PEPTEST was performed once before surgery, before discharge, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. The incidence of pathological reflux at 5 time points before and after surgery was observed and compared (that is, both T-line and C-line were shown). The trend of pepsin content in saliva before and after operation; The relationship between pathological reflux and surgical factors; The relationship between pathological reflux and life habits after operation; Relationship between pathological regurgitation and demographic characteristics.
