Recent insights on functional heartburn and reflux hypersensitivity. [PDF]
Curr Opin Gastroenterol, 2022 Purpose of review Rome IV experts have proposed that gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) should be diagnosed only in patients with abnormal esophageal acid exposure, and that reflux hypersensitivity (RH) and functional heartburn (FH) both should be ...

Inconsistency in the Diagnosis of Functional Heartburn: Usefulness of Prolonged Wireless pH Monitoring in Patients With Proton Pump Inhibitor Refractory Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease. [PDF]
J Neurogastroenterol Motil, 2015 Background/Aims The diagnosis of functional heartburn is important for management, however it stands on fragile pH monitoring variables, ie, acid exposure time varies from day to day and symptoms are often few or absent.

Endoscopic-Guided Measurement of Mucosal Admittance can Discriminate Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease from Functional Heartburn. [PDF]
Clin Transl Gastroenterol, 2017 OBJECTIVES: A novel catheter that can measure mucosal admittance (MA), the inverse of impedance, was developed recently. In this pilot study, we aimed to clarify the usefulness of measuring MA for diagnosing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD ...

Dental evaluation is helpful in the differentiation of functional heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease. [PDF]
World J Gastroenterol, 2023 BACKGROUND Heartburn is identically the key symptom of both, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and functional heartburn (FHB), making the differential diagnosis resource-intensive. Oral manifestations of GERD can be easily examined; therefore, their
