Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is associated with sleep disturbances. However, mechanisms underlying these interactions remain unclear. Male acute and chronic sleep deprivation (SD) mice were used for this study. Mice in the chronic SD group exhibited anxiety- and depression-like behaviors. We further performed high-throughput genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to screen for featured differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the esophageal tissue. The acute SD group, comprised 25 DEGs including 14 downregulated and 11 upregulated genes. Compared with the acute SD group, more DEGs were present in the chronic SD group, with a total of 169 DEGs, including 88 downregulated and 81 upregulated genes. Some DEGs that were closely related to GERD and associated esophageal diseases were significantly different in the chronic SD group. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction verified the downregulation of Krt4, Krt13, Krt15 and Calml3 and upregulation of Baxl1 and Per3. Notably, these DEGs are involved in biological processes, which might be the pathways of the neuroregulatory mechanisms of DEGs expression.

The Effect of Dexlansoprazole on Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1247. [PMID: 38279248 PMCID: PMC10816097 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25021247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of dexlansoprazole (a proton pump inhibitor-PPI) in resolving heartburn, reflux, and other symptoms and complications resulting from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The study followed PRISMA 2020 and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020206513). The search strategy used MeSH and free terms appropriately adapted for each database. Only randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were included. The Cochrane tool (RoB 2.0) was used to assess the risk of bias, and the certainty of evidence was rated using GRADE. Ten RCTs were included. Dexlansoprazole outperformed the placebo and other PPIs in the resolution of heartburn and reflux symptoms in patients with GERD, with benefits during and after treatment, especially in those with moderate and severe symptoms. The meta-analyses indicated that dexlansoprazole at doses of 30 and 60 mg had more 24 h heartburn-free days and nights compared to the placebo medications; no difference was reported between dexlansoprazole at doses of 30 and 60 mg in heartburn-free nights. A low bias risk and a moderate certainty of evidence were observed. This review confirms the therapeutic effect of dexlansoprazole (placebo-controlled) and its improvements in GERD symptoms compared to another PPI. However, the interpretation of the results should be carried out cautiously due to the small number of included studies and other reported limitations.

Polypharmacy and pattern of medication use among patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease: results from Pars Cohort study. BMC Gastroenterol 2023; 23:439. [PMID: 38097949 PMCID: PMC10720105 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-023-03086-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a common chronic condition. Its chronic nature may affect the pattern of medication use. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, associated factors, and patterns of polypharmacy and medication use among GERD patients in southwestern Iran. METHODS We used data from the Pars Cohort Study. We classified drugs using the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification system. The Lexicomp® database was used to assess potential drug-drug interactions. Multivariable Poisson regression was applied. Adjusted prevalence ratio (PR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated. RESULTS A total of 9262 participants were included. Among 2,325 patients with GERD, age-standardized prevalence of polypharmacy was 9.5% (95% CI: 7.5%, 11.6%) in males, and 19.3% (95% CI: 17.2%, 21.4%) in females. The PR of experiencing Polypharmacy by GERD patients compared to non-GERD patients was 1.82 (95% CI: 1.61, 2.05%). Multimorbidity (PR: 3.33; CI: 2.66, 4.15), gender (PR: 1.68; CI: 1.30, 2.18), and metabolic syndrome (PR: 1.77; CI: 1.45, 2.15) were associated with polypharmacy among GERD patients. Drugs for acid-related disorders were the most common used drugs among men, women and elders. We found that 13.9%, 4.2%, and 1.1% of GERD patients had type C, D and X drug interactions, respectively. CONCLUSION GERD is correlated with a higher prevalence of polypharmacy. Among GERD patients, females, those with multi-morbidities, and those with metabolic syndrome may be affected more by polypharmacy. Considering the fairly high rate of interactions identified, a review of the medication list is essential when approaching GERD patients, and physicians must check for medications that may worsen GERD.

