胃食管反流病(GERD)是由食管下括约肌功能不全等多因素造成的后果,食管黏膜暴露与胃酸反流被认为是造成反流性食管炎的病因。糜烂性食管炎及其他 GERD 并发症更多见于老年患者。对于反流症状是否随患者年龄增长而增多仍存争议。本研究旨在探讨 GERD 患者年龄、反流症状和食管糜烂程度间的关系。
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a consequence of multiple factors such as hypopharyngeal sphincter insufficiency. Esophageal mucosal exposure and gastric acid reflux are thought to be responsible for reflux esophagitis. Erosive esophagitis and other complications of GERD more common in elderly patients. It remains controversial whether reflux symptoms increase with age. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between age, reflux symptoms and esophageal erosion in GERD patients.
