The Prevalence and Clinical Characteristics of Reflux Esophagitis in Koreans and Its Possible Relation to Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]

, 2009
The prevalence of reflux esophagitis is increasing in Korea. To estimate the prevalence and clinical characteristics of reflux esophagitis in healthy subjects, we retrospectively examined the medical records of healthy subjects undergoing a routine check-

Characterization of bacterial biota in the distal esophagus of Japanese patients with reflux esophagitis and Barrett’s esophagus

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2013
BackgroundThe distal esophagus harbors a complex bacterial population. We hypothesized that a better understanding of bacterial communities in the esophagus would facilitate understanding of the role of bacteria in esophageal disease.

IFNγ Signaling Impairs Regulatory B Cell Function Resulting in Worse Control of Esophageal Food Allergy

Allergy, EarlyView.
We used patient samples and a murine model to understand the contribution of Bregs to EoE immunopathology. We find that Breg‐derived IL‐10 is important for controlling EoE, but that Breg expansion and function are impaired in this condition. We identify IFNγ as a key negative regulator of Breg function in mice and patients with EoE. Bregs, regulatory B

Background Factors of Reflux Esophagitis and Non-Erosive Reflux Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study of 10,837 Subjects in Japan

PLoS ONE, 2013
Background Despite the high prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), its risk factors are still a subject of controversy. This is probably due to inadequate distinction between reflux esophagitis (RE) and non-erosive reflux disease (NERD ...

Mepolizumab Effectiveness in Severe Asthma With/Without Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps: Real‐World Pooled Analysis

Allergy, EarlyView.
MEPOLYP was a pooled analysis of 1037 patients with SAEP[±]CRSwNP. Mepolizumab was associated with a reduction in CSEs, OCS use, and BEC, and improved lung function and ACT score. Over 47% of patients fulfilled ≥ 3 clinical remission criteria. When compared, there was a 30.0% incremental benefit of mepolizumab in reducing CSEs for patients with SAEP ...

Does Patient Sex Influence the Symptom Pattern for Patients With Gastro‐Oesophageal Reflux Disease and the Response of Symptoms to Fundoplication?

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that female patients experience lower satisfaction after anti‐reflux surgery. We hypothesised that there is a pattern of symptoms common to female patients presenting with GORD and that it is these symptoms in particular that lead to inferior outcomes.

Combined Lyon and Milan Scores Predict Gerd Management Outcome Better Than Either Score Alone or Their Individual Components

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Lyon and Milan scores outperformed AET and DeMeester score in predicting outcomes in GERD patients. When concordant, they provide optimal predictive accuracy, guiding escalation of therapy. ABSTRACT Background Confidence in gastro‐oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) diagnosis is crucial to improve outcomes from escalation of treatment. The Lyon score
