treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic condition caused by the reflux of stomach contents into the oesophagus.<br \/>\nThis reflux is usually associated with a dysfunction of the lower esophageal sphincter.<br \/>\nStudies on manipulative therapy indicate that it plays an important role in the co-adjuvant treatment of reflux as well as in the prevention and treatment of reflux.<br \/>\n<strong>Objective<\/strong> To conduct a systematic review of the literature on the treatment of GERD with manual techniques with the aim of evaluating the methodological quality of the studies, summarizing the results, analyzing the effectiveness of the intervention and deriving possible recommendations for clinical practice and\/or identifying the need for further research.<br \/>\n<strong>Methodology<\/strong> The study is a systematic review with searches in the databases Bireme, Lilacs, PubMed, PEDro, Scielo, Cochrane and Google Scholar in English and Portuguese.<br \/>\nThe manual therapy techniques used in the selected studies and the reports on the effectiveness of these interventions were extracted.<br \/>\nThe PRISMA reporting guidelines were used to structure the review and the PEDro scale was used to assess the methodological quality of the included studies. <strong>Results<\/strong> A total of 6 clinical trials with a total of 218 participants were found and analyzed using objective and subjective criteria.<br \/>\nIn terms of methodological quality, 3 studies achieved a score of over 7, i.e. high quality, while one study achieved a score of 4 and 2 studies a score of 3, indicating low internal validity.<br \/>\nThe observed results show positive clinical effects of visceral manual therapy for gastroesophageal reflux in adults.<br \/>\nConclusion The research results suggest that the use of manual techniques in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux shows positive results in studies with high methodological quality.<br \/>\nHowever, due to the small number and other studies with low scores on the PEDro scale, caution is required and further experimental studies are needed.            <span style=\"color: #808080;\">Brendon dos Santos C, Artioli PD, Flor Bertolini GR.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color:
