Abstract
Objectives
In the general population, late-night dinner is positively associated with gastroesophageal
reflux disease (GERD). No evidence exists regarding the relationship between eating
behaviours and GERD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, though the prevalence
of GERD in patients with type 2 diabetes is higher than in those without diabetes.
We conducted this study to investigate the association between eating behaviours and
GERD in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods
The study's subjects were 817 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes. GERD was defined
as being present when a subject had a Quality of Life and Utility Evaluation Survey
Technology (QUEST) score of 4 or higher. The assessment of eating behaviour was performed
by self-administered questionnaire. Subjects were considered positive for late-night
dinner if they answered yes to the question “Do you eat dinner within 2 hours before
bedtime at least 3 times per week?
Results
The prevalence values of GERD, skipping breakfast, bedtime snacking, late-night dinner
and fast eating were 32.0%, 13.7%, 27.1%, 28.8%, and 44.4%, respectively. Late-night
dinner was independently positively associated with GERD in patients with type 2 diabetes;
the adjusted odds ratio was 1.46 (95% CI 1.03 to 2.05). No relationships were found
between skipping breakfast, bedtime snacking or fast eating and GERD.
Conclusions
Late-night dinner may be positively associated with GERD in Japanese patients with
type 2 diabetes.
Résumé
Objectifs
Dans la population générale, le souper tardif est associé de manière positive au reflux
gastro-œsophagien (RGO) pathologique. Aucune donnée probante n'existe au sujet de
la relation entre les comportements alimentaires et le RGO chez les patients atteints
du diabète sucré de type 2, pourtant la prévalence du RGO chez les patients atteints
du diabète de type 2 est plus élevée que chez les patientsnon diabétiques. Nous avons
mené la présente étude pour examiner l'association entre les comportements alimentaires
et le RGO chez des patients japonais atteints du diabète de type 2.
Méthodes
Les 817 sujets de l'étude étaient des patients japonais atteints du diabète de type
2. Le RGO était défini comme étant présent lorsqu'un sujet obtenait un score de 4
ou plus au Quality of Life and Utility Evaluation Survey Technology (QUEST). Le questionnaireauto-administré
a permis d'évaluer les comportements alimentaires. On considérait les sujets comme
étant positifs en ce qui concerne le souper tardif s'ils répondaient par oui à la
question « Prenez-vous votre souper 2 heures avant d'aller au lit 3 fois par semaine?
».
Résultats
Les valeurs de la prévalence du RGO, du déjeuner escamoté, de la collation au coucher,
du souper tardif et de l'alimentation rapide étaient respectivement de 32.0%, 13.7%,
27.1%, 28.8%, et 44.4%. Le souper tardif était indépendamment associé de manière positive
au RGO chez les patients atteints du diabète de type 2; le ratio d'incidence approché
était de 1,46 (IC à 95 %, de 1,03 à 2,05). Aucune relation n'était observée entre
le déjeuner escamoté, la collation au coucher ou l'alimentation rapide, et le RGO.
Conclusions
Le souper tardif peut être associé de manière positive au RGO chez les patients japonais
atteints du diabète de type 2.
