Factors Associated With Delayed Gastric Emptying in Symptomatic Diabetic and Non-diabetic Patients: A Retrospective Observational Study.

Background Gastroparesis, characterized by delayed gastric emptying without mechanical obstruction, is a significant complication, especially in diabetic individuals. It manifests through symptoms such as abdominal bloating, feelings of fullness, and pain. This study investigates the prevalence of gastroparesis among non-diabetic and diabetic patients, exploring associations with demographic data, hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels, and symptoms.

Transient Small-Bowel Intussusception Unmasking Adult Celiac Disease.
