Mid-esophageal mucosal impedance reflects mucosal integrity and phenotypes refractory reflux-like symptoms [PDF]

BMC Gastroenterology
Background Refractory reflux-like symptoms (rRLS) are frequently encountered in clinical practice and often reflect heterogeneous underlying mechanisms beyond acid exposure alone. Esophageal mucosal impedance has emerged as a marker of mucosal integrity,

Mean nocturnal baseline impedance, a novel metric of multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH monitoring in diagnosing gastroesophageal reflux disease

Therapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology, 2022
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disease with increasing prevalence worldwide. However, the diagnosis of GERD is challenging because there are no definite gold standard criteria.

Effects of Helicobacter pylori eradication on esophageal motility, esophageal acid exposure, and gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundThe effects of Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are yet to be fully elucidated. Few studies have investigated the mechanisms underlying the correlations between HP and GERD with prospective methods.

Indications of 24-h esophageal pH monitoring, capsule pH monitoring, combined pH monitoring with multichannel impedance, esophageal manometry, radiology and scintigraphy in gastroesophageal reflux disease?

The Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
Ambulatory esophageal pH monitoring is an essential method in patients exhibiting signs of non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) to make an objective diagnosis. Intra-esophageal pH monitoring is important in patients who are non-responsive to medications and

Comparative study of two modes of gastroesophageal reflux measuring: conventional esophageal pH monitoring and wireless pH monitoring

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012
CONTEXT: Esophageal pH monitoring is considered to be the gold standard for the diagnosis of gastroesophageal acid reflux. However, this method is very troublesome and considerably limits the patient's routine activities.