Identification of 14 novel susceptibility loci for diaphragmatic hernia development and their biological and clinical implications: results from the UK Biobank. Surg Endosc 2022; 36:7647-7651. [PMID: 36076102 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09064-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Genetic contributions to hernia development are incompletely understood. This study performed the first comprehensive genome-wide association study (GWAS) for diaphragmatic hernia using a large population-based cohort in the UK Biobank (UKB). METHODS AND PROCEDURES Two-stage GWAS (discovery and confirmation) was performed for diaphragmatic hernia in the UKB. Briefly, 275,549 and 91,850 subjects were randomly selected for association tests in Stages 1 and 2, respectively. Association tests between 8,568,156 SNPs (genotyped or imputed with MAF > 0.01) in the autosomal genome and diaphragmatic hernia were performed in Stage 1. SNPs with P < 1 × 10-5 were selected for confirmation in Stage 2, and those with P < 0.05 and the same direction of association as Stage 1 were selected for combined association testing; SNPs with combined P < 5 × 10-8 were considered GWAS-significant. LD clumping analysis identified genetically independent chromosomal regions (loci). A genetic risk score (GRS) measured the cumulative risk of independent SNPs in 91,849 additional subjects using odds ratios (ORs) from Stages 1 and 2. RESULTS 36,351 patients were identified with diaphragmatic hernia (ICD-10 K44). In Stage 1 analysis, 2654 SNPs were associated (P < 1 × 10-5) with diaphragmatic hernia. Stage 2 analysis confirmed 338 SNPs (P < 0.05). In combined analysis, 245 SNPs reached GWAS significance (P < 5 × 10-8). LD clumping analysis revealed 14 independent loci associated with diaphragmatic hernia. Two loci have been previously associated with inguinal hernia at 2p16 (rs181661155) and 11p13 (rs5030123). eQTL analysis suggested genes CRLF1, UBA52, and CALD1 are also significantly associated with these loci. GRS showed significant increase in cases compared to controls (P < 1 × 10-16) and is associated with increased risk of diaphragmatic hernia (P < 1 × 10-7). CONCLUSIONS We identified 245 SNPs at 14 susceptibility loci associated with diaphragmatic hernia in a large population-based cohort. These results offer insight into pathogenetic mechanisms of diaphragmatic hernia development and may be used in genetic risk scores for pre-operative risk-stratification and clinical prediction models.

Morozov S, Sentsova T. Local inflammatory response to gastroesophageal reflux: Association of gene expression of inflammatory cytokines with esophageal multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH data. World J Clin Cases 2022; 10:9254-9263. [PMID: 36159432 PMCID: PMC9477692 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i26.9254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gene expression of inflammatory cytokines may take part in the pathophysiology of different forms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). AIM To explore gene expression of inflammatory cytokines in esophageal mucosa in patients with erosive esophagitis (EE) and non-erosive forms of GERD (NERD) and its association with data of esophageal multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) measurements. METHODS This was a single-center prospective study. Esophageal mucosa samples were taken from the lower part of the esophagus during endoscopy. Expression of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, IL-18, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFA), toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3), differentiation cluster 68 (CD68) and β-2 microglobulin genes in esophageal mucosa was assessed with ImmunoQuantex assays. MII-pH measurements were performed on all the participants. Diagnosis of GERD was confirmed by the results of the MII-pH data. Based on the endoscopy, patients were allocated to the groups of EE and NERD. The control group consisted of non-symptomatic subjects with normal endoscopy and MII-pH results. We used nonparametric statistics to compare the differences between the groups. Association of expression of the mentioned genes with the results of the MII-pH data was assessed with Spearman's rank method. RESULTS Data from 60 patients with GERD and 10 subjects of the control group were available for the analysis. Higher expression of IL-18 (5.89 ± 0.4 vs 5.28 ± 1.1, P = 0.04) and GATA3 (2.92 ± 0.86 vs 2.23 ± 0.96, P = 0.03) was found in the EE group compared to NERD. Expression of IL-1β, IL-18, TNFA, and TLR4 was lower (P < 0.05) in the control group compared to EE and NERD. Esophageal acid exposure correlated with the expression of IL-1β (Spearman's rank r = 0.29), IL-18 (r = 0.31), TNFA (r = 0.35), GATA3 (r = 0.34), TLR4 (r = 0.29), and CD68 (r = 0.37). Mean esophageal рН correlated inversely with the expression of IL-18, TNFA, GATA3, TLR4, and CD68. No association of gene expression with the number of gastroesophageal refluxes was found. CONCLUSION In patients with EE, local expression of IL-18 and GATA3 was higher compared to subjects with NERD. Esophageal acid exposure correlated directly with expression of IL-1β, IL-18, TNFA, TLR4, CD68, and β-2 microglobulin genes. Inverse correlation was revealed between expression of IL-18, TNFA, GATA3, TLR4, and CD68 and mean esophageal pH.

