ABSTRACT
Diagnosing GERD is difficult, because reflux is a physiological phenomenon, there are various methods and variables and each of them has limitations such as day-to-day variability. The Lyon 2.0 consensus suggests that the ways to establish a conclusive diagnosis of GERD are the presence of an ASD greater than 6.0% or endoscopic esophagitis grades B-C-D of Los Angeles. The absence of significant esophagitis and a TEA of less than 4.0% allow GERD to be ruled out. ASDs between 4.0 and 6.0% are in an intermediate range, which does not allow GERD to be ruled out or diagnosed. In these contexts, the use of the total number of reflux events in a ph-impedanciometry study, the basal nocturnal mucosal impedance or the presence of a hiatal hernia can modify this intermediate probability and would allow therapeutic decisions to be made. Finally, Lyon 2.0 su - ggests that monitoring of more than 72 hours is recommended over monitoring of shorter duration, due to its greater sensitivity.
El diagnóstico de la ERGE es difícil, debido a que el reflujo es un fenómeno fisiológico, existen diversos métodos y variables y cada uno de ellos tiene limitantes como la variabilidad día a día. El consenso de Lyon 2.0 sugiere que las formas de establecer un diagnóstico concluyente de ERGE son la presencia de un TEA mayor de 6,0% o esofagitis endoscópica grados B-C-D de Los Angeles. La ausencia de esofagitis significativa y un TEA menor de 4,0% permiten descartar la ERGE. TEAs entre 4,0 y 6,0% están en un rango intermedio, que no permite des- cartar ni diagnosticar ERGE. En estos contextos, el uso del número total de eventos de reflujo en un estudio de ph-impedanciometria, la impedancia basal mucosa nocturna o la presencia de hernia hiatal pueden modificar esta probabilidad intermedia y permitirían tomar decisiones terapéuticas. Finalmente, Lyon 2.0 sugiere que monito- rizaciones de más de 72 h son recomendables por sobre monitorizaciones de menor duración, debido a su mayor sensibilidad.

Objective: To investigate the functional outcomes and postoperative complications of Cheng's GIRAFFE reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy. Methods: A descriptive case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 100 patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction who underwent Cheng's GIRAFFE reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy in Cancer Hospital of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (64 cases), Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine (24 cases), Lishui Central Hospital (10 cases), Huzhou Central Hospital (1 case) and Ningbo Lihuili Hospital (1 case) from September 2017 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Of 100 patients, 64 were males and 36 were females; the mean age was (61.3 ± 11.1) years and the BMI was (22.7±11.1) kg/m(2). For TNM stage, 68 patients were stage IA, 24 were stage IIA and 8 were stage IIB. Postoperative functional results and postoperative complications of radical gastrectomy with Giraffe reconstruction were analyzed and summarized. Gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ) score and postoperative endoscopy were used to evaluate the occurrence of reflux esophagitis and its grade (grade N, grade A, grade B, grade C, and grade D from mild to severe reflux). The continuous data conforming to normal distribution were expressed as (mean ± standard deviation), and those with skewed distribution were presented as median (Q1, Q3). Results: All the 100 patients successfully completed R0 resection, including 77 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery and 23 patients undergoing laparotomy. The Giraffe anastomosis time was (38.6±14.0) min; the blood loss was (73.0±18.4) ml; the postoperative hospital stay was 9.5 (8.2, 13.0) d; the hospitalization cost was (6.0±0.3) ten thousand yuan. Fourteen cases developed perioperative complications (14.0%), including 7 cases of pleural effusion or pneumonia, 3 cases of anastomotic leakage, 2 cases of gastric emptying disorder, 1 case of gastrointestinal hemorrhage and 1 case of anastomotic stenosis, who were all improved and discharged after symptomatic management. Patients were followed up for (33.3±1.6) months. Eight patients were found to have reflux symptoms by RDQ scale six months after surgery, and 11 patients (11/100,11.0%) were found to have reflux esophagitis by gastroscopy, including 6 in grade A, 3 in grade B, and 2 in grade C. All the patients could control their reflux symptoms with behavioral guidance or oral PPIs. Conclusion: Cheng's GIRAFFE reconstruction has good anti-reflux efficacy and gastric emptying function; it can be one of the choices of reconstruction methods after proximal gastrectomy.

ABSTRACT Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been the choice of bariatric procedure for patients with symptomatic reflux - and is known to be effective in reducing the need for anti-reflux medication postoperatively. However, a small number of RYGB patients can still develop severe reflux symptoms that require a surgical intervention. Aim: To examine and describe the patient population that requires an anti-reflux procedure after RYGB evaluating demographics, characteristics, symptoms and diagnosis Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on 32 patients who underwent a hiatal hernia repair and/or Nissen fundoplication after RYGB Jul 1st, 2014 and Dec 31st, 2019. Patients were identified using the MBSAQIP database and their electronic medical records were reviewed. Results: Most patients were female (n=29, 90.6%). The mean age was 52.8 years and the mean body mass index (BMI) was 34.1 kg/m2 at the time of anti-reflux procedure. Patients underwent the anti-reflux procedure at a mean of 7.9 years after the RYGB procedure. The mean percentage of excess BMI loss during the time between RYGB and anti-reflux procedure was 63.4%. Conclusions: Female patients with a significant weight loss may develop a severe reflux symptoms years after RYGB. Complaints of reflux after RYGB should not be overlooked. Careful follow-up and appropriate treatment (including surgical intervention) is needed for this population.
