The Prevalence of and Risk Factors for Barretts Esophagus in a Korean Population: A Nationwide Multicenter Prospective Study
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 10/21/09
Park JJ et al. – The prevalence of BE in Korean patients presenting for a routine health check–up was 0.84%, lower than reported in Western countries. Among the subjects with BE 77.7% did not have endoscopic erosions and there were no reflux symptoms in 39.9%. These results suggest that regular endoscopic screening with a high index of suspicion is necessary for the diagnosis of BE.