Abstract
Introduction Patients with small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) have a very poor prognosis. However, a subset of SCLC achieves long‐term survival. The objective of this study was to investigate factors and pattern of long‐term survival in patients with limited‐stage small cell lung cancer (LS‐SCLC) who achieved a complete response (CR) after chemoradiotherapy. Patient and Methods This was a single‐center retrospective study. The analysis of hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) was performed using Cox proportional hazards model. For pattern analysis, the date of recurrence was used as the endpoint. The nominal categorical variables were analyzed by the χ2 test. Survival was estimated using the Kaplan–Meier model, and the results were reported as the median and interquartile range. Results We identified 162 patients, median age was 64.7 (56.2–70.2) years, and 94 (58%) were females. Eighty‐one patients (50%) had recurrence during follow‐up. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (HR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.45–0.93; p = 0.016) and neurological paraneoplastic syndrome (PNS) (HR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.29–0.72; p < 0.001) were independent factors associated with improved overall survival (OS). Patients with GERD had prolonged recurrence free survival (RFS) compared to patients without GERD (median, 29.1 months vs. 13.9 months, p < 0.001), whereas patients with neurological PNS had a reduced recurrence rate compared to those patients without neurological PNS (No. [%], 8 [20.5] vs. 73 [59.3], p < 0.001). Conclusions Patients with LS‐SCLC achieving a CR after chemoradiotherapy, GERD, and neurological PNS were associated with improved OS. GERD and neurological PNS were associated with longer RFS and lower recurrence rate, respectively.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common clinical disease associated with upper gastrointestinal motility disorders. Recently, with improvements in living standards and changes in lifestyle and dietary habits, the incidence of GERD has been increasing yearly. However, the mechanism of GERD has not been fully elucidated due to its complex pathogenesis, and this had led to unsatisfactory therapeutic outcomes. Currently, the occurrence and development of GERD involve multiple factors. Its pathogenesis is mainly thought to be related to factors, such as lower esophageal sphincter pressure, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation, crural diaphragmatic dysfunction, hiatus hernia, and impaired esophageal clearance. Therefore, explaining the pathogenesis of GERD more clearly and systematically, exploring potential and effective therapeutic targets, and choosing the best treatment methods have gradually become the focus of scholars' attention. Herein, we reviewed current advancements in the dynamic mechanism of GERD to better counsel patients on possible treatment options.

BACKGROUND The clinical endoscopic phenotypes of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are classified as Barrett's esophagus (BE), erosive esophagitis (EE) and non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (NERD). NERD is subclassified as abnormal acid exposure (AAE) and normal acid exposure (NAE) based on pH monitoring study results. The aim of this study was to characterize genes involved in the pathophysiology and immune response of GERD. METHODS This is an observational and cross-sectional study. All patients with BE, EE, AAE, and NAE and a control group were subjected to superior endoscopy (with biopsies of esophageal mucosa). Relative mRNA quantification of cytokine and target genes was conducted by quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR). Changes in the expression of genes associated with inflammation were assessed for each disease phenotype. Statistical analysis of differential gene expression was performed using the Mann-Whitney U non-parametric test. A p value < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS A total of 82 patients were included and were divided into the following groups: Group BE, 16 (19.51%); Group EE, 23 (28.04%); Group AAE, 13 (15.86%); NAE 13 (15.86%); and Control Group, 17 (20.73%). Compared with the control group, patients with BE exhibited increased IL-8 expression (p < 0.05) and increased levels of IL-10, MMP-3, and MMP-9. Patients with EE exhibited increased levels of IL-1B, IL-6 and IL-10 (p < 0.05), and patients with AAE exhibited increased expression of IL-1B, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α (p < 0.05). AAE exhibited increased IL-1B and TNF-α expression compared with NAE (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates the differential expression of mediators of inflammation in the esophageal mucosa of patients with different GERD endoscopic phenotypes. IL-1B and TNF-α could be useful to differentially diagnose AAE and NAE in the non-erosive phenotype using endoscopic biopsies.

