Elderly men "favored" gastroesophageal reflux disease

Studies have found that the onset of gastroesophageal reflux disease and age, gender, obesity, lifestyle and other factors.

Generally speaking, the incidence of the elderly is higher than the young people, and the proportion of male patients is higher than that of women.

Anti -current symptoms

Gastroscopy should be performed early

The "Consensus on the Expert of Chinese Gastroexylonaidal Anti -flow Diseases in 2020" recommends that all patients with anti -fluid symptoms are first diagnosed with gastroscopy examination. Early gastroscopy tests are conducive to screening tumors and assessing the state of the disease.
