Filter by:The objectives of this clinical trial are to assess in a pilot setting the overall performance and safety of the Endo GIA™ Stapler with Endo GIA™ SULU with Tri-Staple™ Technology when used in a gastric bypass procedure.
The purpose of this study is to provide data on the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) prevalence as percentage of patients with upper gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms that are identified with GERD using the Gerd-Q Questionnaire.
The purpose of the study is to compare sensitivity of visceral pain in the esophagus using different pain stimuli.
The purpose of this study is to examine the treatment profile of approximately 1,000 adult patients with gastroesophageal reflux who begin raberpazole sodium treatment for 4 months, and assess patients' adherence to the study drug.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the physiological function of sodium glutamate by measuring its effect on upper GI motility ( gastric emptying).
The purpose of this study is to compare the treatment effects of rabeprazole and lansoprazole depending on the genotyping (process of determining the genetic constitution) of CYP2C19 in treating reflux esophagitis (caused by gastroesophageal reflux; deterioration of the protective lining on the inner wall of the lower esophagus); and to evaluate the cure rate of reflux esophagitis on endoscopy (a thin flexible tube with a microscopic camera at the end which is passed down your throat into the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum) after treatment with rabeprazole and lansoprazole.
This study is being carried out to see whether AZD3355 is an effective treatment as an add-on to PPI therapy in patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) with a partial response to PPI and to compare this with Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) treatment alone. Another goal of the study is to examine which of the investigated doses of AZD3355 is optimal for treatment of these patients. This study will also measure levels of drug in the blood and see how well it is tolerated.
This is a prospective , epidemiological, multi-centre, phase IV study, approximately 5,000 patients who suffer with upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms. Each patient will be assessed for GERD with GerdQ Thai Version.
The purpose of this research study is to learn if a very low carbohydrate (sugar) diet or traditional low fat diet is able to reduce symptoms related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in people who are overweight. Patients with GERD may experience all or some of the following symptoms: stomach acid or partially digested food re-entering the esophagus (which is sometimes referred to as heartburn or regurgitation) and belching. In this study, the investigators also hope to find out if acid in the esophagus is reduced more by a low carbohydrate diet than a low fat diet.
Evaluate the prevalence of bronchial responsiveness (BHR) among patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Investigate correlation between bronchial reactivity and the severity of GERD, and similarly investigate the correlation between exhaled nitric oxide (NO) and the severity of GERD. Compare the effects of esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily and Nissen fundoplication on bronchial reactivity, exhaled NO, pulmonary function and quality of life.
