Incorporating body mass index into esophageal manometry metrics and mean nocturnal baseline impedance for the evaluation of gastro-esophageal reflux disease

This study aims to enhance the effectiveness of high resolution manometry (HRM) and pH-impedance monitoring metrics in distinguishing between gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) and non-GERD. A retrospective propensity score matching (PSM) study was conducted on 643 patients with GERD symptoms. PSM matched 134 GERD patients with 134 non-GERD controls. Body mass index (BMI), intra-esophageal pressure (IEP) and intra-gastric pressure (IGP) were significantly higher in the GERD group compared to the non-GERD group. BMI was correlated with IEP and IGP positively. IGP was positively correlated with esophagogastric (EGJ) pressure (EGJ-P) in participants with EGJ type 1 and 2, but not in participants with EGJ type 3. BMI was correlated with distal MNBI negatively. Logistic regression showed BMI as an independent risk factor for GERD. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and decision curve analysis (DCA) showed that BMI adjusted EGJ contractile integral (EGJ-CI) and BMI adjusted MNBI were superior to the corresponding original ones in predicting GERD susceptibility. According to the findings, BMI and IGP are the main factors contributing to the development of GERD. BMI affects IEP through the adaptive response of EGJ-P to IGP. Incorporating BMI into the calculations of EGJ-CI and MNBI can improve their ability in predicting GERD susceptibility.

Laryngeal Recalibration Therapy Improves Laryngopharyngeal Symptoms in Patients With Suspected Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease.

Laryngopharyngeal symptoms such as cough, throat clearing, voice change, paradoxic vocal fold movement, or laryngospasm are hyper-responsive behaviors resulting from local irritation (e.g., refluxate) and heightened sympathetic tone. Laryngeal recalibration therapy (LRT) guided by a speech-language pathologist (SLP) provides mechanical desensitization and cognitive recalibration to suppress hyper-responsive laryngeal patterns. The aim of this study was to assess symptom response to LRT among patients with chronic laryngopharyngeal symptoms undergoing evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Adults with chronic laryngopharyngeal symptoms referred for evaluation of GERD to a single center were prospectively followed. Inclusion criteria included ≥2 SLP-directed LRT sessions. Data from endoscopy, ambulatory reflux monitoring, and patient-reported outcomes were collected when available. The primary outcome was symptom response. Sixty-five participants completed LRT: mean age 55.4 years (SD 17.2), 46 (71%) female, mean body mass index 25.6 kg/m 2 (6.8), and mean of 3.7 (1.9) LRT sessions. Overall, 55 participants (85%) met criteria for symptom response. Specifically, symptom response was similar between those with isolated laryngopharyngeal symptoms (13/15, 87%) and concomitant laryngopharyngeal/esophageal symptoms (42/50, 84%). Among participants who underwent reflux monitoring, symptom response was similar between those with proven, inconclusive for, and no GERD (18/21 [86%], 8/9 [89%], 10/13 [77%]). Eighty-five percent of patients with chronic laryngopharyngeal symptoms referred for GERD evaluation who underwent LRT-experienced laryngeal symptom response. Rates of symptom response were maintained across patients with or without proven GERD and patients with or without concomitant esophageal reflux symptoms. SLP-directed LRT is an effective approach to incorporate into multidisciplinary management of chronic laryngopharyngeal symptoms/laryngopharyngeal reflux disease.

Novel Diagnostic Techniques in the Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).

In our present clinical paradigm, patient symptoms and presentation in the setting of traditional findings from endoscopy (erosive esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, reflux-mediated stenosis), esophageal high-resolution manometry, and/or ambulatory reflux monitoring (distal esophageal acid exposure time, numbers of reflux events, reflux-symptom association) guide the care of patients with suspected GERD. However, novel metrics and techniques acquired from or performed at endoscopy, manometry, or pH-impedance monitoring, beyond conventional evaluation, are of great interest to the gastroenterology community given the frequent (and sometimes challenging) presentation of suspected GERD. These novel and evolving diagnostic approaches have the potential to enhance the evaluation of these patients and optimize their management. In this invited review, we discuss the present evidence and potential clinical utility of selected GERD metrics and techniques of interest at endoscopy (dilated intercellular spaces, mucosal impedance), manometry (contractile integral, impedance analysis, straight leg raise, multiple rapid swallow maneuvers), and reflux monitoring (mean nocturnal baseline impedance, post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave indices), and how these tools may be most optimally adopted and utilized for clinical care (Fig.1).

Turnkey algorithmic approach for the evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease after bariatric surgery.

