Ultrastructural differences between diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis
The ultrastructural changes in diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis are not well studied and it is not known whether there are different defects in the two disorders. As part of the Gastroparesis Clinical Research Consortium, full thickness gastric body biopsies from 20 diabetic and 20 idiopathic gastroparetics were studied by light microscopy. Abnormalities were found in many (83%) but not al...

While the etiology of gastroparesis remains elusive, autonomic dysfunction may play an important role, especially as many patients with gastroparesis also have diabetes.

متن کاملPrevalence of Hidden Gastroparesis in the Community: The Gastroparesis "Iceberg"

Some of them may have undiagnosed gastroparesis. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence of hidden gastroparesis in the community. METHODS The study was conducted in 2 parts: (1) Patients referred for a ...
متن کاملDifferences in intragastric pH in diabetic vs. idiopathic gastroparesis: relation to degree of gastric retention.
Evidence suggests that distinct mechanisms underlie diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis. Differences in gastric acid in gastroparesis of different etiologies and varying degrees of gastric stasis are uninvestigated. We tested the hypotheses that 1) gastric pH profiles show differential alteration in diabetic vs. idiopathic gastroparesis and 2) abnormal pH profiles relate to the severity of ga...
