Objective:To investigate reflux symptom index (RSI), reflux finding score (RFS), esophageal motility and to correlate them with laryngopharyngeal reflux in patients with vocal cord polyps, providing guidance for clinical study.Methods:A total of 100 patients with vocal cord polyps who received treatment from January 2018 to January 2020 in Jiangshan People's Hospital were included in the observation group. A total of 100 healthy controls who concurrently received physical examination were included in the control group. RSI and RFS were used to preliminarily evaluate laryngopharyngeal reflux. The characteristics of esophageal motility and the pressure of upper and lower sphincter were monitored. The correlation between RSI, RFS, esophageal motility and laryngopharyngeal reflux was analyzed.Results:In the observation group, 35.00% of patients had RSI > 13 points, and 30.00% of patients had RFS > 7 points. The RSI and RFS in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group [RSI: (24.17 ± 1.14) points vs. (7.28 ± 12) points; RFS: (17.59 ± 1.52) points vs. (4.28 ± 0.21) points, t = 147.344, 86.742, both P < 0.05)]. The time to upper sphincter relaxation recovery and the duration of upper sphincter relaxation in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group ( t = 5.373, 4.660, both P < 0.05). The intra pellet pressure in the observation group was significantly greater than that in the control group ( t = 2.186, P < 0.05). The length of the lower sphincter in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group ( t = 4.977, P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that RSI was positively correlated with foreign body sensation in the throat, continuous throat clearing, nasal reflux or phlegm ( r = 0.640, 0.649, 0.507, all P < 0.05). RFS was positively correlated with disappearance of laryngeal chamber, posterior commissure hyperplasia and vocal cord edema ( r = 0.742, 0.516, 0.547, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:RSI and RFS of patients with vocal cord polyps are positively correlated with laryngopharyngeal reflux. Some patients with vocal cord polyps have dysfunction and abnormal structure of upper and lower esophageal sphincter as well as laryngopharyngeal reflux. Therefore, reflux symptom index, reflux finding score and esophageal motility can be used together to diagnose laryngopharyngeal reflux and increase the diagnosis accuracy