Abstract
Previous animal models of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were not physiological and required a variety of surgical procedures. Therefore, the animal model developed by conditions that are similar to the pathogenesis of GERD is necessary. The aim is to establish a non-surgical animal model with GERD caused by overeating induced in mice. To induce mice to overeat, we designed dietary control protocols including repetitive fasting and feeding. The esophageal tissues were evaluated with GERD markers to prove the establishment of a GERD animal model. Mice fasted every other day (group 2) showed more pronounced overeating feature and demonstrated evident changes similar to the macroscopic and microscopic findings of GERD, the expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase and substance P were stronger. The higher frequency of fasting and overeating could cause GERD effectively. The dietary control can make mice overeat, which elicits the change of lower esophageal mucosa similar to GERD. Thus, the overeating-induced mouse may be used as a GERD mouse model.

Abstract
Genetic factors are recognized to contribute to peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and other gastrointestinal diseases, such as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here, genome-wide association study (GWAS) analyses based on 456,327 UK Biobank (UKB) individuals identify 8 independent and significant loci for PUD at, or near, genes MUC1, MUC6, FUT2, PSCA, ABO, CDX2, GAST and CCKBR. There are previously established roles in susceptibility to Helicobacter pylori infection, response to counteract infection-related damage, gastric acid secretion or gastrointestinal motility for these genes. Only two associations have been previously reported for duodenal ulcer, here replicated trans-ancestrally. The results highlight the role of host genetic susceptibility to infection. Post-GWAS analyses for PUD, GORD, IBS and IBD add insights into relationships between these gastrointestinal diseases and their relationships with depression, a commonly comorbid disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND De novo gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the complications that may occur after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This study was conducted to examine whether omentopexy can be effective in reducing the incidence of GERD after LSG. METHODS A total of 201 patients (145 females) were compared in this retrospective cohort study, including Group A (n = 100) and Group B (n = 101), consisting of patients undergoing LSG with omentopexy and LSG without omentopexy, respectively. One year after surgery, the patients were evaluated by GERD-Q; those obtaining a score of eight or above also underwent upper endoscopy to confirm their de novo GERD. RESULTS Thirty-seven patients had a GERD-Q score ≥ 8 and therefore underwent upper endoscopy. Seventeen patients had fully normal endoscopy results, and no significant differences was observed between the two groups in terms of the incidence of de novo GERD (P = 0.966). There were also no significant differences between the groups in terms of age (P = 0.517), sex (P = 0.193), diabetes (P = 0.979), and GERD-Q score (P = 0.880). The pre-operative mean weight (P = 0.003) and total weight loss (TWL) showed significant intergroup differences (P = 0.001). The mean body mass index (BMI) showed significant differences between the groups before the operation (P = 0.001) and 1 year after the surgery (P = 0.009). Excess BMI loss (EBMIL) was also significantly higher in Group A 1 year after the surgery (P = 0.004). Even after omitting confounder effect of BMI between two groups with and without omentopexy, GerdQ was not significantly different. CONCLUSION Omentopexy does not have a significant effect on reducing the incidence of de novo GERD after LSG, even in individuals with higher BMI and weight.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic, progressive condition, and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. The risk factors for GERD are complex and the pathogenesis of GERD has not been fully elucidated. As acid-suppressive drugs, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used to treat GERD; after being metabolized by CYP2C19 in the human liver, the blood concentration of PPIs gradually decreases. Previous studies have shown that CYP2C19 gene polymorphism leads to considerable individual differences of PPIs in terms of metabolic rate and efficacy.
