RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the phenotypic and visceral signs of connective tissue dysplasia (CTD) and comorbid diseases of the digestive system in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients with different types of esophageal reflux as the predictors of its variants. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In 124 patients with GERD the clinical features, phenotypic and visceral signs of undifferentiated CTD were studied in details. RESULTS: In 82.0% of patients with GERD associated with gastroesophageal type of reflux (GER) phenotypic and especially visceral signs of STD were detected, mainly in the form of cardiochalasia and hiatal hernia. In patients with duodenogastroesophageal reflux symptoms (DGER) the signs of STD were marked in 42.0% of cases, mostly in the form of biliary tract structure abnormalities. The risk of GERD associated with prevalence of GER, was 11.9 times higher in the presence of diagnostically meaningful combination of 6 or more signs of STD than in patients with DGER. Realization of predictor options in GER occurs in the preference of sharp, acidic foods, spices, taking medications that reduce lower esophageal sphincter tone. GERD, associated with DGER, is formed in patients with family history of diseases of the biliary tract and in the preference of food rich of calories. CONCLUSION: Study of STD symptoms as predictors of structural development of GERD and its variants is prospective to predict disease, choice of profession and eating behavior, primarily in young adults.

AIM: To study the specific features of the clinical course of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) associated with duodenogastroesophageal reflux (DGER) in patients with chronic acalculous cholecystitis (CAC) and cholelithiasis (CL), as well as qualitative and quantitative characteristics. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The clinical, morphological, motor tonic characteristics of the esophagogastroduodenal area, mucosal microbial biocenosis in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum were studied in detail in 83 patients with GERD that was associated with DGER and ran concurrently with CAC or CL. RESULTS: Impaired duodenal propulsive activity as a concomitance of the signs of gastrostasis and duodenal dyskinesia with dyscoordination of both anthroduodenal and duodenojejunal propulsion and with the development of duodenogastric reflux and DGER, which in turn determine esophageal and gastric pH values is shown to be of importance in CAC and CL, which match GERD. Abnormal microbiocenosis in the upper digestive tract is characterized by the higher quantitative and qualitative content of the mucous microflora. Opportunistic microorganisms exhibit cytotoxic, hemolytic, lecithinase, caseinolytic, urease, and RNAase activities. CONCLUSION: The found specific features of the course of GERD associated with DGER in patients with biliary tract abnormalities lead us to search for novel therapeutic approaches based on the correction of digestive motor tonic disorders and abnormal microbiocenoses of the mucous flora in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.

AIM: To study the clinical and pathogenetic types of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in terms of different types of reflux into the esophagus, their risk factors and predictors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The clinical, morphological, motor tonic characteristics of the esophagogastroduodenal area, the phenotypic and visceral signs of existing undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasias (UDCTD), and the suprasegmental and segmental autonomic apparatus were studied in detail in 124 patients with GERD. RESULTS: Two clinical and pathogenetic types of GERD associated with the predominance of gastroesophageal or duodenogastroesophageal refluxes (GER and DGER) are identified. The type of the disease running in the predominance of GER develops in subjects with the high rate of visceral stigmas of UDCTD--cardiac failure and hiatal hernias, sympathetic autonomic tone in the digestive system. The feeding preference of piquant and spicy dishes and spices serves to realize the predictors of this type. The DGER-associated type develops in subjects with a concurrence of sympathetic and parasympathetic total autonomic tones in the digestive system in the presence of preexisting biliary tract diseases, including abnormalities in the structure of the gallbladder as visceral signs of UDCTD and it is realized in the feeding preference of high-calorie dishes. CONCLUSION: It is promising to study the autonomic status and the signs of UDCTD as structural and functional predictors of GERD and its types for the prediction of the disease, professional orientation, and the acquisition of eating behavior primarily in young people.
