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.
