Gastrointestinal Safety Assessment of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in the US: A Real-World Adverse Events Analysis from the FAERS Database.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are commonly used to treat obesity and diabetes but are linked to a variety of gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events (AEs). Real-world data on GLP-1 RA-related GI AEs and outcomes are limited. This study assessed GI AEs and adverse outcomes using the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Rome Foundation and international neurogastroenterology and motility societies' consensus on idiopathic gastroparesis.

To establish a consensus on the definition and management of idiopathic gastroparesis, international experts (selected by neurogastroenterology and motility societies and initiated by the Rome Foundation) devised 144 statements using the Delphi method, with at least 80% agreement required. This consensus defined idiopathic gastroparesis as the presence of symptoms associated with delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Nausea and vomiting were identified as cardinal symptoms.

Current opinion: functional dyspepsia.

Purpose Of Review: Functional dyspepsia is a common gastrointestinal disease that is under-recognized and under-diagnosed. It is a complex disorder of gut-brain interaction with no FDA-approved treatment options. The purpose of this review is to highlight updates in the proposed pathophysiology and present new data regarding potential therapies for functional dyspepsia.
