease from functional dyspepsia (FD).
The purpose of this study is to compare on demand with continuous treatment of endoscopy negative subjects with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), with esomeprazole 20-mg once daily, with regards to willingness to continue in the study as a result of satisfactory treatment over a six-month long term management period, after initial symptom relief.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and dose-response relationship of IW-3718 administered orally to participants who have GERD and continue to experience GERD symptoms while receiving once-daily (QD), standard-dose proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).
When treating persistent heartburn from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) that does not respond to conventional treatment (a class of medications called proton pump inhibitors), it is important to be able to distinguish between erosive GERD and non-erosive GERD (called NERD). Currently the best method the investigators have to make this distinction is esophageal 24-hour pH and impedance testing. The test involves inserting a catheter into the esophagus through the nose and having the catheter maintained in this position for 24 hours This test is invasive, can be uncomfortable, and it is expensive and time consuming. The investigators are hoping that image enhanced technology will identify characteristics that are found more commonly in patients with non-erosive GERD compared to controls and therefore provide evidence that may allow us to replace pH and impedance testing with the image enhanced endoscopy as the best way to diagnose NERD. Participants will be either patients undergoing an upper endoscopy as part of their standard clinical evaluation for heartburn that does not respond to PPIs or patients undergoing standard clinical evaluation endoscopy for other reasons.
This study is being conducted in China to provide evidence for inclusion in applications to competent authorities that the Compound Sodium Alginate Oral Suspension sachet is effective in managing the symptoms of heartburn and acid regurgitation in patients with gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD).
The study evaluates the effect on gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) of infants sitting in a stable upright position during 20 min. This is an addendum to the previous study with record number clinical trials.gov NCT02124863
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) is considered the weight loss procedure of choice for patients suffering of gastro-esophageal reflux (GER). However, long term instrumental evaluations of GER after LRYGB are not available. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) on gastro-esophageal function.
China Survey of Proton Pump Inhibitor Empirical Treatment in Management of Outpatients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
The purpose of the study was to determine, whether patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) suffer from extra oesophageal reflux more often than patients with laryngeal cyst (control group).
