Abstract
Background Mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) and post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave (PSPW) index are able to increase the diagnostic yield of impedance-pH and are associated to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) response. Few data concerning these variables in patients with extra-esophageal symptoms (EES) are available. Aims To evaluate, in EES patients, the role of the conventional and new impedance-pH variables in diagnosing GERD and...
