Figure 2 Spontaneous sleep position and nocturnal reflux symptoms.
A: Acid exposure time (% time pH<4) in left lateral decubitus (LLD) vs right lateral decubitus (RLD); B: LLD vs supine; C: Supine vs RLD. LLD: Left lateral decubitus; MD: Mean difference; RLD: Right lateral decubitus; SD: Standard deviation; 95%-CI: 95% confidence interval.
