As this finding is often overlooked, we evaluated the prevalence of tHH and its association with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study on suspected GERD patients undergoing HRM and 24-hour pH monitoring (January 2018\u2013October 2024). Patients with manometric HH at baseline, prior foregut surgery, esophageal disorders, end-stage respiratory disease, or on acid suppression as well as suboptimal studies were excluded. We compared GERD prevalence (DeMeester score [DMS] \u226514.72) between patients with tHH (swallow-induced LES\u2013CD separation \u22651\u00a0cm in \u226510% of swallows) and those without tHH. The association strength was evaluated via multivariate logistic regression.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We included 207 patients with type I EGJ morphology (61.4% female; median age: 58\u00a0years): 31 with tHH and 176 without; the overall point prevalence of tHH was 15% (95%CI: 10.4\u201320.6). The tHH group showed a significantly higher prevalence of GERD (67.7% vs. 42%, P\u2009=\u20090.014) and a higher median DMS (24.1 [11.5\u201339] vs. 12.8 [4.9\u201326.8], P\u2009=\u20090.009) than the non-tHH group. The presence of tHH (any size or number of swallows) was an independent strong predictor of GERD (aOR: 3.50 [95%CI: 1.48\u20138.84], P\u2009=\u20090.006).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Around 15% of patients with normal EGJ morphology without manometric HH at baseline will exhibit tHH, which is predictive of abnormal distal esophageal acid exposure.
