Core Tip	Mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) values add significant strength to a pH-impedance study, can help the clinician towards a correct explanation of a patient’s symptoms and tailor the patient’s therapy. Specific MNBI cut-offs have been proposed by several studies for characterizing patients with reflux symptoms However caution should be taken before applying the proposed cut-offs by the Lyon 2 Consensus. Patients age, body mass index and origin may affect MNBI values.
