Abstract

Objective

This study aims to investigate the detection rates, common symptoms and risk factors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) at the digestive endoscopy center.

Methods

A multicenter cross-sectional survey conducted at three hospitals and a total of 565 eligible participants were enrolled. All the patients completed routine ENT examination, gastroscopy, gastroesophageal reflux questionnaire (GerdQ), reflux symptom index (RSI) and a self-designed 25-item symptoms table survey.

Results

Among the 565 eligible participants, the detection rates of GERD and LPRD were 18.41% (104/565) and 9.91% (56/565), respectively. The detection rate of GERD combined with LPRD was 3.19% (18/565). Among GERD and LPRD patients, males (vs. females), middle-aged and elderly patients (vs. young people), BMI ≥ 24.0 kg/m2 (vs. BMI < 24.0 kg/m2), with current smoking history (vs. no smoking), and current drinking history (vs. no drinking), lying down immediately after meal (vs. no lying down immediately after meal) were significantly higher (all p < 0.05). The most common extraesophageal symptoms in patients with GERD were dry mouth (66.35%), globus sensation (56.73%), dry throat and pharyngeal itching (55.77%). The most common extraesophageal symptoms in patients with LPRD were globus sensation (91.07%), dry throat and pharyngeal itching (83.93%), and dry mouth (82.14%).

Conclusion

GERD and LPRD had a high detection rate at the digestive endoscopy center in Guangzhou, China. Older age, BMI ≥ 24.0 kg/m2, smoking and drinking history were risk factors for both GERD and LPRD. Neither GerdQ nor RSI scores included common extraesophageal symptoms.
