A Retrospective Analysis of Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Based on a Prospective Clinical Dataset

This retrospective, observational cohort study aimed to establish a comprehensive research cohort utilizing a large-scale prospective clinical registry. The primary objectives were to characterize the real-world demographic profiles, clinical features, psychological characteristics, and treatment patterns of Chinese patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), as well as to evaluate post-treatment improvements in both GERD symptoms and psychological well-being. The study retrospectively enrolled approximately 5,000 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of GERD, with data derived from the prospective registry of the National Clinical Research Center for Digestive Diseases. Investigators systematically extracted data on baseline demographics, clinical presentations, objective diagnostic findings, preoperative psychological status, surgical complications, and longitudinal follow-up outcomes for all eligible patients. Ultimately, this study sought to provide high-quality, China-specific evidence to inform the precise phenotyping of GERD and to guide standardized, individualized clinical decision-making.
