Cardiac Involvement in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux ‎Disease (GERD)

Results: The SDDN (R-R interval) was determined to be 100.1±18.8 on average. Patients with S-T depression made up half of the sample, with an average S-T depression score of 0.92±0.20. Furthermore, around two-thirds of the individuals developed arrhythmia. There was a favorable connection between the occurrence of GERD and cardiac arrhythmia when all correlates were adjusted. The intercept (constant) in the final model after controlling for all correlates was 15.81, and four correlates, positive diabetes history, smokers, and patients with S-T segment depression/arrhythmia, were found as independent predictors of reflux episode number.
