Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is increasing around the world due to abdominal obesity with altered eating habits and decreased physical activity. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for gastroesophagial reflux disease (GERD) symptoms and the prevalence of GERD in patients with MetS.
Five hundred patients (MetS, n=300 and the control group, n=200) were enrolled in the study. A detailed questionnaire reflux symptoms and behavioral habits was performed.
Sixty percent of the subjects were with MetS. GERD rate was significantly higher in the group with MetS compared to subjects without MetS (50.7% vs 26%). Women were more likely to have GERD in both groups (62.6% of women and 28.6% of men ın the MetS group while corresponding rates were 37% vs 16.7% in the control group). Waist circumferences were found to be higher in female MetS patients with GERD.
GERD is present approximately in every one of the two patients with MetS. Every patient who has MetS should be evaluated in terms of GERD symptoms.
由于饮食习惯改变和身体活动减少导致腹部肥胖,代谢综合征(MetS)在全球范围内呈上升趋势。本研究的目的是确定代谢综合征患者胃食管反流病(GERD)症状的危险因素及GERD的患病率。
本研究纳入500例患者(代谢综合征患者300例,对照组200例)。对反流症状和行为习惯进行了详细问卷调查。
60%的受试者患有代谢综合征。与无代谢综合征的受试者相比,代谢综合征组的GERD发生率显著更高(50.7%对26%)。两组中女性患GERD的可能性更大(代谢综合征组中62.6%的女性和28.6%的男性患GERD,而对照组中相应比例分别为37%对16.7%)。发现患有GERD的女性代谢综合征患者腰围更高。
每两名代谢综合征患者中约有一人患有GERD。每一位患有代谢综合征的患者都应就GERD症状进行评估。
