| Core Tip |
Thirty-five non-erosive reflux disease patients with persistent symptoms, despite taking rabeprazole 10 mg twice daily, were included. In 14 (40%) symptom index (SI)-positive patients, with liquid weakly acid reflux, the occurrence rate of reflux symptoms in pro-ximal reflux episodes was significantly more frequent (46.7%) than in distal ones (5.7%) (P < 0.001). With mixed liquid-gas weakly acid reflux, the occurrence rate of reflux symptoms in proximal reflux episodes was significantly more frequent (31.0%) than in distal reflux ones (3.3%) (P < 0.001). The proximal extent of weakly acidic liquid and mixed liquid-gas reflux is a major factor of reflux perception in SI-positive patients on proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