Bariatric surgeries are often complicated by de-novo gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or worsening of pre-existing GERD. The growing rates of obesity and bariatric surgeries worldwide are paralleled by an increase in the number of patients requiring post-surgical GERD evaluation. However, there is currently no standardized approach for the assessment of GERD in these patients. In this review, we delineate the relationship between GERD and the most common bariatric surgeries: sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), with a focus on pathophysiology, objective assessment, and underlying anatomical and motility disturbances. We suggest a stepwise algorithm to help diagnose GERD after SG and RYGB, determine the underlying cause, and guide the management and treatment.

Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Children on the Autism Spectrum: A Study Evaluating the Tolerance and Utility of the BRAVO Wireless pH Monitoring.

Children on the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may express pain or discomfort through stereotypic or self-injurious behaviors. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may be challenging to diagnose in a child who is non-verbal or has impaired communication skills, diagnostic testing for GERD may be the only way to establish the diagnosis. We report our experience using the BRAVO wireless pH monitoring device for the evaluation of GERD in this patient population. Tolerance and feasibility as well as pH parameters and symptom correlation of the BRAVO pH were evaluated retrospectively in ASD children and compared it to a large cohort of non-ASD children. Only patients with studies lasting >24 hours were included. A total of 172 patients were included, 27 of those were diagnosed with autism (median age 11 years, 17 male). We found no difference in age and weight between both groups but there was a male predominance in the autism group ( P = 0.007). We found no difference in the ability to complete at least 24 hours of study duration between both groups (24/27 or 89% in ASD vs 133/145 or 92% non-ASD patients, P = 0.632). We also found no difference in the median reflux index on the worst day ( P = 0.27) or the average of both days ( P = 0.75), BRAVO pH parameters and the proportion of abnormal studies between ASD and non-ASD children. When evaluating the overall symptom correlation with GER episodes, we did not find a difference between both groups, but we did find a higher symptom correlation for GER symptom during supine position in ASD children. Study was performed for behavioral indication in 11 ASD children, all had normal esophageal mucosa but 4 of those had an abnormal BRAVO pH study. No significant side effects were reported during the study, only 2 patients (1 non-ASD and 1 ASD) complained of self-limited chest pain. BRAVO wireless pH is well tolerated and feasible in evaluating GER and behavioral symptoms in ASD children and provides a reasonable alternative to standard trans-nasal pH monitoring.

Evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia as risk factors for lobectomy complications

ObjectiveUp to 40% of lobectomies are complicated by adverse events. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and hiatal hernia have been associated with morbidity across a range of clinical scenarios, yet their relation to recovery from pulmonary resection is understudied. We evaluated GERD and hiatal hernia as predictors of complications after lobectomy for lung cancer. MethodsLobectomy patients at Yale-New Haven Hospital between January 2014 and April 2021 were evaluated for predictors of 30-day postoperative complications, pneumonia, atrial arrhythmia, readmission, and mortality. Multivariable regression models included sociodemographic characteristics, body mass index, surgical approach, cardiopulmonary comorbidities, hiatal hernia, GERD, and preoperative acid-suppressive therapy as predictors. ResultsOverall, 824 patients underwent lobectomy, including 50.5% with a hiatal hernia and 38.7% with GERD. The median age was 68 [interquartile range, 61-74] years, and the majority were female (58.4%). At least 1 postoperative complication developed in 39.6% of patients, including atrial arrhythmia (11.7%) and pneumonia (4.1%). Male sex (odds ratio [OR], 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.11-2.06, P = .01), age ≥70 years (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.13-2.11, P = .01), hiatal hernia (OR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.03-1.90, P = .03), and intraoperative packed red blood cells (OR, 4.80; 95% CI, 1.51-15.20, P = .01) were significant risk factors for developing at least 1 postoperative complication. Hiatal hernia was also a significant predictor of atrial arrhythmia (OR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.02-2.62, P = .04) but was not associated with other adverse events. ConclusionsOur findings indicate that hiatal hernia may be a novel risk factor for complications, especially atrial arrhythmia, following lobectomy that should be considered in the preoperative evaluation of lung cancer patients.

