The Chicago Classification 4.0 (CCv4.0) protocol requires patients to perform a supine\u2010upright transition (SUT), increasing intra\u2010abdominal pressure (IAP). The aim of this study was to compare the SUT and SLR maneuvers for efficacy in increasing IAP and in predicting pathologic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Consecutive adult patients with persistent GERD symptoms undergoing HRM and pH\u2010impedance were prospectively enrolled. After completion of the supine swallows of the CCv4.0 protocol, the SLR maneuver was performed and the patients were asked to get up to the upright position (SUT). IAP and intra\u2010esophageal pressure (IEP) were recorded at baseline and during the maneuvers. GERD was defined as acid exposure time &gt;\u20096% according to Lyon 2.0.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among the 110 patients included (age 55\u2009years; 59.1% female, BMI 25.4\u2009kg\/m\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) SUT was effective in 94 and SLR in 85.