RESUMO Racional: O bypass gástrico em Y-de-Roux (RYGB) tem sido o procedimento bariátrico de escolha para pacientes com refluxo sintomático - e é conhecido por ser eficaz na redução da necessidade de medicação anti-refluxo no pós-operatório. No entanto, um pequeno número de pacientes com RYGB ainda pode desenvolver sintomas de refluxo graves que requerem uma intervenção cirúrgica. Objetivo: Examinar e descrever a população de pacientes que requer procedimento anti-refluxo após RYGB avaliando dados demográficos, características, sintomas e diagnóstico. Métodos: Revisão retrospectiva de prontuários foi realizada em 32 pacientes submetidos a hérnia hiatal e / ou fundoplicatura Nissen após RYGB em 1º de julho de 2014 a 31 de dezembro de 2019. Os pacientes foram identificados por meio do banco de dados MBSAQIP e seus prontuários eletrônicos foram revisados. Resultados: A maioria dos pacientes era do sexo feminino (n = 29 - 90,6%). A média de idade foi de 52,8 anos e o índice de massa corporea (IMC) médio de 34,1 kg / m2 na época do procedimento anti-refluxo. Os pacientes foram submetidos ao procedimento anti-refluxo em média 7,9 anos após o procedimento do BGYR. A porcentagem média de perda do excesso de IMC durante o tempo entre o BGYR e o procedimento anti-refluxo foi de 63,4%. Conclusões: Pacientes do sexo feminino com perda de peso significativa podem desenvolver sintomas graves de refluxo anos após o BGYR. Sintomas de refluxo após RYGB não devem ser negligenciadas. Acompanhamento cuidadoso e tratamento adequado (incluindo intervenção cirúrgica) são necessários para essa população.

ABSTRACT Background: Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is one of the most common indications for conversion of sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) to laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGBP). Objective evaluations are necessary in order to choose the best definitive treatment for these patients. Aim: To present and describe the findings of the objective studies for gastroesophageal reflux disease performed before LSG conversion to LRYGBP in order to support the indication for surgery. Method: Thirty-nine non-responder patients to proton pump inhibitors treatment after LSG were included in this prospective study. They did not present GER symptoms, esophagitis or hiatal hernia before LSG. Endoscopy, radiology, manometry, 24 h pH monitoring were performed. Results: The mean time of appearance of reflux symptoms was 26.8+24.08 months (8-71). Erosive esophagitis was found in 33/39 symptomatic patients (84.6%) and Barrett´s esophagus in five. (12.8%). Manometry and acid reflux test were performed in 38/39 patients. Defective lower esophageal sphincter function was observed independent the grade of esophagitis or Barrett´s esophagus. Pathologic acid reflux with elevated DeMeester´s scores and % of time pH<4 was detected in all these patients. more significant in those with severe esophagitis and Barrett´s esophagus. Radiologic sleeve abnormalities were observed in 35 patients, mainly cardia dilatation (n=18) and hiatal hernia (n=11). Middle gastric stricture was observed in only six patients. Conclusion: Patients with reflux symptoms and esophagitis or Barrett´s esophagus after SG present defective lower esophageal sphincter function and increased acid reflux. These conditions support the indication of conversion to LRYGBP.
RESUMO Racional: O refluxo gastroesofágico é uma das indicações mais comuns para a conversão da gastrectomia vertical (SG) em gastroplastia laparoscópica em Y-de-Roux (LRYGBP). Avaliações objetivas são necessárias para escolher o melhor tratamento definitivo para esses pacientes. Objetivo: Apresentar e descrever os achados objetivos da doença do refluxo gastroesofágico realizados antes da conversão do SG para o LRYGBP, a fim de apoiar a indicação cirúrgica. Método: Trinta e nove pacientes não respondedores ao tratamento com inibidores da bomba de prótons após SG foram incluídos neste estudo prospectivo. Eles não apresentavam sintomas de refluxo gastroesofágico, esofagite ou hérnia hiatal antes da SG. Endoscopia, radiologia, manometria, monitoramento de pH 24 horas foram realizados. Resultados: O tempo médio de aparecimento dos sintomas de refluxo foi de 26,8+24,08 meses (8-71). Esofagite erosiva foi encontrada em 33/39 pacientes sintomáticos (84,6%) e esôfago de Barrett em cinco (12,8%). A manometria e o teste de refluxo ácido foram realizados em 38/39 pacientes. A função alterada do esfíncter inferior do esôfago foi observada independentemente do grau de esofagite ou esôfago de Barrett. Em todos esses pacientes, foi detectado refluxo ácido patológico com escores elevados de DeMeester e % de tempo pH<4, mais significativo nos com esofagite grave e esôfago de Barrett. Anormalidades radiológicas SG foram observadas em 35 pacientes, principalmente dilatação da cárdia (n=18) e hérnia hiatal (n=11). Estenose gástrica foi observada em apenas seis pacientes . Conclusão: Pacientes com sintomas de refluxo e esofagite ou esôfago de Barrett após SG apresentam função do esfíncter esofágico inferior defeituosa e aumento do refluxo ácido. Esses sintomas e estudos objetivos apoiam a indicação de conversão para LRYGBP.

