GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE, CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE, AND BRONCHIAL ASTHMA: CURRENT ISSUES OF COMORBIDITY

Аннотация

This article examines the comorbidity of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and bronchial asthma. It explores the pathogenic mechanisms, including acid reflux and aspiration, which can worsen respiratory symptoms and increase the frequency of exacerbations. The article emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment of GERD to improve asthma and COPD management. The need for personalized treatment approaches is highlighted, along with future directions for research on the role of non-acid reflux in respiratory conditions.
