Brief summary
The aim of the study is to assess food diversity and dietary patterns in Russian GERD patients
Detailed description
The study of dietary patterns may provide complex vision of an association between consumption of specific foods, or groups of food products and manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease (symptoms: heartburn and acid regurgitation; endoscopic findings - oesophagitis). Only limited data on this matter are published to the moment and they predominantly concerns outcomes of gastroesophageal reflux disease (oesophageal adenocarcinoma or Barrett's oesophagus). Taking into the consideration that earlier studies found significant differences in consumption of nutrients in different world regions, new data on food patterns of dietary patterns in Russian GERD patients could partly fill in the gap of knowledge on this particular matter.
Interventions
PROCEDUREDietary assessment
Dietary assessment is not within standards of care for patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease in Russia. Subjects enrolled to the study are to be interviewed on most common foods consumption in terms of frequency of use and sizes of portions.
