简要总结
We would like to evaluate the changes in nerve innervation and TRPV1 receptor expression along with microscopic changes associated with heart burn and abdominal pain
详细描述
Approximately 5% of children between 10-17 years of age report symptoms of heart burn, epigastric pain or regurgitation. This study will evaluate the changes in nerve innervation and TRPV1 receptor expression in children having upper endoscopy for evaluation of heart burn and abdominal pain.
