Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
No-GERD Controls
NERD controls will be enrolled from subjects presenting to the endoscopy unit who are being evaluated for reasons other than GERD or BE surveillance. These are patients who are referred to the endoscopy unit for: evaluation of anemia, dysphagia, occult blood positivity, gastrointestinal blood loss etc.
* No history of GERD
* Response "no" to presence of symptoms on a standardized GERD questionnaire
* No prescriptions for acid suppressive medication over the past 2 years as documented in electronic pharmacy records.
* Normal endoscopy that does not find Barrett's esophagus, hiatus hernia or erosive esophagitis.
No interventions assigned to this group
GERD Controls
* Respond "yes" to the presence of symptoms on a standardized GERD questionnaire
* Prescriptions for acid suppressive medication as documented in electronic pharmacy records.
No interventions assigned to this group
BE Cases
• Patients who present for evaluation of reflux symptoms and are found to have at least 1 cm of columnar lined esophagus on endoscopy with intestinal metaplasia on biopsies. This will include patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma
No interventions assigned to this group
Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
