Core Tip	Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a precursor of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Western countries have published more research on BE than China has. Thus, epidemiological knowledge of BE in China is inadequate. Diagnosis and treatment of BE in China is based on western criteria, therefore, diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of BE require more data based on the unique characteristics of patients and clinics in China. The current research analyzed 69 clinical studies to obtain a comprehensive understanding of BE in China. Results provide important guidelines that can help improve the treatment and follow-up of BE patients in China.
