Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that acid reflux can cause or worsen breathing problems such as asthma and chronic cough?

Yes. A clinical review states that gastroesophageal reflux disease may cause, trigger or exacerbate pulmonary diseases, with the link extensively studied in chronic cough and asthma. Other sources add that reflux is a common cause or co-factor of chronic cough and list cough among reflux symptoms.
