Age at Onset of GERD Symptoms Predicts Risk of Barrett’s Esophagus
2013
OBJECTIVES
Symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are the primary risk factor for Barrett’s esophagus (BE). However, the significance of age at symptom onset is unknown. We examined the effects of multiple dimensions of GERD exposure on BE risk and whether these associations are modified by other risk factors for BE.
