External UES Band (Shaker Pressure Band) and GERD
This protocol is a study to assess the efficacy of an external upper esophageal band to decrease subjective nighttime symptoms related to esophageal reflux into the pharynx.
Mechanisms Preventing Pharyngeal Reflux
The overall goal is to define and characterize the manometric characteristics of UES incompetence associated with objectively documented pharyngeal reflux. The investigators will use endoscopic reflux detection as gold standard.
Prospective Evaluation of PH-impedance Tracings According to the Wingate Consensus, and Influence on GERD Classification According to the Lyon Consensus
Commonly, in clinical practice an automated analysis of pH-MII tracings is obtained.
Normal Values of Ambulatory 24-hour Oesophageal pH-impedance Monitoring in an Indian Cohort of Participants
This study aims to determine normal 24-hour pH-impedance monitoring values, including acid exposure time (AET), in healthy Indian adults. It will help improve GERD diagnosis in India by providing population-specific data. The study will also explore how diet, body position, and nighttime reflux affect acid exposure. Healthy volunteers aged 18 …
Vonaprazan Versus Esomeprazole for Healing of LA Grade B or Higher Esophagitis After POEM
Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) is a well-established treatment for achalasia; however, it is frequently associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), with many patients developing LA grade B or higher esophagitis. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like Esomeprazole are the standard treatment, but Vonaprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), offers superior acid …
Role of Mucosal Impedance Measurement for the Diagnosis of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Existing current tests for diagnosing GERD are suboptimal because they lack adequate sensitivity or specificity. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is highly specific for diagnosing GERD, particularly when erosive esophagitis is present (Los Angeles Classification B, C, or D). Nevertheless, its sensitivity is limited, as this scenario is only present in 30% …
Clinical Trial for the Comparative Evaluation of Acid Suppression and Symptom Management of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease With the Administration of Tegoprazan or Pantoprazole
The objective of this clinical trial is to compare which of the two drugs best resolves symptoms in patients diagnosed with erosive and non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease, adult males and females. The main question is What is the proportion of patients with resolution of the main symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux …
Performance and Safety of Afluxin® in Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a chronic condition in which stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and inflammation. GERD is categorized into Nonerosive Reflux Disease (NERD), Erosive Esophagitis (EE), and Barrett's esophagus (BE). Common symptoms include heartburn and acid regurgitation. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, obesity, and …
An Exploratory Physiological Study of Post-operative Recovery in Surgical Neonates and Dimethylarginine:Arginine Levels
The SuNDiAL study will measure levels of two naturally occurring amino acids: Arginine and Asymmetric Dimethylarginine (ADMA) in neonates undergoing abdominal surgery in the first 5 days of life due to congenital abdominal malformations as the participants recover from surgery. The investigators hypothesise that the relationship between Arginine and ADMA …
Truncal Vagotomy in Patients Undergoing Revisional Sleeve Gastrectomy to Gastric Bypass
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of performing a truncal vagotomy along with a sleeve to bypass revision surgery in reducing the severity and/or incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) post-surgery.
