Gastrointestinal Motility, Part 1: Esophageal Transit and Gastric Emptying.
Although not as well standardized as gastric emptying (GE) scintigraphy, esophageal transit scintigraphy, if performed in a comprehensive manner including both quantitative and qualitative analysis of single- and multiple-swallow studies, is clinically useful when expertise in esophageal manometry is not available or not tolerated and when esophageal manometry or barium videofluoroscopy results...
متن کاملMetoclopramide and gastric emptying.
Sir,—In view of increasing interest in the effect of metoclopramide on the gastric emptying rate, may I briefly describe the results of a short trial carried out in the clinical situation as an addition to the information so far available on a drug action which could be of importance to anaesthesia. Under double-blind conditions, 39 patients appearing consecutively for emergency surgery were gi...
متن کاملDietary Nitrate and Gastric Emptying
Nitric oxide produced endogenously in vagal neurons modulates gastrointestinal motor activity as an important non-aderenergic and non-cholinergic neurotransmitter. Other than through endogenous biosynthesis, a high concentration of nitric oxide also occurs by chemical reactions within the stomach in the presence of gastric acid through the entero-salivary re-circulation of dietary nitrate. Alth...
متن کاملModels of gastric emptying.
Some empirical and theoretical models of the emptying behaviour of the stomach are presented. The laws of Laplace, Hooke, and Poisseuille are used to derive a new model of gastric emptying. Published data on humans are used to test the model and evaluate empirical constants. It is shown that for meals with an initial volume of larger than or equal to 300 ml, the reciprocal of the cube root of t...
متن کاملEndoscopic Evaluation of Gastric Emptying and Effect of Mosapride Citrate on Gastric Emptying
PURPOSE Gastric emptying has been evaluated by scintigraphy in spite of its limitations of time consumption, cost, and danger of radioisotope. Endoscopy is a simple technique, however, its validation for gastric emptying and quantification of food has not yet been investigated. The aim of our study was to assess endoscopic gastric emptying compared with scintigraphy and radiopaque markers (ROMs...
