Title: The Reflux Symptom Score has good screening value for Laryngopharyngeal Reflux
Version: 1 Date: 05 Jul 2024
Reviewer's report:
Exciting work. The greatest value of this work is in the repeated detection of pepsin during the
day.
I would like to see more comments on this in the discussion to explain why the most positive
tests are in the morning and early evening. Should this mean patients should be advised to collect
saliva only in the morning?
Limiting factors are well explained, the work would certainly have much more value if a
questionnaire about eating habits was also used in the research, so we would have much more
data to analyze and comment on.
