A significantly higher esophageal acid exposure especially in the supine position has been documented in BE, as compared with the other gastroesophageal reflux disease phenotypes. In addition, weakly acidic reflux and duodenogastroesophageal reflux are more common in BE patients. The presence of Barrett’s mucosa reduces esophageal mucosal impedance, occasionally to a level that prevents detection of reflux episodes. Reduced amplitude contractions and lower esophageal sphincter basal pressure are more common in BE patients as compared with the other gastroesophageal reflux disease groups. Ineffective esophageal motility is the most commonly defined motor disorder in BE. Reduced chemoreceptor and mechanoreceptor sensitivity to acid and balloon distention, respectively, have been suggested to explain lack or significantly less reports of reflux-related symptoms by BE patients; Key Words: Barrett’s esophagus; GERD; esophageal motility; erosive esophagitis; hiatal hernia UR - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32324680/ UR - https://journals.lww.com/jcge/Abstract/2020/07000/Esophageal_Function_Abnormalities_in_Patients_With.4.aspx ER -
