摘要
Gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)poses a substantial global health challenge,with prevalence rates exhibiting geographical variation.Despite its widespread recognition,the exact prevalence and associated risk factors remain elusive.This article comprehensively analyzed the global burden of GERD,shedding light on its risk factors,underlying pathophysiological mechanisms,current diagnostic modalities,evolving management strategies tailored to diverse patient profiles,and complex determinants contributing to treatment failures.A deeper comprehension of GERD is achieved by dissecting these intricate facets,paving the way for enhanced clinical management and improved patient outcomes.
