Abstract
The LPRD patients showed significantly longer acid reflux time in the upper esophagus than the control group. In the LPRD group, the LPRD with RE patients had more frequent acid exposure in the upper esophagus than the LPRD without RE. A pH level of 5 could be appropriate as a cutoff level for the diagnosis of LPRD in upper esophagus pH monitoring.
