Fukui A, et al. - The association between globus pharyngeus, OSA and GERD was analyzed in this first cross-sectional single-center study. Though there was a controversial association between OSA and globus phayngeus, OSA could be a previously undetected cause of globus pharyngeus. Researchers found that for those globus pharyngeus cases combined with OSA, an additional option of treatment could be offered by improving OSA.