ABSTRACT Background: Extended vertical gastrectomy is a variation of the vertical gastrectomy technique requiring studies to elucidate safety in relation to gastroesophageal reflux. Aim: To analyze comparatively vertical gastrectomy (VG) and extended vertical gastrectomy (EVG) in rats with obesity induced by cafeteria diet in relation to the presence of reflux esophagitis, weight loss and macroscopic changes related to the procedures. Methods: Thirty Wistar rats were randomized into three groups, and after the obesity induction period by means of a 28-day cafeteria diet, underwent a simulated surgery (CG), VG and VGA. The animals were followed up for 28 days in the post-operative period, and after euthanasia, the reflux esophagitis evaluation was histopathologically performed. Weight and macroscopy were the other variables; weight was measured weekly and the macroscopic evaluation was performed during euthanasia. Results: All animals presented some degree of inflammation and the presence of at least one inflammation criterion; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the analysis among the groups. In relation to weight loss, the animals in CG showed a gradual increase during the whole experiment, evolving to super-obesity at the end of the study, while the ones with VG and EVG had weight regain after the first post-operative period; however, a less marked regain compared to CG, both for VG and EVG. Conclusion: There is no difference in relation to reflux esophagitis VG and EVG, as well as macroscopic alterations, and both techniques have the ability to control the evolution of weight during postoperative period in relation to CG.
RESUMO Racional: A gastrectomia vertical ampliada é uma variação da técnica da gastrectomia vertical, necessitando de estudos a fim de elucidar a segurança em relação ao refluxo gastroesofágico. Objetivo: Analisar comparativamente gastrectomia vertical (GV) e gastrectomia vertical ampliada (GVA) em ratos com obesidade induzida por dieta cafeteria em relação à presença de esofagite de refluxo, perda de peso e alterações macroscópicas relacionadas aos procedimentos. Método: Trinta ratos Wistar foram randomizados em três grupos, e após período de indução de obesidade por meio de dieta cafeteria de 28 dias, foram submetidos a operação simulada (grupo controle GC), gastrectomia vertical (grupo GV) e gastrectomia vertical ampliada (grupo GVA). Os animais foram acompanhados por 28 dias no pós-operatório e, após a eutanásia, foi realizada a pesquisa de esofagite de refluxo através de avaliação histopatológica. Peso e avaliação macroscópica foram as outras variáveis de estudo, sendo o peso aferido semanalmente e a avaliação macroscópica no momento da eutanásia. Resultados: Todos os animais apresentaram algum grau de inflamação e a presença de ao menos um critério de inflamação, porém, não houve diferença estatisticamente significante na análise entre os grupos. Em relação à perda de peso, os animais do GC apresentaram aumento gradativo durante todo experimento evoluindo para super-obesidade ao término do estudo, enquanto os dos grupos GV e GVA tiveram reganho de peso após a primeira semana do pós-operatório, porém, reganho menos acentuado se comparável ao GC, tanto para GV quanto para GVA. Conclusões: Não há diferença em relação à esofagite de refluxo entre GV e GVA, bem como em relação às alterações macroscópicas. Ambas as técnicas têm capacidade de controlar a evolução do peso no pós-operatório em relação ao grupo controle.

ABSTRACT Background: Erosion and migration into the esophagogastric lumen after laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with mesh placement has been published. Aim: To present surgical maneuvers that seek to diminish the risk of this complication. Method: We suggest mobilizing the hernia sac from the mediastinum and taking it down to the abdominal position with its blood supply intact in order to rotate it behind and around the abdominal esophagus. The purpose is to cover the on-lay mesh placed in "U" fashion to reinforce the crus suture. Results: We have performed laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair in 173 patients (total group). Early postoperative complications were observed in 35 patients (27.1%) and one patient died (0.7%) due to a massive lung thromboembolism. One hundred twenty-nine patients were followed-up for a mean of 41+28months. Mesh placement was performed in 79 of these patients. The remnant sac was rotated behind the esophagus in order to cover the mesh surface. In this group, late complications were observed in five patients (2.9%). We have not observed mesh erosion or migration to the esophagogastric lumen. Conclusion: The proposed technique should be useful for preventing erosion and migration into the esophagus.
RESUMO Racional: Com a colocação de tela foi têm sido publicadas erosões e migrações para o lúmen esofagogástrico após correção de hérnia hiatal laparoscópica. Objetivo: Apresentar manobras cirúrgicas que buscam diminuir o risco dessa complicação. Método: Sugerimos mobilizar o saco de hérnia do mediastino e levá-lo à posição abdominal com o suprimento sanguíneo intacto, a fim de girá-lo para trás e ao redor do esôfago abdominal. O objetivo é cobrir a malha colocada sobre a forma "U" para reforçar a sutura da crura haital. Resultados: Realizamos reparo laparoscópico de hérnia hiatal em 173 pacientes (grupo total). Complicações pós-operatórias precoces foram observadas em 35 pacientes (27,1%) e um morreu (0,7%) devido a tromboembolismo pulmonar maciço. Cento e vinte e nove pacientes foram acompanhados por média de 41+28 meses. A colocação da tela foi realizada em 79 desses pacientes. O saco remanescente foi girado atrás do esôfago para cobrir a superfície da tela. Nesse grupo, complicações tardias foram observadas em cinco pacientes (2,9%). Não observamos erosão da tela ou migração dela para o lúmen esofagogástrico. Conclusão: A técnica proposta pode ser útil para prevenir a erosão e a migração para o esôfago de telas na correção de hérnias hiatais.

