TLESR is the major mechanism of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) but the regulation of TLESR by stimuli in the esophagus is incompletely understood. If stimuli in the esophagus can influence TLESR then such regulation may perpetuate or limit GER. We addressed the hypothesis that acid in the esophagus enhances TLESRs. We evaluated the effect of acid infusion into the distal esophagus on TLESRs evoked by a standard meal in a paired randomized study in healthy subjects. TLESRs were evaluated by using high resolution manometry (HRM). We found that acid in the esophagus enhanced meal-induced TLESRs. Compared to control infusion the number of TLESRs (median[interquartile range]) was increased during 2h following the acid infusion (11[9–14] v.s. 17[12.5–20], p<0.01). The average duration of individual TLESRs was not affected. The time course analysis revealed that a robust increase in TLESRs occurred already in the first hour when the number of TLESRs nearly doubled (6[5.5–7.5] v.s. 11[7.5–12.5], p<0.05). In contrast to the enhancement of TLESRs, the number of swallows was not changed. The acid infusion into the esophagus increases the number of meal-induced TLESRs in healthy subjects. Our results provide evidence for the concept that the stimuli in the esophagus can influence TLESRs. The regulation of TLESR by stimuli in the esophagus may contribute to pathogenesis of GER in some patients.
