Pharmacokinetic modeling of gastric emptying and small intestinal transit time in dogs using paracetamol and sulfasalazine as markers
In this thesis, two pharmacokinetic models are evaluated with respect to their capacity to quantify gastric emptying and small intestinal transit in dogs. The experiments are based on the double marker technique, which uses two drug substances (paracetamol and sulfasalazine) that are absorbed in the duodenum and the colon, respectively. A standard model is compared to a more sophisticated trans...
متن کاملGastric emptying and intestinal transit of liquid and solid markers in rats with chronic uremia.
Gastrointestinal motor abnormalities may account for dyspeptic symptoms of chronic uremia patients. However, the data on gastric emptying are conflicting in human studies. We, therefore, assessed gastric emptying and gastrointestinal transit in a rat uremia model. Chronic uremia was induced by five-sixths nephrectomy in the rats. After 20-hour fasting, the rats were loaded with 70 glass beads a...
متن کاملGastric transit and small intestinal transit time and motility assessed by a magnet tracking system
BACKGROUND Tracking an ingested magnet by the Magnet Tracking System MTS-1 (Motilis, Lausanne, Switzerland) is an easy and minimally-invasive method to assess gastrointestinal transit. The aim was to test the validity of MTS-1 for assessment of gastric transit time and small intestinal transit time, and to illustrate transit patterns detected by the system. METHODS A small magnet was ingested...
متن کاملValidation of Ultrasonography for Assessment of Gastric Emptying Time in Healthy Cats by Radionuclide Scintigraphy
BACKGROUND The prevalence of gastric emptying (GE) disorders in cats is unknown due to lack of clinically applicable diagnostic tests. OBJECTIVES The principal aim of this study was to assess correlation between scintigraphic and ultrasonographic measurements of GE time (GET) in healthy cats. Additionally, variability of ultrasonographic GET, and correlation between scintigraphy and ultrasono...
متن کاملUse of wireless motility capsule to determine gastric emptying and small intestinal transit times in critically ill trauma patients.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to use a novel wireless motility capsule to compare gastric emptying and small bowel transit times in critically ill trauma patients and healthy volunteers. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated gastric emptying, small bowel transit time, and total intestinal transit time in 8 critically ill trauma patients. These data were compared with those obtained in 87 ...
