Does esomeprazole reduce gastroesophageal reflux after beer consumption in healthy volunteers?
Esomeprazole significantly reduces gastroesophageal reflux after beer consumption in healthy volunteers. Gastric emptying of beer is not prolonged after treatment with esomeprazole, although compared with placebo, this PPI induced significantly higher plasma gastrin concentrations. Moderate alcohol consumption does not worsen gastroesophageal reflux when a PPI is administered.
Hearing threshold changes are often seen in repeated ABR measurements. Therefore multiple measurements are necessary when ABR yields abnormal. Hearing threshold changes should be taken into account for hearing aid provision.