RESUMEN El reflujo gastroesofágico presenta variaciones en cuanto a su definición, pero continúa causando una elevada morbilidad y mortalidad, a pesar que las estadísticas no recogen cifras exactas, su manejo sigue siendo controversial. En la práctica médica, se podría decir que el reflujo gastroesofágico fisiológico, no patológico, usualmente se acompaña de regurgitación, y que en esta enfermedad el síntoma principal de presentación en los niños, es el vómito. Cuando el reflujo gastroesofágico es mantenido, persistente, a pesar de la medidas posturales y dietéticas indicadas, provocando sintomatología digestiva y extradigestiva, se considera patológico, capaz de provocar una enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico. En neumología, no todo niño que tiene sibilancias es un asmático, en gastroenterología no todo niño que vomita o regurgita tiene un reflujo gastroesofágico. Actualmente, se conocen ciertas patologías y condiciones de tórpida evolución que por su historia natural y morbimortalidad, se catalogan como reflujo gastroesofágico refractario, cuyo pronóstico implica una diferente orientación terapéutica. El niño con reflujo gastroesofágico incluye las medidas antirreflujo, tratamiento medicamentoso y quirúrgico (AU).
ABSTRACT The Gastroesophageal Reflux presents variations as for its definition, but it continues causing a high morbility and mortality, to weigh that the statistics don't pick up exact report, its handling continues being controversial. In the medical practice, one could say that the reflux physiologic gastroesophageal, not pathological, usually accompanies of regurgitation, and that in this illness the main symptom of presentation in the children, is the vomit. When RGE is maintained, persistent, in spite of the measures posturales and dietary suitable, provoking digestive symptoms and extradigestive, it is considered pathological, able to provoke an illness for reflux gastroesophageal . In Neumology, not all boy that has lung sonority is an asthmatic one, in Gastroenterology not all boy that vomits or it regurgitation he has a reflux gastroesophageal. At the moment, certain pathologies and conditions of torpid evolution are known that for their natural history and morbimortality, they are classified as reflux refractory gastroesophageal whose presage implies a therapeutic different orientation. The boy with reflux gastroesophageal includes the measures antirreflux, treatment prescribes and surgical (AU).

ABSTRACT Introduction: Several oral problems may be perceived in individuals who were submitted to bariatric surgery, due to metabolic and behavioral changes relative to diet and oral hygiene. Tooth wear appears to suffer impact after bariatric surgery, because there may be an increase in gastroesophageal reflux. Objective: To systematically review the literature regarding the impact of bariatric surgery on gastroesophageal reflux and tooth wear. Method: The following databases were accessed by two independent, calibrated examiners: PubMed, Medline, Lilacs, Scielo and Cochrane using the following descriptors: "bariatric surgery" AND "dental erosion" OR "bariatric surgery" AND "dental erosion" AND "gastroesophageal reflux disease". After excluding duplicate studies, 12 studies were initially evaluated by the title and abstract. The excluded studies were those without relevance to the present research, literature review studies and case reports. Thus, four articles were included in this study. All the articles evaluated indicated high association between gastroesophageal reflux and tooth wear in patients submitted to bariatric surgery. Association of these outcomes was more evident six months after the surgical procedure. Conclusion: Patients submitted to bariatric surgery showed higher prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux and tooth wear.
RESUMO Introdução: Diversos problemas bucais podem ser percebidos nos indivíduos que foram submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica, frente às mudanças metabólicas e comportamentais referentes à alimentação e higienização. O desgaste dentário parece sofrer impacto após a cirurgia bariátrica, uma vez que pode ocorrer o aumento do refluxo gastresofágico após a operação. Objetivo: Analisar o impacto da cirurgia bariátrica no refluxo gastresofágico e no desgaste dentário por meio de uma revisão sistemática da literatura. Método: As seguintes bases de dados foram acessadas por dois examinadores independentes e calibrados: PubMed, Medline, Lilacs, Scielo e Cochrane usando os descritores: "bariatric surgery" AND "dental erosion" OR "bariatric surgery" AND "dental erosion" AND "gastroesophageal reflux disease". Após a exclusão dos estudos duplicados, 12 estudos foram avaliados inicialmente pelo título e resumo. Foram excluídos os sem relevância para a presente pesquisa, os de revisão da literatura e os relatos de caso. Sendo assim, foram incluídos neste estudo quatro artigos. Todos os artigos avaliados indicaram uma alta associação entre refluxo gastresofágico e desgaste dentário em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. A associação destes desfechos foi mais evidente após seis meses do procedimento cirúrgico. Conclusão: Pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica mostram maior prevalência de refluxo gastresofágico e desgaste dentário.

ABSTRACT Background: Obesity represents a growing threat to population health all over the world. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy induces alteration of the esophagogastric angle due to surgery itself, hypotony of the lower esophageal sphincter after division of muscular sling fibers, decrease of the gastric volume and, consequently, increase of intragastric pressure; that's why some patients have reflux after sleeve. Aim: To describe a technique and preliminary results of sleeve gastrectomy with a Nissen fundoplication, in order to decrease reflux after sleeve. Method: In the current article we describe the technique step by step mostly focused on the creation of the wrap and it care. Results: This procedure was applied in a case of 45 BMI female of 53 years old, with GERD. An endoscopy was done demonstrating a hiatal hernia, and five benign polyps. A Nissen sleeve was performed due to its GERD, hiatal hernia and multiple polyps on the stomach. She tolerated well the procedure and was discharged home uneventfully 48 h after. Conclusion: N-sleeve is a feasible and safe alternative in obese patients with reflux and hiatal hernia when Roux-en-Y gastric bypass it is not indicated.
