Nevertheless, the relationship between two pathologies and role of GER in aggravation of asthma are not well known.

The patients were divided into two groups Group A composed of 16 children suffering from non-allergic asthma characterized by prevalent nocturnal manifestation; Group B composed of 16 children suffering from GER, without respiratory symptoms.
