Reflux Nephropathy

Medical Clinics of North America, 1978
The whole subject of reflux nephropathy, which may affect 1 in every 300 of the white female population, and is the second most common disease of the kidney in the young, is still bedevilled by a lack of information regarding many of its important aspects, and the absence of any coordinated action to obtain it.

Gastroesophageal reflux

The American Journal of Surgery, 1980
The incidence of recurrent reflux is higher than suggested by current reports and will increase when intensive postoperative follow-up becomes routine practice. The designs of all antireflux procedures need critical study and revision. The investigation and management of recurrent reflux demands far more attention than it has received in the past.

Prevalence of Laryngopharyngeal Reflux in a Population With Gastroesophageal Reflux

The Laryngoscope, 2007
AbstractObjective: Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is a syndrome associated with a constellation of symptoms usually treated by ENT surgeons. It is believed to be caused by the retrograde flow of stomach contents into the laryngopharynx, this being a supra‐esophageal manifestation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It has been cited that LPR and

Reflux and Cough

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2010
Reflux is a significant contributor to cough in otolaryngology practice; cough is just one marker of its many negative effects on the upper aerodigestive tract. Reflux causes cough both by direct irritation/inflammation and by increasing sensitivities to other noxious agents.

The Venous Reflux

Angiology, 2004
Venous reflux is the most common cause of venous hemodynamic disorders. In this paper 2 issues are discussed: how and where does reflux arise and what are the hemodynamic consequences of retrograde flow. Pressure gradient and incompetent vein connecting both poles of the gradient are the prerequisite for venous reflux to arise.

An Anti-Reflux Prosthesis in the Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1983
The Angelchik anti-reflux prosthesis, a C-shaped, silicone filled device surgically secured around the distal esophagus, received premarket approval by the Food and Drug Administration's Bureau of Medical Devices in 1979. Despite its use in over 9000 patients, there are few physiologic data documenting its effectiveness.

Bile Reflux in the Constellation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2005
Gastric acid and bile acids are a particularly noxious combination when they interact with the mucosa of the upper intestinal tract. There is a critical pH range, between 3 and 6, in which bile acids exist in their soluble, un-ionized form, can penetrate cell membranes, and accumulate within mucosal cells.

Primary vesicoureteric reflux and reflux nephropathy

2018
Vesicoureteric reflux (VUR) describes the flow of urine from the bladder into the upper urinary tract when the ureterovesical junction fails to perform as a one-way valve. Most commonly, VUR is primary, though it can be secondary to bladder outflow obstruction and can occur in several multiorgan congenital disorders. There is good evidence of a genetic
