Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)NCT01570842
Anthropometry in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Esophageal Injury
A study testing Anthropometric measurements and Tissue samples in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
Is waist to hip ratio (WHR), waist circumference (WC), (as markers of visceral adiposity) associated with an increase in acidic and non acidic reflux as well as systemic inflammation involving esophageal mucosa, thereby increasing esophageal injury and predisposing to subsequent development of Barrett's esophagus (BE)?

About this study
Official title: The Role of Anthropometry in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Esophageal Injury
Is waist to hip ratio (WHR), waist circumference (WC), (as markers of visceral adiposity) associated with an increase in acidic and non acidic reflux as well as systemic inflammation involving esophageal mucosa, thereby increasing esophageal injury and predisposing to subsequent development of Barrett's esophagus (BE)?
Read the detailed description
The investigators will study 100 adult subjects over the age of 18 from the esophageal motility lab who are undergoing clinically indicated 24 hour acidity or basicity (pH) impedance and/or pH studies off acid suppressing medication.. These subjects will not have a prior history of esophageal surgery, or diagnosis of BE. The investigators will obtain consent for taking anthropometric measurements (Waist and hip circumference), and the results of their study. Only those subjects that successfully complete the 24 hour pH impedance studies will be included. Subjects will also undergo clinically indicated endoscopy. The investigators will consent these subjects to obtain 4 biopsies (bx) from the gastroesophageal (GE) junction and 4 bx from 5 cm above the GE junction. These bio-specimens will be stored for assessment of tissue injury (PGE2) and tissue immune-histochemistry of BE precursors (CDX1 and CDX2) at a later date.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Correlate Anthropometry with number of acid reflux episodes
To correlate measures of central obesity waist/hip ratio (WHR) and waist circumference (WC) with number of reflux episodes (acidic and non acidic), and other measures of acid/non acid reflux. Stratify by use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).
Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Anthropometric measurements and Tissue samples in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Correlate Anthropometry with number of acid reflux episodes (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Mar 2014.