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Diagnosis by New Consensus in Clinical Practice: The Additional Value of Mean Basal Impedance

Background: Recently, Lyon consensus and ROME IV were published as there was a need to create a more objective evaluation for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in order to better predict treatment outcomes. However, with classical pH-impedance measures, some patients would still have diagnostic uncertainty, and new metrics, such as mean nocturnal basal impedance (MNBI), have emerged to corroborate with GERD diagnosis. The aim of the present study was to describe the prevalence of GERD, functional heartburn (FH), reflux hypersensitivity (RH), and undetermined diagnosis using current consensuses and to evaluate if MNBI could be considered a supportive measure for the diagnosis of GERD. Methods: Patients who underwent pH-multichannel intraluminal impedance (MII-pH) for suspected GERD between 2013 and 2018 were included. Subjects with previous diagnosis of GERD (e.g., esophagitis grade C or D according to Los Angeles classification, Barrett’s esophagus, or peptic stricture), atypical symptoms, major esophageal motor disorder, eosinophilic esophagitis, or under proton pump inhibitor were excluded from the analysis. Results: We included 75 patients. The prevalence of GERD, FH, RH and undetermined diagnosis was 44%, 14.7%, 12%, and 29.3%, respectively. MNBI was lower in patients with GERD (GERD: 1,307.5 ± 817.9 Ω vs. FH: 3,039.6 ± 1,040.8 Ω, RH: 2,617.1 ± 1,342.2 Ω, undetermined: 2,351.9 ± 1,018.2, p < 0.001), although it was similar between patients with FH and RH (p = 0.44) or between undetermined diagnosis and FH/RH (p = 0.15). More patients with a GERD diagnosis had a MNBI under 2,292 Ω (GERD: 93.9% vs. non-GERD: 31.7%, p < 0.001). Conclusion: In our study, using MII-pH criteria, less than half of the patients had a GERD diagnosis. MNBI showed additional value as another metric for the diagnosis of GERD.

Advances in the diagnosis of GERD.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is considered one of the most frequent chronic gastrointestinal diseases globally with high costs due to treatment and investigations.First line therapy is with proton pump inhibitors, those who do not respond to initial treatment usually require further investigations such as upper gastrointestinal endoscopy or ambulatory 24-hours esophageal pH monitoring. The total time of exposure to acid and the DeMeester score represent the most useful parameters associated with conventional pH-metry, because they can identify gastroesophageal reflux disease.Although pH-metry is considered the gold standard for the evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease, new impedance-based parameters have been introduced in recent years with the role of increasing the accuracy of diagnosing gastroesophageal reflux disease and characterizing the type of reflux. The development of multichannel intraluminal pH-impedance has improved the ability to detect and quantify gastroesophageal reflux. New parameters such as post-reflux swallowing peristaltic wave (PSPW) index and the mean nocturnal basal impedance (MNBI) have recently been introduced to assess GERD phenotypes more accurately. This review evaluates current GERD diagnotic tools while also taking a brief look at newer diagnostic parameters like PSPW and MNBI.

Advanced Endoscopic Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Morbidly Obese Patients in a Rural Setting.

Obesity is a known risk factor for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Morbidly obese patients in rural areas are usually referred to the local surgeon for endoscopic evaluation. This situation poses significant challenges given the increased risk for perioperative complications due to anatomical and metabolic factors. This study aims to evaluate the safety of performing GERD diagnostic workup studies in a rural setting. Institutional review board approval was obtained for a retrospective chart review of patients who presented with GERD symptoms to a rural antireflux clinic between August 2015 and October 2020. Patients were included if their body mass index (BMI) was over 35 with comorbidities or over 40kg/m2 who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with or without concomitant placement of wireless pH probe and/or functional luminal imaging probe. A total of 117 patients met the inclusion criteria. There were 94 (80.3%) females and 23(19.7%) males. The average age was 56.0 ± 13.4years. The average BMI was 40.4 (35-66.4). Proton pump inhibitor use was noted in 97/117 (82.9%) with an average duration of 12.0 ± 9.2years. The average GERD-Health Related Quality of Life, Reflux Symptom Index and GERD Symptom Score (GERSS) were 29.8 ± 20, 24.5 ± 14.2 and 21.3 ± 15.4 respectively. There were no procedural complications. All the endoscopic examinations were successfully completed and patients were discharged. Performing diagnostic studies for GERD for morbidly obese patients in critical access hospitals is safe. Patient selection, proper training and adequate preparation are critical prerequisites for good outcomes.

Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease 1 Year after Esophageal Atresia Repair: Paradigms Lost from a Single Snapshot?

To analyze the findings of both multichannel intraluminal impedance with pH (MII-pH) and endoscopy/histopathology in children with esophageal atresia at age 1year, according to current recommendations for the evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in esophageal atresia. We retrospectively reviewed both MII-pH and endoscopy/histopathology performed in 1-year-old children with esophageal atresia who were followed up in accordance with international recommendations. Demographic data and clinical characteristics were also reviewed to investigate factors associated with abnormal GERD investigations. In our study cohort of 48 children with esophageal atresia, microscopic esophagitis was found in 33 (69%) and pathological esophageal acid exposure on MII-pH was detected in 12 (25%). Among baseline variables, only the presence of long-gap esophageal atresia was associated with abnormal MII-pH. Distal baseline impedance was significantly lower in patients with microscopic esophagitis, and it showed a very good diagnostic performance in predicting histological changes. Histological esophagitis is highly prevalent at 1year after esophageal atresia repair, but our results do not support a definitive causative role of acid-induced GERD. Instead, they support the hypothesis that chronic stasis in the dysmotile esophagus might lead to histological changes. MII-pH may be a helpful tool in selecting patients who need closer endoscopic surveillance and/or benefit from acid suppression.

