Normal esophagus readings in healthy Indian adults

This trial tests a new way to treat GERD (chronic acid reflux) using a tiny camera and a device that delivers a gentle heat treatment (argon plasma coagulation) to the area where the stomach meets the esophagus. It's compared to a 'sham' procedure (you won't know which you get) to see if it stops acid from backing up better than medicine alone.
This study enrolls healthy adults to build a registry and biobank (collection of samples). It tests whether collecting information and biological samples from people without symptoms can help researchers understand normal stomach and esophagus function.
This study looks at how following specific diet and behavior changes affects symptoms of acid reflux (heartburn/regurgitation) in everyday life. It may help you understand what lifestyle steps improve reflux and how symptoms change over time.
This study tracks patients with reflux, swallowing problems, or other esophageal symptoms to understand how the esophagus moves. It may help if you have heartburn, regurgitation, or related issues like cough or chest pain.
This study compares two ways of placing a reflux testing probe to find which works better for women and people with a lower body mass index. You may be able to join if you have typical heartburn or regurgitation symptoms and have not had stomach or esophagus surgery.
This trial is testing a new way to diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in people who have symptoms like heartburn, reflux, or bloating. It aims to improve diagnosis so you can get the right treatment.
