Table 4 The manometry and impedance evaluation based on pathologic gastroesophageal reflux (mean ± SD)

	Swallow	Pathologicreflux (+)	Pathologicreflux (-)	P
Manometry
LES pressure (mmHg)	All	21.9 ± 9.5	28.8 ± 9.5	NS
Distal esophageal amplitude (mmHg)	Liquid	113.6 ± 60.6	133.8 ± 78.5^a	< 0.05
Distal esophageal amplitude (mmHg)	Viscous	113.2 ± 69.7	134.1 ± 79.1^a	< 0.05
Impedance
TBTT (s)	Liquid	6.7 ± 1.5	6.6 ± 1.5	NS
	Viscous	7.0 ± 1.0	7.1 ± 1.6	NS
Bolus transit rate (%)	Liquid	91 ± 14	86 ± 16	NS
	Viscous	73 ± 21	70 ± 30	NS

^aP < 0.05 vs pathologic positive reflux.
