“…In a large study exploring 20,659 patients who underwent routine gastroscopy, 3,815 patients with dyspepsia had a major endoscopic finding in 21% and a cancer prevalence of 2% [20]. This was the same prevalence as other cohort studies of endoscopy in general practice [21, 22]. Using univariate and multivariate logistic regression, age and the presence of “alarm” symptoms were found to be poor predictors of the presence of major endoscopic findings [23].…”

A significant proportion (20.8%) of patients presenting with operable esophageal cancer was younger than aged 55 years. Almost two-thirds of those presenting younger than aged 55 years had T3 stage tumors, which was significantly different than those older than aged 55 years. Despite more advanced tumor stage at presentation, the prognosis of esophageal cancer for patients younger than aged 55 years is similar to those older than aged 55 years (log-rank = 0.99).

“…Hence, although patients over the age of 45 years are often referred for endoscopy (because of the higher risk of carcinoma6 7 8 9), many patients presenting with dyspepsia in general practice are not investigated. A major drawback to the current management of dyspepsia is the cost of empirical treatment with antisecretory medication, which is now one of the most expensive cost categories in NHS drug expenditure.…”

NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme was set up in 1993 to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS.Initially, six HTA panels (pharmaceuticals, acute sector, primary and community care, diagnostics and imaging, population screening, methodology) helped to set the research priorities for the HTA Programme.
