24-hour esophageal pH monitoring
24-hour esophageal pH monitoring was conducted using an ambulatory system (Ohmega, MMS, Enschede, The Netherlands). This system consists of a portable data logger (MMS Investigation and Diagnostic Software®) and a disposable catheter which contains two pH electrodes (Unisensor, Attikon, Switzerland). Before recording, the pH electrode was calibrated in the special buffer solutions at pH values of 1 and 2.
