The effect of metoclopramide on gastric emptying in a patient with an antiperistaltic jejunal loop interposed between the stomach and duodenum because of postvagotomy dumping symdrome is studied. Solid particle emptying by 99mTc-labeled chicken liver revealed profound gastric stasis with resultant
There is increased awareness about risks and benefits of using domperidone to treat gastroparesis.
To describe the outcome of treating patients with refractory gastroparesis symptoms with domperidone.
Domperidone 10 mg QID or TID was prescribed to patients with refractory gastroparesis symptoms;
The aim of this study was to evaluate results of completion gastrectomy for severe postgastrectomy gastric stasis. A total of 51 women and 11 men underwent completion gastrectomy for gastric stasis between 1985 and 1996; follow-up was complete in 98% at 5.4 +/- 5 years. All patients had modified
Gain-of-function mutations in the SCN10A gene (encoding the Nav1.8 voltage gated sodium channel) have been reported in a small number of patients. All presented with predominantly painful sensory neuropathy, congruent with the expression of Nav1.8 in nociceptive sensory neurons of the dorsal root
Gastroparesis, broadly defined as disordered gastric emptying, is a commonly encountered clinical problem. Nutrition problems frequently occur in gastroparesis, primarily due to inadequate oral intake but also due to losses from vomiting or diarrhea. Treatment of gastroparesis may include dietary
Diabetic neuropathy is a common chronic complication of diabetes and cause of significant morbidity and mortality, because it may involve the autonomous and peripheral nervous systems. Autonomic diabetic neuropathy is a challenging chronic complication of long-standing diabetes manifested with
Alterations in both gastric emptying (GE) and small bowel motility have been reported in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); the relationship, however, between these different measures of upper gut motor function in IBS has not been assessed. The aims of this study were therefore: (1) to compare the
BACKGROUND
The most common symptoms of chronic pancreatitis are abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss. The abdominal pain has no consistent pattern, and nausea and vomiting commonly occur simultaneously. Gastroparesis may produce similar symptoms. These similar symptoms may cause diagnostic
BACKGROUND
Wireless motility capsule (WMC) findings are incompletely defined in suspected gastroparesis. We aimed to characterize regional WMC transit and contractility in relation to scintigraphy, etiology, and symptoms in patients undergoing gastric emptying testing.
METHODS
A total of 209
The gastrointestinal microflora and gastric physiology of piglets weaned at 2 days was compared with that of piglets allowed to continue sucking the sow. Although there was a significantly higher count of Escherichia coli in the stomach, duodenum, and jejunum of the early-weaned compared with
OBJECTIVE
Autonomic dysfunction is associated with a wide variety of gastrointestinal symptoms. It is unclear how many patients with autonomic dysfunction have slow or rapid gastric emptying. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of rapid and delayed solid phase gastric emptying in
Seventy patients with peptic ulcers (55 duodenal and 15 gastric) were treated by truncal vagotomy and doulbe pyloroplasty during the past four years. Clinical and experimental data as presented lead us to believe that transecting the pylorus twice produces an incontinent pyloric sphincter and a
In Leeds and Copenhagen 271 patients were treated electively for duodenal ulcer by parietal cell vagotomy without drainage between 1969 and 1972 inclusive, with no operative deaths. 108 patients have been followed up 2-4 years since operation. Gastric stasis necessitating re-operation occurred in
