Effect of intraduodenal fat on lower oesophageal sphincter function and gastro-oesophageal reflux.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Fatty foods are commonly reported to aggravate gastro-oesophageal reflux symptoms. In this study the hypothesis that fat provokes reflux by stimulating transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxations via small intestinal receptors was investigated. METHODS In 12 healthy volunteers and 11 patients with reflux oesophagitis, oesophageal motility and pH were measured over 30...
متن کاملEffect of atropine on gastro-oesophageal reflux and transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxations in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease.
BACKGROUND Atropine reduces the rate of reflux episodes in normal subjects by inhibition of transient lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS) relaxations. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of atropine on the rate and mechanisms of reflux in patients with reflux disease. METHODS Oesophageal motility and pH were recorded for one hour after a meal in 15 patients with reflux disease. ...
متن کاملEffect of pneumoperitoneum and Trendelenburg position on gastro-oesophageal reflux and lower oesophageal sphincter pressure.
We have measured the effect of pneumoperitoneum and the Trendelenburg position on lower oesophageal sphincter (LOSP) and barrier pressures (BrP) in 11 anaesthetized pigs while measuring the incidence of gastro-oesophageal reflux with a pH electrode. Propofol in combination with sufentanil had no effect on LOSP or BrP. Adoption of the Trendelenburg position with a pneumoperitoneum of 15 mm Hg re...
متن کاملEffect of endoscopic augmentation of the lower oesophageal sphincter (Gatekeeper reflux repair system) on intraoesophageal dynamic characteristics of acid reflux.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Improvements in symptoms following endoscopic procedures for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) are seldom supported by normalisation of acid exposure time at the distal oesophagus. However, the distribution of gastric acid within the proximal oesophagus is a main determinant of symptom generation in GORD patients. In this study, our aim was to assess the effect of end...

abnormal coagulation results, confirmed the diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation. The transfusion of freeze-dried plasma (which has little if any coagulant activity), fibrinogen concentrate, and whole blood that she was given before admission would have had no appreciable effect on the coagulation results obtained and would not have caused the appearance of FDPs or fragmented red...
