There is a possible relationship between gastroesophageal reflux and overweight, that has not been studied extensively.
To study the association between overweight and gastroesophageal reflux in a group of patients and normal controls.
Body mass index of 85 patients with gastroesophageal reflux and 100 patients with Barrett esophagus, was compared with that of 171 healthy controls.
There were no differences in body mass index between healthy subjects and patients with gastroesophageal reflux. However, there was a higher proportion of overweight males and obese females with Barrett esophagus than among healthy controls.
We did not find an association between overweight and gastroesophageal reflux, but patients with Barrett esophagus had a higher body mass index than normal controls.
胃食管反流与超重之间可能存在关联，但尚未得到广泛研究。
研究一组患者及正常对照人群中超重与胃食管反流之间的关联。
比较85例胃食管反流患者、100例巴雷特食管患者的体重指数与171例健康对照者的体重指数。
健康受试者与胃食管反流患者的体重指数无差异。然而，与健康对照者相比，巴雷特食管患者中超重男性和肥胖女性的比例更高。
我们未发现超重与胃食管反流之间存在关联，但巴雷特食管患者的体重指数高于正常对照者。
