There is a high incidence of Campylobacter pylori in the gastric mucosa of patients with duodenal ulcer, gastric ulcer, and nonulcer dyspepsia. Factors that lead to development of this infection are unknown. We hypothesized that delayed solid-phase gastric emptying, a condition characterized by
Background: Neurological autoimmune disorders (NAD) are caused by autoimmune inflammation triggered by specific antibody subtypes. NAD may disturb the gut-brain axis at several levels including brain, spinal cord, peripheral, or enteric
Gastric emptying is impaired in patients with gastroparesis whereas it is either unchanged or accelerated in obese individuals. The goal of the current study was to identify changes in gene expression in the stomach muscularis that may be contributing to altered gastric motility in Considerable effort has recently been directed at developing multifunctional opioid drugs to minimize the unwanted side-effects of opioid analgesics. We developed a novel multifunctional agonist named DN-9. Here, we studied the analgesic profiles and related side-effects of peripheral Factors underlying gastroparesis are not well defined.We hypothesized that multiple systems may be involved in patients with gastroparesis symptoms and performed a comparative physiologic study.We studied 43 consecutive eligible BACKGROUND
The histopathology of the gastric mucosa in patients with gastroparesis, a condition characterized by gastric retention without obstruction, has not been described.
OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that reactive gastropathy is more common in patients with gastroparesis than in subjects
Understanding of gastroparesis is evolving, in part because of systematic studies on the pathology, pathophysiology, and outcomes. It is clear that simply accelerating gastric emptying may not effectively control symptoms in this syndrome and more creative approaches are required that address
OBJECTIVE
The pathophysiology of some GI neuromuscular diseases remains largely unknown. This is in part due to the inability to obtain ample deep gastric wall biopsies that include the intermuscular layer of the muscularis propria (MP) to evaluate the enteric nervous system, interstitial cells of
Glucocorticoids (GCs) constitute a highly pleiotropic class of drugs predominantly employed in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. In our search for new mechanisms of action, we identified a hitherto unknown effect of GCs in the gastrointestinal tract. We found that oral administration of
BACKGROUND
Few studies have described patients with foregut dysmotility in inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of this case series was to evaluate clinical characteristics of 5 patients with inflammatory bowel disease and symptoms and signs of upper gut dysmotility.
METHODS
We describe a series of
Crohn's Disease (CD) results from chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract involving TNF-α release. Gastrointestinal electrical stimulation (GES), a form of neuromodulation used to treat upper GI motility symptoms (UGI Sx), exerts an anti-inflammatory effect via TNF-α BACKGROUND
Diabetes mellitus is associated with many kinds of complications. Recent studies have shown that oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions have critical roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic gastroparesis. Curcumin is known to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In the
Patients with gastroparesis often present a challenge to the treating physician. Postprandial symptoms with nausea and vomiting may not only lead to nutritional and metabolic consequences, but also cause significant disruptions to social activities that often center around food. While the definition
OBJECTIVE
This review summarizes recent progress in the epidemiology, pathophysiology and treatment of functional dyspepsia and gastroparesis.
RESULTS
The definition of functional dyspepsia and its subgroups has been revised in the recent Rome IV consensus. In gastroparesis, the symptom pattern and
