Extraesophageal Reflux: What Is the Best Parameter for pH-Monitoring Data Analysis from the Perspective of Patient Response to Proton Pump Inhibitors?
Table 4
Number of patients with a positive therapeutic trial (TT+) and a negative therapeutic trial (TT−) in group of patients with extraesophageal reflux confirmed by pH-monitoring (EER+) and without EER (EER−) using three different parameters (NOR: number of refluxes, AET: acid exposure time, RAI: reflux area index). Fischer’s exact test was used for statistical analysis of differences between the EER+ and the EER− group.
