Maior prevalência de obesidade na doença do refluxo gastroesofagiano erosiva

Abstract: RESUMO -Contexto -Existe uma noção geral de que indivíduos obesos desenvolvem mais freqüentemente a doença do refluxo gastroesofagiano, sendo a orientação de perder peso parte integrante do seu tratamento. Entretanto, uma base científica para esta associação não está plenamente estabelecida. Objetivos -Avaliar a prevalência de obesidade e sobrepeso em pacientes com sintomas típicos de refluxo, com e sem esofagite erosiva. Analisar a prevalência de hérnia hiatal e a intensidade do refluxo anormal em relação ao … Show more

“…Coronary heart disease, hypertension and stroke, certain types of cancer, diabetes, gallbladder disease, dyslipidemia, osteoarthritis, gout, and pulmonary diseases, including sleep apnea [ 10 ] are some comorbidities directly related to obesity. Obesity has been associated with oral conditions such as periodontal disease [ 11 , 12 ], dental caries [ 13 ], dental wear [ 14 , 15 ] and xerostomia [ 16 ]. As part of overall general health [ 9 ], oral health is relevant in primary prevention and risk-reduction strategies [ 9 , 17 , 18 ].…”

“…In this study, 14 patients had LES hypotonia, with the majority (76.92%) being overweight or obese. Although the statistical analysis did not show correlation, this finding may have exerted some influence on this variable due to the increased frequency of defects and higher incidence of transient relaxation of lower esophageal sphincter 2 , 3 .…”

“…On the other hand, one study in Korea (8) showed that this BMI value, in a multivariate analysis, is not a risk factor, whereas the hernia is statistically associated with the erosive form. Biccas et al (16) observed a significantly higher prevalence of hiatal hernia in EE patients, but did not attribute this increase to overweight. Thus, although obesity leads to a greater possibility of hiatal hernia, it does not seem to influence the role of the hernia as a predictor of severity in EGD.…”