RESUMO Racional: A obesidade representa ameaça crescente à saúde da população em todo o mundo. A gastrectomia por laparoscopia induz alteração do ângulo esofagogástrico devido à própria técnica, hipotonia do esfíncter esofágico inferior após secção de fibras musculares da junção, diminuição do volume gástrico e, consequentemente, aumento da pressão intragástrica; é por isso que alguns pacientes têm refluxo após a gastrectomia vertical. Objetivo: Descrever uma técnica e resultados preliminares da gastrectomia vertical com fundoplicatura a Nissen, a fim de diminuir o refluxo após ela. Método: No artigo atual, descrevemos a técnica passo a passo, principalmente focada na criação da válvula e seu cuidado. Resultados: Este procedimento foi aplicado em um caso de mulher com IMC 45 de 53 anos com DRGE. Foi realizada endoscopia demonstrando hérnia hiatal e cinco pólipos benignos. A gastrectomia vertical com Nissen foi realizada devido à DRGE, à hérnia hiatal e aos múltiplos pólipos no estômago. Ela tolerou bem o procedimento e recebeu alta sem intercorrências 48 h depois. Conclusão: A N-gastrectomia vertical (N-sleeve) é alternativa viável e segura em pacientes obesos com refluxo e hérnia hiatal quando não é indicado o desvio gástrico em Y-de-Roux.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Cerebral palsy may be associated with comorbidities such as undernutrition, impaired growth and gastrointestinal symptoms. Children with cerebral palsy exhibit eating problems due to the effect on the anatomical and functional structures involved in the eating function resulting in malnutrition. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between food intake, nutritional status and gastrointestinal symptoms in children with cerebral palsy. METHODS: Cross-sectional study that included 40 children with cerebral palsy (35 with spastic tetraparetic form and 5 with non-spastic choreoathetoid form of cerebral palsy, all requiring wheelchairs or bedridden) aged from 4 to 10 years. The dietary assessment with the parents was performed using the usual household food intake inquiry. Anthropometric data were collected. Gastrointestinal symptoms associated with deglutition disorders, gastroesophageal reflux and chronic constipation were also recorded. RESULTS: The median of height-for-age Z-score (-4.05) was lower (P<0.05) than the median of weight-for-age (-3.29) and weight-for-height (-0.94). There was no statistical difference between weight-for-age and weight-for-height Z-scores. Three patients with cerebral palsy (7.5%) exhibited mild anemia, with normal ferritin levels in two. Symptoms of dysphagia, gastroesophageal reflux, and constipation were found in 82.5% (n=33), 40.0% (n=16), and 60.0% (n=24) of the sample, respectively. The patients with symptoms of dysphagia exhibited lower daily energy (1280.2±454.8 Kcal vs 1890.3±847.1 Kcal, P=0.009), carbohydrate (median: 170.9 g vs 234.5 g, P=0.023) and fluid intake (483.1±294.9 mL vs 992.9±292.2 mL, P=0.001). The patients with symptoms of gastrointestinal reflux exhibited greater daily fluid intake (720.0±362.9 mL) than the patients without symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux (483.7±320.0 mL, P=0.042) and a greater height-for-age deficit (Z-score: -4.9±1.7 vs 3.7±1.5, P=0.033). The patients with symptoms of constipation exhibited lower daily dietary fiber (9.2±4.3 g vs 12.3±4.3 g, P=0.031) and fluid (456.5±283.1 mL vs 741.1±379.2 mL, P=0.013) intake. CONCLUSION: Children with cerebral palsy exhibited wide variability in food intake which may partially account for their severe impaired growth and malnutrition. Symptoms of dysphagia, gastroesophageal reflux, and constipation are associated with different food intake patterns. Therefore, nutritional intervention should be tailored considering the gastrointestinal symptoms and nutritional status.
RESUMO CONTEXTO: Paralisia cerebral pode estar associada com comorbidades como desnutrição, déficit de crescimento e sintomas gastrintestinais. Os problemas alimentares na paralisia cerebral podem ser secundários a anormalidades anatômicas e funcionais que interferem no processo de alimentação. OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a associação entre ingestão alimentar, estado nutricional e sintomas gastrintestinais em crianças com paralisia cerebral. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal que incluiu 40 crianças com paralisia cerebral (35 com tetraparesia espástica e 5 com coreoatetose não-espástica) com idade entre 4 e 10 anos. Todos os pacientes permaneciam exclusivamente na cama ou dependiam de cadeiras de rodas. Foi utilizado o inquérito dos alimentos consumidos habitualmente em casa que foi respondido pelos pais. Foram mensurados os dados antropométricos. Sintomas gastrintestinais associados com distúrbios da deglutição, refluxo gastroesofágico e constipação intestinal crônica foram obtidos. RESULTADOS: A mediana do escore Z da estatura para idade (-4,05) foi menor (P<0,05) do que a mediana de peso-idade (-3,29) e peso-estatura (-0,94). Não se observou diferença entre os escores Z de peso-idade e peso-estatura. Três pacientes com paralisia cerebral (7,5%) apresentavam anemia leve com valor normal de ferritina. Sintomas de disfagia, refluxo gastroesofágico e constipação intestinal ocorreram, respectivamente, em 82,5% (n=33), 40,0% (n=16) e 60,0% (n=24) dos pacientes estudados. Os pacientes com sintomas de disfagia apresentaram menor ingestão energética diária (1280,2±454,8 Kcal vs 1890,3±847,1 Kcal; P=0,009), de carboidratos (mediana: 170,9 g vs 234,5 g; P=0,023) e de líquidos (483,1±294.9 mL vs 992,9±292,2 mL; P=0,001). Os pacientes com sintomas de refluxo gastroesofágico apresentaram maior ingestão diária de líquidos (720,0±362,9 mL) em relação aos pacientes sem este tipo de manifestação clínica (483,7±320,0 mL; P=0.042) além de maior déficit de estatura-idade (escore Z: -4,9±1,7 vs 3,7±1,5; P=0,033). Os pacientes com sintomas de constipação intestinal apresentaram menor ingestão diária de fibra alimentar (9,2±4,3 g vs 12,3±4,3 g; P=0.031) e líquidos (456,5±283,1 mL vs 741,1± 379,2 mL; P=0,013). CONCLUSÃO: Crianças com paralisia cerebral apresentam uma grande variabilidade na ingestão alimentar que pode, pelo menos em parte, constituir um fator de agravo para o déficit de crescimento. Sintoma de disfagia, refluxo gastroesofágico e constipação intestinal associaram-se com diferentes padrões de ingestão alimentar. Portanto, a intervenção nutricional deve ser individualizada levando em consideração os sintomas gastrintestinais e o estado nutricional.

