Abstract
In patients with reflux-related symptoms, with or without grade A oesophagitis, the water load test is frequently abnormal, suggesting an altered gastric function. This could explain the incomplete resolution of symptoms after treatment in some patients, and should lead to additional studies aimed at exploring gastric function in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease patients.