AIM To identify potential variations in CYP2C19 promoter from patients (normal metabolizers, NMs, *1/*1) with GERD, verify the activity of promoter with variations in HEK 293T, and analyze the correlation between variations in CYP2C19 promoter and PPI treatment effect for GERD in the Chinese population.
METHODS A total of 163 patients with sporadic GERD were collected. After diagnostic treatment with PPIs, the symptom score decreased by 50%, but the symptoms did not completely disappear in the study group (n = 82). In the control group (n = 81), the symptoms completely disappeared after treatment. The CYP2C19 genotype of all patients was detected as *1/*1. The PCR and Sanger sequencing were used to identify variations in the CYP2C19 promoter. The luciferase activities of pGL3 basic-CYP2C19 promoters with or without variation were detected by dual-luciferase assay.
RESULTS Three novel heterozygous variations were identified in the CYP2C19 gene promoters isolated from three NM patients with GERD: g.94761364 T>A, g.94762112 T>A, and g.94762514 G>T. Compared to the wild type, the transcriptional activity of the CYP2C19 promoter with g.94761364 T>A was significantly increased (P = 0.034).
CONCLUSION The transcriptional activity of the CYP2C19 promoter is significantly increased in the presence of g.94761364 T>A, which may further affect the metabolism and blood concentration of PPIs. This finding provides a new insight for the medication and treatment of GERD patients in the Chinese population.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is characterized by high morbidity and a significant decrease in the quality of life of patients, and is a major risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Nowadays, antisecretory therapy with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) is the "gold standard" of conservative treatment of GERD, but in some cases this therapy is unsuccessful. According to various studies, the prevalence of refractory GERD can reach 30-40%. The latest scientific data in the field of genetics and pathophysiology of GERD demonstrate that a disruption of the barrier function of the esophageal mucosa and an increase of its permeability can be the leading causes of refractoriness. Thus, the optimal therapy for patients with GERD should not only suppress the secretion of hydrochloric acid, but also restore the barrier function of the mucous membrane, providing an esophagoprotective effect. To achieve these goals, Alfasoxx was developed, which consists of a mixture of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid and low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate dissolved in a bioadhesive carrier (poloxamer 407). The clinical efficacy of this product has been confirmed by three prospective, randomized, placebo - controlled trials. Alfasoxx has a healing and restorative effect towards the esophageal epithelium and due to high ability for bioadhesion provides long - term protection of the mucous membrane of the esophagus. Combination therapy for GERD with the use of PPI and an esophagoprotector offers new perspectives for the treatment of patients with GERD.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disease worldwide, and its prevalence is increasing in both developed and developing countries. GERD is divided into three subtypes, namely, erosive esophagitis, nonerosive reflux disease (NERD), and Barrett's esophagus. The etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and response to treatment of GERD invariably show high heterogeneity or significant individual difference, especially NERD and refractory GERD. On the other hand, advanced technology has currently provided a wide range of methods for the diagnosis and treatment of GERD patients; however, the long-term efficacy and quality of life of some patients are unsatisfactory. Therefore, each GERD patient needs a specialized management strategy aiming at his/her own condition, which is known as individualized medicine or personalized medicine. The goal of GERD treatment is to relieve the symptoms, while symptomatic remission is directly related to the quality of life. In other words, health-related quality of life and patient satisfaction may be reasonable criteria for GERD. In this paper, we will discuss the individualized medicine of GERD.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common gastrointestinal disorder with an increasing prevalence. GERD develops when the reflux of stomach contents causes troublesome typical and atypical symptoms and/or complications. Several risk factors of GERD have been identified and evaluated over the years, including a considerable amount of genetic factors. Multiple mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis of GERD including: (1) motor abnormalities, such as impaired lower esophageal sphincter (LES) resting tone, transient LES relaxations, impaired esophageal acid clearance and delayed gastric emptying; and (2) anatomical factors, such as hiatal hernia and obesity. Genetic contribution seems to play a major role in GERD and GERD- related disorders development such Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Twin and family studies have revealed an about 31% heritability of the disease. Numerous single-nucleotide polymorphisms in various genes like FOXF1, MHC, CCND1, anti-inflammatory cytokine and DNA repair genes have been strongly associated with increased GERD risk. GERD, Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma share several genetic loci. Despite GERD polygenic basis, specific genetic loci such as rs10419226 on chromosome 19, rs2687201 on chromosome 3, rs10852151 on chromosome 15 and rs520525 on the paired related homeobox 1 gene have been mentioned as potential risk factors. Further investigation on the risk genes may elucidate their exact function and role and demonstrate new therapeutic approaches to this increasingly common disease.