Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease [PDF]
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2017 Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is a normal physiologic process. It is important to distinguish GER from GER disease (GERD) since GER does not require treatment. Although a diagnosis of GERD can largely be based on history and physical alone, endoscopy and pH impedance studies can help make the diagnosis when there in atypical presentation.

The use of a novel gradient heat flux sensor for characterization of reflux condensation [PDF]
Nucl. Eng. Des. 395, 111885 (2022), 2022 In this paper we present the developments in heat flux measurements using gradient heat flux sensors (GHFS). The GHFS is a sensor made of artificially created material with anisotropic thermo-electrical properties. Its properties including small size, robustness and low response time make it a valuable addition for characterizing heat flux in space ...
