The primary goal of this study was to investigating the symptoms, in addition to the reflux-related laryngopharynx inflammation performance of asymptomatic, volunteers, and verified the 'normal point'.
A total of 91 asymptomatic subjects were recruited for this cross-sectional study between March 2016 and September 2016. Participants completed the reflux symptom index (RSI) assessment and underwent laryngostroboscopic examination using a rigid endoscope. Their RFS were graded according to the laryngeal findings. The distribution and the relationship of the RSI and the RFS were analyzed.
The mean RSI of individuals was 2.24 ± 2.34 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.75, 2.72], and the mean RFS of individuals was 5.78 ± 1.74 (95% CI = 5.42, 6.15). The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient of the RSI and RFS scores was -0.084 (n = 91, p = .428).
Asymptomatic people could present relatively high RFS scores, and no linear relationship existed between RSI and RFS.
本研究的主要目的是除了调查无症状志愿者的反流相关喉咽炎症表现外，还要研究其症状，并验证“正常点”。
2016年3月至2016年9月期间，共招募了91名无症状受试者参与这项横断面研究。参与者完成了反流症状指数（RSI）评估，并使用硬式内窥镜进行了喉动态镜检查。根据喉部检查结果对他们的反流发现评分（RFS）进行分级。分析了RSI和RFS的分布及关系。
个体的平均RSI为2.24±2.34[95%置信区间（CI）=1.75，2.72]，个体的平均RFS为5.78±1.74（95%CI=5.42，6.15）。RSI和RFS评分的Pearson积矩相关系数为-0.084（n=91，p=0.428）。
无症状人群可能呈现相对较高的RFS评分，且RSI和RFS之间不存在线性关系。
