Delayed gastric emptying occurs in up to 30% of patients with long-standing diabetes and causes significant morbidity. We performed a retrospective cohort study of 341 patients who had participated in a gastric emptying study from 2018 to 2021 in a large teaching hospital. Given the expected prevalence of gastroparesis in people with diabetes, there were fewer studies than anticipated, which could lead to gastroparesis underrecognition.

Obesity significantly influences drug pharmacokinetics (PK), which challenges optimal dosing. This study examines the effects of diet-and-exercise-induced weight loss on key drug-metabolizing enzymes and gastric emptying in patients with obesity, who frequently require medications for comorbidities. Participants followed a structured weight management program promoting weight loss over 3-6 months and were not concomitantly on potential CYP inducers or inhibitors.

The nutritive value of a protein is determined not only by its amino acid composition, but also by its digestibility in the gastrointestinal tract. The interaction between proteins and pepsin in the gastric stage is the first step and plays an important role in protein hydrolysis. Moreover, it affects the amino acid release rates and the allergenicity of the proteins.

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) therapies are increasingly used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Despite growing awareness of potentially increased risk of pulmonary aspiration due to delayed gastric emptying, the risks and benefits of their perioperative use in patients undergoing cardiac procedures remains unexplored. A scoping review was performed to investigate the perioperative GLP-1RA use in patients undergoing cardiac procedures and recommendations.

Background And Aims: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) can cause delayed gastric emptying, raising concern for retained gastric contents (RGCs) during endoscopy and adverse anesthesia events. We aimed to determine associations between GLP1RA and endoscopy and anesthesia outcomes.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study examined patients prescribed GLP1RA who underwent outpatient endoscopy stratified by exposure at the time of endoscopy.
A two-month-old developmentally normal full-term female presented with severe feeding intolerance, progressive weight loss, and persistent fussiness, leading to multiple emergency department visits and eventual hospitalization. Initial evaluations, including laboratory tests and imaging, were unremarkable, prompting a series of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. A multidisciplinary approach, including empiric gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) therapy, was started.