Varias publicaciones informan un aumento en la tasa de enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE) después de la gastrectomía vertical tubular (GVT) o en manga a pesar que no existe aún consenso al respecto. El objetivo de este artículo es mostrar nuestra propia experiencia y de la literatura respecto a los aspectos clínicos de la enfermedad por ERGE después de la gastrectomía vertical tubular. Del análisis de nuestros resultados y de los datos de la literatura, los estudios que evalúan la prevalencia de la enfermedad de reflujo gastroesofágico posoperatorio muestran que la GVT puede provocar síntomas de ERGE de novo o empeoramiento de la ERGE preexistente.
Several publications report an increase in the rate of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after surgery, although there is still no consensus on this. The aim of this article is to show our own experience and literature regarding the clinical aspects of GERD disease after tubular vertical gastrectomy. From the analysis of our results and data from the literature, studies evaluating the prevalence of postoperative gastro-oesophageal reflux disease show that GVT can cause symptoms of de novo GERD or worsening of pre-existing GERD.

ABSTRACT Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the most common disease of the upper gastrointestinal tract in the Western world. GERD pathophysiology is multifactorial. Different mechanisms may contribute to GERD including an increase in the transdiaphragmatic pressure gradient (TPG). The pathophysiology of GERD linked to TPG is not entirely understood. This review shows that TPG is an important contributor to GERD even when an intact esophagogastric barrier is present in the setting of obesity and pulmonary diseases.
RESUMO A doença do refluxo gastroesofágico (DRGE) é a enfermidade mais comum do trato digestivo alto no mundo ocidental. A fisiopatologia da DRGE é multifatorial. Diferentes mecanismos podem contribuir para um aumento do gradiente pressórico transdiafragmático (GPT). A fisiopatologia da DRGE associada ao GPT não é totalmente compreendida. Esta revisão enfoca que o GPT é um importante contribuinte para DRGE mesmo na presença de uma barreira gastroesofágica intacta como na obesidade e doenças pulmonares crônicas.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Dysphagia is described as a complaint in 32% of patients with laryngitis. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this investigation was to evaluate oral and pharyngeal transit of patients with laryngitis, with the hypothesis that alteration in oral-pharyngeal bolus transit may be involved with dysphagia. METHODS: Videofluoroscopic evaluation of the swallowing of liquid, paste and solid boluses was performed in 21 patients with laryngitis, 10 of them with dysphagia, and 21 normal volunteers of the same age and sex. Two swallows of 5 mL liquid bolus, two swallows of 5 mL paste bolus and two swallows of a solid bolus were evaluated in a random sequence. The liquid bolus was 100% liquid barium sulfate and the paste bolus was prepared with 50 mL of liquid barium and 4 g of food thickener (starch and maltodextrin). The solid bolus was a soft 2.2 g cookie coated with liquid barium. Durations of oral preparation, oral transit, pharyngeal transit, pharyngeal clearance, upper esophageal sphincter opening, hyoid movement and oral-pharyngeal transit were measured. All patients performed 24-hour distal esophageal pH evaluation previous to videofluoroscopy. RESULTS: The evaluation of 24-hour distal esophageal pH showed abnormal gastroesophageal acid reflux in 10 patients. Patients showed longer oral preparation for paste bolus and a faster oral transit time for solid bolus than normal volunteers. Patients with laryngitis and dysphagia had longer preparation for paste and solid boluses, and a faster oral transit time with liquid, paste and solid boluses. CONCLUSION: A longer oral preparation for paste and solid boluses and a faster transit through the mouth are associated with dysphagia in patients with laryngitis.
