Esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring in esophagus surgery:28-year Chinese experience in a single center

Objective To retrospectively review the experience of esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring in e-sophagus surgery. Methods From 1982 to 2010,patients with unspecific chest pain and undergone esophageal surgery were received esophageal manometry and 24-hour pH monitoring. Results Among the patients with

Can pH Monitoring Predict Gastric Emptying Measured by ¹³C-Acetate Breath Test in Gastroesophageal Reflux with Neurological Impairment?

Introduction: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) often occurs in patients with gastroesophageal reflux (GER) due to neurological impairment (NI). 13C has been used as an alternative tool for measuring the gastric emptying rates. The aim of this study was to predict gastric emptying in children with GER using 13C-acetate breath test (ABT) by 24-hour pH monitoring. Methods: Nineteen patients were divided into 2 groups: a DGE group with NI (14 patients), and normal-emptying group without NI (5 patients). The liquid test meal consisted of RacolTM (5 ml/kg) mixed with 13C-acetate (50 mg for infants, 100 mg for children, and 150 mg for adolescents). 13CO2 was measured using a gas chromatograph-isotope ratio mass spectrometer. The results are expressed as the % of 13C expired per hour and cumulative 13C excretion over a 3-hour periods including the parameters of half excretion and lag time. Results: The mean half excretion time was 1.762 hour in the DGE group and 1.095 hour in the normal-emptying group (P = 0.0196). The mean lag time was 0.971 hour in the DGE group and 0.666 hour in the normal-emptying group (P = 0.0196). Therefore, DGE was significantly more prevalent in the DGE compared to the normal-emptying group. The percentage of the time when the pH was less than 4 on 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring was 21.6% ± 9.2% in the DGE group and 28.5% ± 11.6% in the normal-emptying group (P = 0.4634). Conclusion: The percentage of time when the pH is less than 4 on 24-hour pH monitoring cannot predict DGE measured by the 13C-ABT in GER.

胆囊切除术后患者十二指肠胃反流的研究

目的 观察胆囊切除术后综合征 (postcholecystectomysyndrome,PCS)患者十二指肠胃反流 (duodenogastricre flux ,DGR)的变化 ,探讨胆囊切除后DGR发生情况及其与PCS的关系。方法 2 0例胆囊切除术后综合征患者行动态 2 4h胃内pH和胆红素 (Bilitec 2 0 0 0 )检测 ,并与 10例胆石症患者和 15例正常对照者作比较。结果 胆囊切除术后综合征组与正常对照组比较 ,碱反流和胆汁反流均不增加。胆石症组碱反流较对照组增加 ,胆汁反流不增加。

非糜烂性反流病临床和动力特征的初步研究

目的 对非糜烂性反流病 (NERD)临床和食管功能检查的特征进行初步的探讨。方法 74例根据内镜检查、2 4h食管pH和胆汁联合监测的结果分为NERD组 ( 3 6例 )和反流性食管炎 (RE) ( 3 8例 ) ,对其进行一般状况、内镜表现和动力检查等方面的比较分析。结果 NERD组的女性发病倾向、合并食管裂孔疝少 ,与RE存在显著差异。两组 2 4h食管pH监测无显著差异 ,但NERD组 2 4h食管胆汁监测的各项指标 :光吸收值 >0 .14时间百分比 ( % )、反流 >5min的次数分别为 8.6± 11.8、3 .0± 3 .8,均显著RE低于相应的 17.1± 2 2 .2、5 .4± 6.0 ,体部收缩波幅则高于RE患者 (P <0 .0 5 )。结论 NERD与RE患者的临床、食管动力特征存在差异 ,RE患者中十二指肠胃食管反流 (DGER)发生更频繁 ,相对更为严重 。

十二指肠胃食管反流在胃食管反流病中的作用

目的 研究十二指肠胃食管反流 (DGER)在胃食管反流病发病机制中的作用及其对非糜烂性反流病 (NERD)的诊断价值。方法 95例患者根据内镜检查的结果分为反流性食管炎和NERD组 ,对其均进行 2 4h食管 pH和胆汁联合监测。 结果 反流性食管炎患者DGER的各项指标 :吸光度值 >0 14时间百分比 (% )、总反流次数和反流 >5min的次数分别为 19 0 5± 2 3 4 4、30 5 6±34 0 4和 5 90± 6 37,均显著高于NERD组相应的 7 2 6± 11 0 8、15 6 8± 2 0 92和 2 5 9± 3 5 7(P <0 0 5 ) ,而酸反流差异无显著性 ,随着反流性食管炎的程度加重DGER发生率增高 ;18 2 %的NERD患者存在单纯DGER ,联合胆汁监测可使NERD诊断阳性率由 6 5 9%升高到 84 1%。结论 DGER可以单独发生 ,在引起反流性食管黏膜损伤或症状方面都有作用 ,2 4h食管 pH和胆汁联合监测有助于NERD的诊断。
