Vesicoureteric reflux and reflux nephropathy
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2003Reflux nephropathy i.e. renal scarring associated with vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR) and urinary tract infection (UTI) was originally considered an acquired disease. The renal scarring seems to get worse with recurrent urine infections especially in the young.

Symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux as a risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma.
New England Journal of Medicine, 1999BACKGROUND The causes of adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastric cardia are poorly understood. We conducted an epidemiologic investigation of the possible association between gastroesophageal reflux and these tumors.

Vesicoureteral Reflux and Reflux Nephropathy
American Journal of Nephrology, 1982Vesicoureteral reflux is an anatomic abnormality, mostly affecting a pediatric population, which may be the second leading cause of end-stage renal failure. Most cases of reflux are due to abnormalities in the insertion of the ureters into the bladder, either congenital or acquired.

ESNM/ANMS consensus paper: Diagnosis and management of refractory gastro‐esophageal reflux disease
Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2020Up to 40% of patients with symptoms suspicious of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) do not respond completely to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. The term “refractory GERD” has been used loosely in the literature.

Gastroesophageal reflux in achalasia. When is reflux really reflux?
European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 1997An abnormal score during 24-hr esophageal pH monitoring in achalasia may be associated either with a slow steady drift to below pH 4, or else multiple sharp dips characteristic of typical gastroesophageal reflux. To test the hypothesis that the former pattern was due to food fermentation and not reflux, samples of chewed bland food (N = 22) were ...

Epidemiology of Reflux Disease and Reflux Esophagitis
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1989Symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux is a common medical problem. But only few data exist on the epidemiology of reflux disease (without inflammation) and reflux esophagitis. The literature is critically reviewed and ecological causes of gastroesophageal reflux are discussed. The prevalence of reflux esophagitis in Western countries is estimated to be 2%

PEDIATRIC GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX AND LARYNGOPHARYNGEAL REFLUX
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2000Pediatric gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) have gained better recognition over the past few years. GER and LPR usually present as regurgitation, emesis, epigastric pain, failure to thrive, esophagitis, or stricture. Many patients suffer respiratory disorders associated with reflux.

Reflux-induced laryngitis (laryngopharyngeal reflux) [PDF]
Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2006 Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has been increasingly associated with ear, nose, and throat (ENT) signs and symptoms. This condition, often referred to as laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) has become increasingly prevalent. However, the cause and effect relationship between GERD and laryngeal signs or symptoms is far from established. Many patients

Intrarenal reflux in primary vesicoureteral reflux
International Journal of Urology, 2012ObjectivesTo elucidate the significance of intrarenal reflux.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 276 patients (age <5 years) with grade III to V vesicoureteral reflux. They were divided into two groups: 55 patients with intrarenal reflux and 221 patients without intrarenal reflux (control group).
