Objective: The aim: To determine the diagnostic value of non-invasive methods of GERD diagnosis based on questionnaire data and a diagnostic test with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) with Rabeprazole in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: 90 patients were under observation, namely, 68 patients with coronary heart disease with concomitant essential arterial hyperten¬sion (EAH), 6 patients with coronary artery disease + arrhythmias, and 18 - others diseases. All patients were surveyed according to the GerdQ questionnaire, followed by PPI testing with Rabeprazole, and body mass index (BMI) was calculated for all the patients.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate liver function in chronic hepatitis C patients who also have chronic pancreatitis, particularly focusing on the role of pancreatic enzyme activity.
- 72 patients were analyzed: 52 with both CHC and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (EI), and 20 with CHC but without EI; various liver and pancreatic function tests were performed.
- The results showed that patients with both CHC and CP with EI had significantly worse liver conditions, including higher levels of liver damage and fibrosis, alongside lower albumin levels compared to those without pancreatic insufficiency.
