Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The role of genetic factors in the etiology of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is still uncertain. AIM: To define whether the presence of reflux symptoms in first-degree relatives can affect the severity of the endoscopic picture of patients with GERD and disease evolution during follow-up. PATIENTS/METHODS: A total of 1930 consecutive patients with GERD were referred for endoscopy from Trikala...
