    (ELSEVIER, 2023-09) Özenoğlu, Aliye; Anul, Nejla; Özçelikçi, Büşra
    Abstract Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common health problems of the upper gastrointestinal system, in which complex biopsychosocial factors play a role in its development. In addition to bad nutritional habits, it is known that psychological stress has aggravating effects on gastroesophageal reflux symptoms. Presenting the current evidence obtained from studies on this subject can be a guide for both clinicians and patients. The role of various factors such as poor eating habits, obesity, stress, anxiety, sedentary lifestyle, sleep disorders, smoking and alcohol in the etiology of GERD is emphasized. Pharmacotherapy is considered first-line therapy for patients with GERD, but lifestyle modification, including dietary changes, is an important element in supporting the treatment of the disease. However, although lifestyle change offers a more effective, lower cost and less side-effect treatment, it is often seen to be insufficient in practice. The results of the studies show that reflux is closely related to mental state and eating habits affect both reflux and mood. In the management of GERD, the evaluation of biopsychosocial factors together and the application of a multidisciplinary approach can make a significant contribution to increase the success of the treatment and quality of life.
