Thesuccessfulhealingofesophagitis,anelusivetherapeutictargetamere25yearsago,hasbeeneclipsedbynewconsiderations,withemphasisnowbeingfocusedonsymptomresolution,inparticular,heartburn.
Moreover,patientswithheartburnareahetero-geneousgroup,includingsubpopulationswithdifferentmechanismsresponsiblefortheirsymptoms.
PatientswithGERDsymptomssuchasheartburneitherhaveincreasedesophagealacidexposurewith(erosiveesophagitis;EE)orwithout(non-erosiverefluxdisease;NERD)erosions,orwithnormalacidexposurewithacidhypersensitivity(func-tionalheartburn;FH)[1].
AlthoughEEisreadilydiagnosed,thedistinctionbetweenpatientsdiagnosedwithNERDandthosewithFHcanbedifficultdespitebeinghighlyclinicallyrelevant:thefirstgroupmostlybenefitsfrompharmacologi-calsuppressionofacidsecretionorfromsurgicalanti-refluxtherapy,whereasinthesecondgroup,prolongedtherapywithprotonpumpinhibitors(PPI)andanti-refluxsurgeryareunnecessaryandpossiblyharmfulandshouldthusbeassiduouslyavoided.
Untilnow,themissingpieceinthispuzzlehasbeentheexistenceofabiomarkerusefultodif-ferentiatepatientswithNERDfromFHandtopredicttheresponsetoPPItherapy.
PatientswithNERDhaveforlongbeenconsideredpoorresponderstoPPIs.
Nonetheless,ameta-analysisemphasizedthatthepreviouslyreportedlowresponserateinNERDwaslikelytheresultofbiasedstudiesthatincludedpatientswithnon-GERD-relateduppergastrointestinalsymptoms[2].
Twenty-four-houresophagealpHmonitoringisusefultodefinetheetiologyofheartburnsymptoms.
Recently,theadditionofimpedance,whichrecognizesfluidreflux,alongwithpHmonitoringhasenhancedtheabilitytodetectpatientswithFH[3].
Nevertheless,thesetechniqueshavesomeintrinsiclimitations:(a)esophagealacidexposuretimepresentsaphysiologicalday-to-dayvariabilityduetovariationsofdietaryhabitsandphysicalactivity;(b)symptomsreportedduringsingle-daymonitoringareoftenabsentorfew,decreasingthereliabilityofrefluxassocia-tionindexes;and(c)patientsareoftenuncomfortableandadoptamoresedentarylifestyle,reducingthefrequencyofreflux-provokingactivities.
TheselimitationscouldbeparticularlyrelevanttopatientswithNERDwhofrequentlyhaveweaklyacidic(pH4–7)refluxduring24-hpHmoni-toring,asopposedtopatientswithEEwhogenerallyhavestronglyacidic(pH<4)reflux[4].
Ultrastructuralstudies[5–7]havedemonstratedawiden-ingoftheintercellularjunctionsbetweencellsintheesopha-gealepitheliuminpatientswithNERD,withlimiteddatasupportingcorrespondingincreasedparacellularpermeabil-itytosolutes,whichwashypothesizedtobeduetoaciddam-agetotheintercellularjunctionalcomplex.

Still,despitebeingapilotstudy,therearelimitations,asreportedbytheauthors.
Inparticular,thesamplesizewassmall,onlypre-treatmentCTFconcentrationswereobtained,andacorrelationofesophagealacidexposure(asdeterminedby24-hpHmonitoringonorofftherapy)withNTFconcen-trationswasnotused.

ForthosewithheartburnnotresponsivetoempiricPPIs,particularlyatadouble/highdose,normalNTFcon-centrationswouldsupporttheconclusionthatthesymptomswereunrelatedtoacid-refluxdisease,addingconfidencethatPPItherapycouldbesafelydiscontinued.
Finally,anobjectiveserumbiomarkerthatdifferentiatesNERDfromFH,andassessestheresponsetoPPItreatmentwithhighsensitivity,couldbecomeinthefutureandinex-pensive,predictive,andrelativelysafemeanstodifferentiateNERDfromFH.
