Predictors and timing for the development of symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease after successful < em > Helicobactor pylori < /em > eradication therapy

CONCLUSIONS: The rate of development of symptomatic GERD after successful H. pylori eradication is low over long-term follow-up and is easily controlled by vonoprazan therapy. However, patients with smoking habits, functional dyspepsia, hiatal hernia, or severe gastric atrophy should be followed carefully after eradication.PMID:34547219 | DOI:10.1080/00365521.2021.1975310
