Introduction: Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is a collection of symptoms due to gastric contents or gastroduodenal backflow reflux fluid. The prevalence of LPR is very difficult to determine because of the limitations of the gold standard and the considerable variation in LPR symptoms. Aim: to determine the profile of laryngopharyngeal reflection patientsMethod: This research used analytic retrospectively, the data obtained from the medical record of outpatient unit of the Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Outpatient Unit, Dr. Soetomo Teaching Hospital. The data obtained in the study are displayed in tables and analyzed descriptively. The research sample was taken according total sampling from January 2017 to December 2018 who met the inclusion criteria.Result: 42 samples met the requirements. 64.29% patient were female and 35.71% were male with the majority of patient was patient was 41-50 years old (26.19%). Most of the comorbidities had a history of GERD about 76.2%. The mean of the reflux symptom index score performed was 18.38, with a standard deviation of ± 8.01 and the reflux findings scores was 9.11, with a standard deviation of ± 4.25. The most frequent complaints experience was frequent mucus or clearing of the throat (90.48%) and the most frequent finding in laryngeal endoscopy was erythema/hyperemia (88.1%). Conclusion:Profiles of patients with laryngopharyngeal reflux were mostly female with age between 41 and 50 years old. The main complaint of the throat felt blocked, and the most comorbidities were GERD.

“…Recent research has helped to confirm and build on the ideas of these early pioneers, shedding light on the complicated relationship between ETD, LPR, and ABV. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] LPR is a type of GERD that affects the upper airway and can cause symptoms such as hoarseness, coughing, and throat clearing. 13 ABV is a condition in which dizziness is caused by a change in pressure in one ear compared to the other.…”

From pioneers to modern medicine: tracing the evolution of our understanding of the relationship between Eustachian tube dysfunction, alternobaric vertigo, and laryngopharyngeal reflux

Decades of research have been devoted to understanding the complicated connections between the ears, nose, throat, and stomach. Pioneers in the discipline of otolaryngology/ear, nose, and throat (ENT), James Yearsley (1805–1869) and Peter Allen (1826–1844), produced theories and concepts that allowed us to determine the relationship between these items. The current study has contributed to clarifying the complex relationship between Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD), alternobaric vertigo (ABV), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), and nasopharyngeal reflux (NPR). These interrelationships are required for guiding otolaryngology research and improving patient care. This article investigates the historical and contemporary links between ETD, ABV, and LPR. James Yearsley developed the concept of "stomach deafness" in 1843, suggesting a relationship between stomach issues and hearing loss. Peter Allen thought that ETD might be related to vertigo, especially "alternobaric vertigo," which happens when the air pressure changes in the labyrinth and affects the fluid in it. Recent investigations have shown that NPR or LPR can produce ETD and ABV by irritating and inflaming the Eustachian tube. For otolaryngology research to progress and patient care to improve, it is critical to understand both the historical and modern perspectives on these complex interactions.

ObjectivePatients experiencing unexplained chronic throat symptoms (UCTS) are frequently referred to gastroenterology and otolaryngology outpatient departments for investigation. Often despite extensive investigations, an identifiable structural abnormality to account for the symptoms is not found. The objective of this article is to provide a concise appraisal of the evidence-base for current approaches to the assessment and management of UCTS, their clinical outcomes, and related healthcare utilisation.DesignThis multidisciplinary review critically examines the current understanding of aetiological theories and pathophysiological drivers in UCTS and summarises the evidence base underpinning various diagnostic and management approaches.ResultsThe evidence gathered from the review suggests that single-specialty approaches to UCTS inadequately capture the substantial heterogeneity and pervasive overlaps among clinical features and biopsychosocial factors and suggests a more unified approach is needed.ConclusionDrawing on contemporary insights from the gastrointestinal literature for disorders of gut–brain interaction, this article proposes a refreshed interdisciplinary approach characterised by a positive diagnosis framework and patient-centred therapeutic model. The overarching aim of this approach is to improve patient outcomes and foster collaborative research efforts.