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common gastrointestinal diagnosis, a leading reason for endoscopy and cause of potentially serious complications, resulting in significant individual and system-wide health burden. Approximately one quarter of people living in western countries have experienced GERD, and the prevalence appears to be on the rise. Risk factors for GERD include hiatus hernia, obesity, high-fat diet, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, pregnancy, genetics, and some medications. The cardinal symptoms of GERD are troublesome heartburn and regurgitation. GERD is identified by taking a patient-centered history and if necessary can be classified by endoscopic investigation. The role of the pharmacist in the management of GERD is to confirm the diagnosis by history taking, confirm there are no alarming signs or symptoms that require referral to a doctor, and recommendation of short-term therapy to control symptoms. Effective pharmacological treatments for GERD include antacids, alginate, histamine H2 receptor antagonists, and proton pump inhibitors. This narrative review includes a comparison of the efficacy and safety of these treatments and pertinent information to help pharmacists advise patients with GERD on their appropriate use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms in G-protein beta-3 subunit (GNβ3) and beta-2 adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) are associated with pain and gut hypersensitivity, which can overlap with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). AIM To evaluate relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within GNβ3 and ADRB2 systems, and reflux symptom burden, GERD phenotypes from ambulatory reflux monitoring, and quality of life. METHODS Symptomatic adults undergoing ambulatory reflux testing were recruited and phenotyped based on acid burden and symptom reflux association; major oesophageal motor disorders and prior foregut surgery were exclusions. A comparison asymptomatic control cohort was also identified. Subjects and controls completed questionnaires assessing symptom burden on visual analog scales, short-form health survey-36 (SF-36), and Beck Anxiety and Depression Inventories (BAI and BDI). Genotyping was performed from saliva samples; 6 SNPs selected from each of the two genes of interest were compared. RESULTS Saliva from 151 study subjects (55.3 ± 1.2 years, 63.6% F) and 60 control subjects (50.9 ± 2.2 years, 66.7%) had sufficient genetic material for genotyping. Study subjects had higher symptom burden, worse total and physical health, and higher anxiety scores compared to controls (P ≤ .002). Tested SNPs within ADRB2 were similar between study subjects and controls (P > .09). Study subjects with recessive alleles in 3 GNβ3 SNPs (Rs2301339, Rs5443, and Rs5446) had worse symptom severity (P = .011), worse mental health (P = .03), and higher depression scores (P = .005) despite no associations with GERD phenotypes or reflux metrics. CONCLUSIONS Genetic variation within GNβ3 predicts oesophageal symptom burden and affect, but not oesophageal acid burden or symptom association with reflux episodes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Medical therapy of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is based on the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) as first choice treatment. Despite their effectiveness, about 20-30% of patients report an inadequate response and alternative drugs are required. Areas covered: This review provides an overview of current pharmacotherapy for treating GERD by showing the results of PPIs, reflux inhibitors, antidepressants and mucosa protective medications. Expert opinion: Medical therapy of GERD does not definitely cure the disease, because even PPIs are not able to change the key factors responsible for it. However, they remain the mainstay of medical treatment, allowing us to alleviate symptoms, heal esophagitis and prevent complications in the majority of cases. Nevertheless, many patients do not respond, because acid does not play any pathogenetic role. Prokinetics and reflux inhibitors have the potential to control motor abnormalities, but the results of clinical trials are inconsistent. Antidepressant drugs are effective in specific subgroups of NERD patients with visceral hypersensitivity, but larger, controlled clinical studies are necessary. Protective drugs or medical devices have been recently adopted to reinforce mucosal resistance and preliminary trials have confirmed their efficacy either combined with or as add-on medication to PPIs in refractory patients.