Modern Esophageal Function Testing and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Morbidly Obese Patients

BackgroundThe implementation of high-resolution manometry (HRM) and the Lyon Consensus statement facilitate evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease and motility disorders in morbidly obese patients. Therefore, we aimed to investigate prevalence and phenotype of (borderline) GERD and esophageal motility disorders in this population.MethodsConsecutive morbidly obese (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2) patients were offered evaluation by means of HRM, ambulatory 24-h pH impedance monitoring, endoscopy, and a clinical examination at our tertiary academic center. Data were collected prospectively.ResultsOut of 448 eligible individuals, 147 patients (females = 75, 51%) with a median age of 41.6 (33.4; 52.3) years and a BMI of 44 (40.9; 49.4) kg/m2 were included during the study period. The Chicago Classification revealed motility disorders in 50 (34%) patients, dominated by outflow obstruction (18.4%, n = 27) and a novel disorder (7.5%, n = 11), nicknamed jackhammer esophagus (JE). According to the Lyon Consensus, 52 (35.4%) patients had evidence of true GERD, whereas borderline GERD was noted in another 60 (40.8%). Hypersensitive esophagus was observed in 6.8% (n = 10). Sensitivity and specificity of symptoms for GERD were 53.8% and 68.4%, respectively.ConclusionsThe current gold standard of assessment revealed that the prevalence of esophageal motility disorders and (borderline) GERD is high in the morbidly obese population. Further longitudinal data are needed to delineate the natural course of novel motility disorders like JE in obesity and to identify risk factors for adverse outcomes following bariatric surgery.

Higher clinical suspicion is needed for prompt diagnosis of esophageal adenocarcinoma in young patients

BackgroundEsophageal cancer is considered a disease of the elderly. Although the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma in young patients is increasing, current guidelines for endoscopic evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease and Barrett's esophagus include age as a cutoff. There is a paucity of data on the presentation and treatment of esophageal cancer in young patients. Most studies are limited by small sample sizes, and conflicting findings are reported regarding delayed diagnosis and survival compared with older patients. MethodsA retrospective cohort study was performed using the National Cancer Database between 2004 and 2015. Patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma were divided into quartiles by age (18-57, 58-65, 66-74, 75+ years) for comparison. Clinicopathologic and treatment factors were compared between groups. ResultsA total of 101,596 patients were identified with esophageal cancer. The youngest patient group (18-57 years) had the highest rate of metastatic disease (34%). No difference in tumor differentiation was observed between age groups. Younger patient groups were more likely to undergo treatment despite advanced stage at diagnosis. Overall 5-year survival was better for younger patients with local disease, but the difference was less pronounced in locoregional and metastatic cases. ConclusionsIn this study, young patients were more likely to have metastatic disease at diagnosis. Advanced stage in young patients may reflect the need for more aggressive clinical evaluation in high-risk young patients.

Evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease and related factors in seasonal agricultural workers

As gastroesophageal reflux disease affects various aspects of health and consumes considerable resources, it is important to know its prevalence in seasonal agricultural workers. This study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of gastroesophageal reflux disease and related factors in seasonal agricultural workers.The study is a cross-sectional study conducted on seasonal agricultural workers working in rural Eskiþehir. 536 of seasonal agricultural workers were formed the working group. The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease was evaluated with the National Institutes of Health Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Scale. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used in multivariate analysis.Of the study group, 62.5% were female and the age of the study group ranged from 18 to 92 years. The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease among seasonal agricultural workers were detected as 82.8%. Gender, age, monthly average income, and body mass index were all found as important risk factors for gastroesophageal reflux disease in our study.Also, it was detected a considerable amount of gastroesophageal reflux disease in seasonal agricultural workers.Family income status has to be improved and struggle against overweight to decrease the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease in seasonal agricultural workers.

Evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may present with a variety of symptoms, including heartburn, regurgitation, dysphagia, chronic cough, laryngitis, or even asthma. Therefore, the clinical presentation of GERD varies among individuals and conversely symptoms not always correspond to the presence of actual reflux. For that reason, the diagnosis poses certain challenges to the physician. To overcome these challenges, a thorough clinical examination followed by objective functional testing could improve diagnostic accuracy. In addition, a proper evaluation of patients with GERD can help in identifying those who will likely benefit the most from an antireflux procedure. The diagnostic work-up of these patients should include: symptomatic evaluation, upper endoscopy, barium swallow, high-resolution manometry, and ambulatory pH monitoring. Once a proper diagnosis of GERD is achieved, antireflux surgery is an excellent option for patients with partial control of symptoms with medication, for patients who do not want to be on long-term medical treatment (compliance/cost), or when complications of medical treatment occur.

The esophagiome: integrated anatomical, mechanical, and physiological analysis of the esophago-gastric segment.

Esophageal diseases are highly prevalent and carry significant socioeconomic burden. Despite the apparently simple function of the esophagus, we still struggle to better understand its physiology and pathophysiology. The assessment of large data sets and application of multiscale mathematical organ models have gained attention as part of the Physiome Project. This has long been recognized in cardiology but has only recently gained attention for the gastrointestinal(GI) tract. The term "esophagiome" implies a holistic assessment of esophageal function, from cellular and muscle physiology to the mechanical responses that transport and mix fluid contents. These anatomical, mechanical, and physiological models underlie the development of a "virtual esophagus" modeling framework to characterize and analyze function and disease. Functional models incorporate anatomical details with sensory-motor responses, especially related to biomechanical functions such as bolus transport. Our review builds on previous reviews and focuses on assessment of detailed anatomical and geometric data using advanced imaging technology for evaluation of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), and on esophageal mechanophysiology assessed using technologies that distend the esophagus. Integration of mechanics- and physiology-based analysis is a useful characteristic of the esophagiome. Experimental data on pressures and geometric characteristics are useful for the validation of mathematical and computer models of the esophagus that may provide predictions of novel endoscopic, surgical, and pharmaceutical treatment options.

Objective Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Patients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Some evidence shows that gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may be a trigger for paroxysmal AF (PAF). Most of the previous studies that correlated GERD and AF used questionnaires to diagnose GERD, not an objective evaluation. This study aims to evaluate in patients with PAF: (a) accuracy of symptoms to diagnose GERD; (b) prevalence of GERD; and (c) temporal correlation between cardiac arrhythmia and reflux. Twenty-two patients (59% females, mean age 68years) with PAF underwent esophageal manometry followed by ambulatory pH monitoring and concurrent Holter. Eight (36%) patients had GERD symptoms. Patients were grouped as GERD+ or GERD- based on the DeMeester score. Temporal correlation between arrhythmia and reflux was recorded. Six (27%) patients were GERD+. Symptoms had sensitivity and specificity of 50 and 70%, respectively, for the diagnosis of GERD. Episodic AF occurred in one patient only (GERD-). There were 23 episodes of AF during the test with 14% correlation with reflux. Persistent AF during the period of the test was found in five patients (60% GERD+). Our results show: (a) Symptoms have a low accuracy for the diagnosis of GERD; (b) the prevalence of GERD in patients with PAF is low; and

Nationwide Multicenter Study for Overlaps of Common Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders in Korean Patients With Constipation.

Background/AimsIn spite of increased concerns about the overlaps among the various functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs), studies for the overlap between constipation and other common FGIDs are rare. Therefore, we investigated the patterns of overlaps between constipation and other common FGIDs.MethodsThis study was designed as a prospective nationwide multi-center questionnaire study using Rome III questionnaires for functional dyspepsia (FD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and functional constipation (FC), as well as various questionnaires about patients’ information, degree of symptoms, and quality of life. For the evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), GERD-Q was used.ResultsFrom 19 centers, 759 patients with constipation were enrolled. The proportions of FC and IBS subtypes of constipation (IBS-C) were 59.4% and 40.6%, respectively. Among them, 492 (64.8%) showed no overlap. One hundred and thirty-six patients (17.9%) presented overlapping GERD, and 80 patients (10.5%) presented overlapping FD. Fifty one (6.7%) of patients were overlapped by both GERD and FD. Coincidental herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP) (P = 0.026) or pulmonary diseases (P = 0.034), reduced fiber intake (P = 0.013), and laxative use (P < 0.001) independently affected the rate of overlaps. These overlapping conditions negatively affected the constipation-associated quality of life, general quality of life, and degree of constipation.ConclusionsThe overlap of GERD or FD was common in patients with constipation. Coincidental HNP or pulmonary diseases, reduced fiber intake, and laxatives use were found to be independent associated factors for overlapping common FGIDs in Korean patients with constipation.