RESUMO CONTEXTO: Disfagia é uma queixa presente em 32% dos pacientes com laringite. OBJETIVO: O objetivo desta investigação foi avaliar o trânsito oral e faríngeo de pacientes com laringite, com a hipótese de que a alteração no trânsito do bolo pela boca e faringe pode estar envolvida com a queixa de disfagia. MÉTODOS: A avaliação videofluoroscópica da deglutição de bolos líquido, pastoso e sólido foi realizada em 21 pacientes com laringite, 10 deles com disfagia e 21 voluntários normais da mesma idade e sexo. Duas deglutições de 5 mL de bolo líquido, duas deglutições de bolo pastoso e duas deglutições de bolo sólido foram avaliadas em sequência casual definida por sorteio. Bolo líquido foi sulfato de bário 100%, e o bolo pastoso foi preparado com 50 mL de bário líquido e 4 g de espessante alimentar (amido e maltodextrina). O bolo sólido foi 2,2 g de uma bolacha macia embebida em bário líquido. A duração da preparação oral, trânsito oral, trânsito faríngeo, depuração da faringe, abertura do esfíncter superior do esôfago, movimento do hióide e do trânsito oral-faríngeo foram medidas. Precedendo a videofluoroscopia todos pacientes realizaram exame de pHmetria de 24 horas. RESULTADOS: O registro do pH intraesofágico distal revelou resultado anormal em 10 pacientes. Pacientes com laringite apresentaram maior duração da preparação oral para bolo pastoso e um tempo de trânsito oral mais rápido para bolo sólido. Os pacientes com laringite e disfagia tiveram uma preparação oral mais longa para bolo pastoso e sólido e tempo de trânsito oral menor com bolos líquido, pastoso e sólido. CONCLUSÃO: Preparação oral mais longa para bolos pastoso e sólido e trânsito mais rápido através da boca são situações associadas com a presença de disfagia em pacientes com laringite.

Abstract Background: Gastroesophageal pathologies are common and multifactorial in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). The evaluation with endoscopy and 24 h pH esophageal monitoring is expensive and not always available in all medical centers, especially in developing countries so more cost-effective algorithms for diagnosis are required. Clinical questionnaires are easy to apply but its utility for gastroesophageal reflux disease screening in patients with long standing T1DM must be analyzed. Objective: To evaluate the utility of the FSSG and Carlsson-Dent (CDQ) questionnaires to detect the frequency of gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with T1DM. Methods: Analytic cross-sectional study, included 54 randomly selected patients from the T1DM clinic in our hospital. Before their routine evaluation, were asked to answer FSSG and CDQ questionnaires, classifying them as positive with a score >8 or >4, respectively. we associated and compared the clinical and biochemical characteristics between patients with or without gastroesophageal reflux detected through questionnaires. Results: Median age was 29 years (22-35), 67% were female (median of 16 years from diagnosis). In 39% of the patients FSSG was positive, CDQ was positive in 28%. A total of 71% of patients were taking medications to treat non-specific gastric symptoms. The concordance between questionnaires was 65% (p: <0.001). Those patients with tobacco consumption as well as those with poor glycemic control were more likely to score positive in either questionnaire. Conclusions: Patients T1DM had a high prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease. In those patients FSSG questionnaire detected a higher number of patients in comparison with CDQ.
Resumen Introducción: Las patologías gastroesofágicas son comunes y multifactoriales en pacientes con diabetes tipo 1 (DM1). La evaluación por medio de panendoscopia y pHmetría es costosa y difícil de realizar en todos los centros de atención, por lo que se requieren algoritmos rentables para su diagnóstico. Existen cuestionarios sencillos y autoaplicables que pueden ser útiles para el diagnóstico de enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico en los pacientes con DM1. Objetivo: Evaluar la utilidad de los cuestionarios FSSG y Carlsson-Dent (CDQ) para detectar la enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE) en pacientes con DM1. Métodos: Estudio transversal, se incluyeron 54 pacientes, elegidos al azar de la clínica de DMT1. Previo a la consulta, se les solicitó contestaran los cuestionarios FSSG y el CDQ, considerándose positivos para diagnóstico de ERGE los puntajes >8 y >4, respectivamente. Se analizaron y compararon las características bioquímicas y clínicas entre los pacientes con y sin síntomas de ERGE detectada por medio de los cuestionarios. Resultados: Los pacientes estudiados tenían edad de 29 años (22-35), 67% fueron mujeres, (mediana de diagnóstico de 16 años). El 39% de los pacientes tenían ERGE detectado mediante FSSG y 28% utilizando el cuestionario CDQ. El 71% de los pacientes reportó uso de medicamentos para reflujo. La concordancia entre ambos cuestionarios fue del 65% (p: <0.001). Pacientes que consumen tabaco y con descontrol glucémico, tenían más probabilidades de positividad en cualquier cuestionario. Conclusiones: Existe una alta prevalencia de ERGE en los pacientes con DM1. En esta población el cuestionario FSSG detectó a un mayor número de pacientes en comparación con el CDQ.

