AB  - In our country, it is reported that reflux esophagitis(GERD) has been increasing 
      like in European countries. One of the reasons for this tendency may be the 
      arrival of the aging society. Another explanation is the lowering of Helicobacter 
      pylori infection rate in the younger generation. Though the Los Angeles 
      classification is mainly used at present, the Savary-Miller classification is 
      also clinically important. For the initial treatment of GERD, proton pump 
      inhibitor(PPI) has been mainly used, while there is large problems in the ideal 
      way of maintenance therapy. The guideline on the GERD treatment is also being 
      considered, based on EBM.
