Abstract
Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between GERD and mental health status, alongside
lifestyle factors and eating patterns among Palestinian adults.
Results In this study, 144 participants with GERD were analyzed. GERD symptom severity was categorized into three
groups: mild (35.4%), moderate (32.0%), and severe (32.6%), according to the GERD-HRQOL. Multiple linear regression
analysis revealed that sleeping problems are the only predictor of GERD symptoms severity (B = 3.785, 95% confidence
interval = 0.712–6.857, p = 0.016).
