Pepsin has been proposed as a biomarker of reflux related lung disease. It is the goal of this study to determine 1) if there is a higher reflux burden as measured by pH-MII in patients that are pepsin positive in the lung and 2) the sensitivity of pepsin in predicting pathologic reflux by pH, MII and EGD. We recruited children between the ages of 1–21 with chronic cough or asthma undergoing bronchoscopy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), and multichannel intraluminal impedance (pH-MII) probe placement. The reflux profiles were compared between those patients that were pepsin positive and negative; proportions were compared using Chi square analyses and means were compared using t testing. Only the mean number of non-acid reflux events was associated with pepsin positivity (0.04). The sensitivity and specificity of pepsin in predicting pathologic reflux by pH-MII or EGD was 57% and 65% respectively. The positive predictive value of pepsin in predicting pathologic reflux by pH, MII or EGD was 50% (11/22) and the negative predictive value was 71% (20/28). There was a significantly higher mean LLMI in patients that were pepsin positive compared to pepsin negative patients (81±54 vs. 47±26, p=0.001). Lung pepsin cannot predict pathologic reflux in the esophagus but its correlation with lung inflammation suggests that pepsin may be a important biomarker for reflux-related lung disease.
