Description
Alvaro F Montalvo-Peralta and co-authors surveyed medical students in Lima, Peru, in 2026 about reflux and sleep. Poor sleep is rife in medical training. Reflux is a plausible cause that can be treated, yet earlier work had handled the link loosely.
One hundred seventy-one students completed standard sleep and reflux scales. Adjusted modelling then counted other factors that shape sleep. Reflux burden and poor sleep were both strikingly common. Students with reflux burden had a notably higher rate of poor sleep than those without. The design cannot prove which came first. Still, it flags reflux screening as a cheap step in student health.