Background: Dehiscence of esophageal anastomosis is frequent and there are still controversies which type of anastomosis is preferred to diminish its incidence . Aim: To compare end-to-end anastomosis versus end-to-side anastomosis in terms of anastomotic leakage, esophageal stricture and gastroesophageal reflux symptom. Methods: This study was carried out for two year starting from 2012. End-to-side and end-to-side anastomosis were compared in terms of anastomotic leakage, esophageal stricture, gastroesophageal reflux symptom, length of surgery and pack cell infusion. Results: Respectively to end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis, duration of surgery was 127.63±13.393 minutes and 130.29±10.727 minutes (p=0.353); esophageal stricture was noted in two (5.9%) and eight (21.1%) cases (p=0.09); gastroesophageal reflux disease was detected in six (15.8%) and three (8.8%) cases (p=0.485); anastomotic leakage was found in five (13.2%) and one (2.9%) cases (p=0.203); duration of neonatal intensive care unit admission was significantly shorter in end-to-end (11.05±2.438 day) compared to end-to-side anastomosis (13.88±2.306 day) (p<0.0001). Conclusion: There were no significant differences between end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis except for length of neonatal intensive care unit admission which was significantly shorter in end-to-end anastomosis group.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Proton pump inhibitor-responsive esophageal eosinophilia (PPI-REE) is a newly recognized form of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) that responds to PPI therapy. It remains unclear whether PPI-REE represents a subphenotype of gastroesophageal reflux disease, a subphenotype of EoE, or its own distinct entity. The aim was to evaluate the clinicopathologic features of PPI-REE. METHODS: Six patients were diagnosed with PPI-REE based on symptoms, endoscopic abnormalities, esophageal eosinophilia with > or =15 eosinophils/high-power field, and a response to PPI treatment. Symptoms and endoscopic and pathological findings were evaluated. RESULTS: The median follow-up duration was 12 months. Presenting symptoms included dysphagia, heartburn, chest pain, foreign body sensation, acid reflux, and sore throat. All patients had typical endoscopic findings of EoE such as esophageal rings, linear furrows, nodularity, and whitish plaques. Three patients had a concomitant allergic disorder, and one had reflux esophagitis. Four patients exhibited elevated serum IgE, and five had positive skin prick tests. All patients experienced symptomatic resolution within 4 weeks and histologic resolution within 8 weeks after starting PPI therapy. There was no symptomatic recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: PPI therapy induced rapid resolution of symptoms and eosinophil counts in patients with PPI-REE. Large-scale studies with long-term follow-up are warranted.

To evaluate the occurrence of dental erosion (DE) in children with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and to analyse its association with diet, oral hygiene, socio-demographic characteristics and medical history.Material and Methods:The study sample consisted of43 children (2-14 years) with a positive diagnosis of GERD after 24-hour pH monitoring. Dental erosion was assessed by one trained examiner using the O'Sullivan index. A questionnaire was completed by parents, which provided information on dietary habits, oral hygiene, socio-demographics and medical history of the children. Data analysis was performed using a chi-square test and Poisson regression (p <0.05).Results:Dental erosion was diagnosed in 25.6% (N=11) of children. The most affected surfaces werethe palatal and incisal (62.1%, N=18). Socio-demographic characteristics and dietary habits were not associated with dental erosion occurrence. The regression model showed that children who used adult toothpaste (PR 4.98, 95% CI 1.34 -18.51) and asthma medication (PR 3.65, 95% CI 1.24 -10.70) had a higher risk of dental erosion.Conclusion:Dental erosion in children with GERD was associated with the use of adult toothpaste and asthma medication...

BACKGROUND: The association between obesity and gastroesophageal reflux disease has a high incidence and may be present in half of obese patients with surgical indication. Bariatric operations can also induce reflux alone - differently from BMI factors - and its mechanisms are dependent on the type of procedure performed. OBJECTIVE: To perform a literature review comparing the two procedures currently most used for surgical treatment of obesity and analyze their relationship with the advent of pre-existing reflux disease or its appearance only in postoperative period. METHOD: The literature was reviewed in virtual database Medline/PubMed, SciELO, Lilacs, Embase and Cochrane crossing the following MeSH descriptors: gastric bypass AND / OR anastomosis, Roux-en-Y AND / OR gastroesophageal reflux AND / OR gastroenterostomy AND / OR gastrectomy AND / OR obesity AND / OR bariatric surgery AND / OR postoperative period. A total of 135 relevant references were considered but only 30 were used in this article. Also was added the experience of the authors of this article in handling these techniques on this field. CONCLUSION: The structural changes caused by surgical technique in vertical gastrectomy shows greater commitment of antireflux mechanisms predisposing the induction of GERD postoperatively compared to the surgical technique performed in the gastrointestinal Bypass Roux-en-Y. .
INTRODUÇÃO: A associação entre obesidade e doença do refluxo gastroesofágico apresenta alta incidência e pode estar presente em metade dos obesos com indicação cirúrgica. Operações bariátricas podem também induzir refluxo por si só - de modo diferente do fator IMC -, e seus mecanismos são dependentes do tipo do procedimento realizado. OBJETIVO: Efetuar revisão bibliográfica comparando os dois procedimentos atualmente mais utilizados para tratamento cirúrgico da obesidade e analisar a relação deles com o advento de doença do refluxo gastroesofágico pré-existente ou de surgimento somente no pós-operatório. MÉTODO: Foi realizada revisão bibliográfica nas bases virtuais Medline/Pubmed, Scielo, Lilacs, Embase e Cochrane cruzando os seguintes descritores MeSH: gastric bypass AND/OR anastomosis, Roux-en-Y AND/OR gastroesophageal reflux AND/OR gastroenterostomy AND/OR gastrectomy AND/OR obesity AND/OR bariatric surgery AND/OR postoperative period. Foram consideradas pertinentes 135 referências e utilizadas 30 neste artigo. Também foi adicionada a experiência dos autores deste artigo no manuseio dessas técnicas com esse mister. CONCLUSÃO: As alterações estruturais causadas pela técnica operatória na gastrectomia vertical apresenta maior comprometimento dos mecanismos anti-refluxo predispondo a indução da DRGE no pós-operatório quando comparado à técnica operatória realizada no Bypass gastrointestinal em Y-de-Roux. .
