This study aims to understand the relationship between metabolic syndrome—a cluster of conditions like obesity and high blood pressure—and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), commonly known as acid reflux. Researchers will observe 50 adult patients with metabolic syndrome to see which specific components are most strongly linked to the severity of their reflux symptoms. The goal is to gather knowledge to better understand why these conditions often occur together.
