Background: The results of empirical trials with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for management of gastro-oesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC) have resulted in considerable controversy, and the mechanism of PPI refractoriness remains unclear. Our study aims to identify the predictors of PPI refractoriness of GERC in a retrospective clinical study.
Methods: In total, 128 GERC patients were enrolled between March 2018 and October 2022. Regression analysis was utilised to create a model for predicting PPI-refractory of GERC using retrospective analysis of the general data and MII-pH indicators.
Results: The post-reflux swallow induced peristaltic wave index (PSPWI) was lower in the PPI-refractory group than the PPI-responsive group (33.89±7.38 39.45±9.47, respectively, p<0.001), as were the mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) and proximal MNBI (2092.11 (IQR: 652.23)] 2426.52 (IQR: 917.39) Ω, respectively, p=0.012; 1599.50 (IQR: 1206.63) 2274.50 (IQR: 1775.29) Ω, respectively, p=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the PSPWI (odds ratio 0.919, p=0.001) as an independent predictor of PPI-refractory GERC.
Conclusions: The diagnostic value of both proximal MNBI ≤39.90% and MNBI ≤2233.58 Ω had moderate sensitivity (71.67%) and specificity (75.00%) to identify PPI-refractory GERC.

Introduction: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) are widely used to manage gastric acid-related disorders by inhibiting hydrochloric acid (HCl) secretion from parietal cells in the stomach. Although PPIs are known to have anti-inflammatory properties beyond their role in inhibiting gastric acid secretion, research on P-CABs is lacking. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether all available P-CABs exhibit anti-inflammatory effects in gastroesophageal reflux-induced esophagitis and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Background: Finding a simple, effective and rapid diagnostic method to improve the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC) is indicated. Our objective was to determine the diagnostic value of the pepsin concentration in saliva and induced sputum for GERC.
Methods: 171 patients with chronic cough were enrolled.

Introduction: Post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave index (PSPWI) and mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) are novel parameters reflect esophageal clearance capacity and mucosal integrity. They hold potential in aiding the recognition of gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC). Our study aims to investigate their diagnostic value in GERC.

Introduction: Epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity (EMP), the process through which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal features, is needed for wound repair but also might contribute to cancer initiation. Earlier, in vitro studies showed that Barrett's cells exposed to acidic bile salt solutions (ABS) develop EMP. Now, we have (1) induced reflux oesophagitis in Barrett's oesophagus (BO) patients by stopping proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), (2) assessed their biopsies for EMP and (3) explored molecular pathways underlying reflux-induced EMP in BO cells and spheroids.
