Predictors of Early and Late Response to Esomezol and Lifestyle Modification in Adults With Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease: A Prospective, Multicenter, Open-Label Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study aimed to assess predictors of the response to varying durations of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use and lifestyle modification treatment for laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD).

Methods

Between October 2014 and June 2016, a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-cohort, intention-to-treat, observational study was conducted at eight referral hospitals across the Republic of Korea to examine predictors of early and late response to treatment in adult patients (age ≥19 years) with LPRD. Participants underwent standard treatment (PPI [Esomezol] and lifestyle modification) for 3 months. Response to treatment was defined as greater than 50% improvement in reflux symptom index score. The primary outcome was potential predictors of treatment response at 1 and 3 months. The secondary outcome was potential predictors distinguishing early from late responders.

Results

In total, 394 patients were enrolled. Improved sleep habits was a positive predictor (odds ratio [OR], 1.785; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.06-3.007; P=0.029), while initial alcohol consumption (OR, 0.587; 95% CI, 0.355-0.969; P=0.037) and past medication history (OR, 0.438; 95% CI, 0.215-0.891; P=0.005) were negative predictors of response after 1 month of treatment. High pre-reflux finding score was a positive predictor (OR, 1.187; 95% CI, 1.049- 1.344; P=0.007), while male sex (OR, 0.516; 95% CI, 0.269-0.987; P=0.046), higher depression score (OR, 0.867; 95% CI, 0.784-0.958; P=0.005), and past thyroid hormone medication history (OR, 0.161; 95% CI, 0.033-0.788; P=0.024) were negative predictors of response after 3 months of treatment. Past medication history (OR, 0.438; 95% CI, 0.215-0.891; P=0.023) was the only negative predictor for early responders compared to late responders.

Conclusion

Adult patients with LPRD and a history of prior medication use may require longer treatment durations to achieve a therapeutic response. Future research should explore the incorporation of diverse treatment approaches to improve treatment outcomes for patients exhibiting negative prognostic indicators.

Project description:BackgroundIt is unknown whether the reflux symptom index (RSI) can replace pH monitoring as a diagnostic tool for laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) in Chinese people. The relationships between reflux parameters and LPR symptoms also require further research.MethodsA total of 216 Chinese patients underwent laryngopharyngeal pH monitoring and filled out an RSI questionnaire. Laryngopharyngeal pH monitoring indicated a diagnosis of LPR for patients with 7 or more episodes of reflux or a reflex area index (RAI) of 6.3 or more. The RSI questionnaire indicated a diagnosis of LPR for patients with RSI scores of 14 or higher.ResultsOf the 216 patients, 85 were diagnosed with LPR as assessed by the RSI, and 72 were diagnosed with LPR through laryngopharyngeal pH monitoring. The Cohen's kappa coefficient comparing LPR diagnosis consistency between RSI score and laryngopharyngeal pH monitoring was 0.133 (P=0.007). This indicated the two diagnostic methods were consistent to a low degree; the total consistency rate was only 59.7% (129/216). The sensitivity of the RSI was 48.6% (35/72), and its specificity was 82.5% (94/114). For convenience, we named the nine symptom groups in the RSI sequentially as P1-P9. P1, P2, P3, P5, P6, and P7 were all correlated with at least one reflux parameter (P<0.05), but P4, P8, and P9 were not correlated with any reflux parameters (P>0.05). A total of 72 patients were diagnosed using pH monitoring, the gold standard for LPR diagnosis. The most common symptoms of LPR were found to be P9, P3, P8, P7, and P2 in these patients. The symptoms that most seriously affected patients were P9, P8, P3, P7, and P2.ConclusionsThe consistency in diagnosis of LPR between the RSI and laryngopharyngeal pH monitoring was poor, meaning the RSI is not a suitable LPR initial screening tool and cannot replace pH monitoring. Additionally, reflux symptoms P4, P8, and P9 were not correlated with any reflux parameters. The most prevalent LPR symptom was P9, followed by P3, P8, P7, and P2. The most severe symptom was also P9, followed by P8, P3, P7, and P2.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:This study was conducted to investigate the current practices of Asian otolaryngologists for laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). METHODS:An online survey about LPR was sent to 2,000 members of Asian otolaryngological societies, and a subgroup analysis was performed between Western and Eastern Asian otolaryngologists. The survey was conducted by the Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Study Group of Young Otolaryngologists of the International Federation of Oto-rhino-laryngological Societies. RESULTS:Among approximately 1,600 Asian otolaryngologists, 146 completed the survey (62 from Western Asian countries, 84 from Eastern Asian countries). A substantial majority (73.3%) of the otolaryngologists considered LPR and gastroesophageal reflux disease to be different diseases. The symptoms thought to be closely related to LPR were coughing after lying down, throat clearing, and globus sensation. The findings thought to be closely related to LPR were posterior commissure granulations and hypertrophy, arytenoids, and laryngeal erythema. The respondents indicated that they mostly diagnosed LPR (70%) after an empirical therapeutic trial of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Although multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) monitoring is a useful tool for diagnosing nonacid or mixed LPR, 78% of Asian otolaryngologists never or very rarely used MII-pH. Eastern Asian otolaryngologists more frequently used once-daily PPIs (64.3% vs. 45.2%, P=0.021), whereas Western Asian otolaryngologists preferred to use twice-daily PPIs (58.1% vs. 39.3%, P=0.025). The poor dietary habits of patients were considered to be the main reason for therapeutic failure by Asian otolaryngologists (53.8%). Only 48.6% of Asian otolaryngologists considered themselves to be adequately knowledgeable and skilled regarding LPR. CONCLUSION:Significant differences exist between Western and Eastern Asian otolaryngologists in the diagnosis and treatment of LPR. Future consensus statements are needed to establish diagnostic criteria and therapeutic regimens.
