Objective: To compare sugammadex with neostigmine / atropine combination for reversal of neuromuscular blocker agents in terms of postoperative gastrointestinal motility in patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Study Design: Experimental study. Place and Duration of the Study: University of Health Sciences, Izmir Bozyaka Training and Research Hospital, Izmir, Turkiye, between December 2020 and June 2021.
Methodology: Seventy-two patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were included. At the end of the surgery, patients were antagonised for neuromuscular blockers either by atropine / neostigmine or sugammadex by an anaesthesiologist who was not involved in the study. Total anaesthesia time, pneumoperitoneum time, surgery time, number of postoperative opioid dose requirements and total opioid dose administered, number of medication requirements for postoperative nausea and vomiting, postoperative hospital stay, and first gas and stool output time of all the cases were evaluated by the researcher who was unaware of the medicines used for antagonisation.
Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of their effects on postoperative gastrointestinal motility (first gas and stool output time), duration of anaesthesia, duration of surgery, duration of pneumoperitoneum, the number of postoperative opioid dose requirements, the number of drug requirements for postoperative nausea / vomiting, and the postoperative hospitalisation duration of the cases.
Conclusion: Effects of reversal agents on postoperative gastrointestinal motility are still debated. Studies on this subject in the literature are both limited in number and have been conducted with different medicine combinations in a wide variety of patient populations. The authors thought that further prospective randomised studies are needed to interpret this effect more clearly.
Key Words: Sugammadex, Neostigmine / atropine, Gastrointestinal motility, Laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objectives: Gastrointestinal (GI) disturbance is a frequent complication in patients with thoracolumbar vertebral fracture (TVF). Transcutaneous electrical acustimulation (TEA) has been reported to effectively accelerate postoperative GI function recovery after abdominal surgery. This study aimed to investigate the effects of TEA on postoperative recovery and the associated mechanisms.

Postoperative ileus, the temporary cessation of gastrointestinal motility leading to accumulation of fluid and gas in the bowel, is a common complication following posterior spine fusion (PSF) in patients with neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS). Abdominal radiographs (KUBs) are often ordered to differentiate between ileus and mechanical obstruction but expose patients to radiation, add cost, and may lead to unnecessary work up. The aim of this study was to determine how often KUBs led to a change in treatment after PSF in patients with NMS.

Background: The relationship between gut microbiota composition, lifestyles, and colonic transit time (CTT) remains poorly understood. This study investigated associations among gut microbiota profiles, diet, lifestyles, and CTT in individuals with subjective constipation.
Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of data from our randomized clinical trial, examining gut microbiota composition, CTT, and dietary intake in baseline and final assessments of 94 participants with subjective constipation.

This study aimed to compare the inhibitory effect of flunixin meglumine and meloxicam on the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract in male cattle. Tissue samples, including the abomasum, ileum, proximal loop and centripetal gyri of the ascending colon, were collected from routinely slaughtered male cattle. These samples were sectioned into strips and mounted in an isolated tissue bath system.

Cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug, is known for causing gastrointestinal disorders and neuropathic pain, but its impact on visceral sensitivity is unclear. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) has been shown to improve gastrointestinal dysmotility and neuropathic pain induced by cisplatin in rats. This study aimed to determine if repeated cisplatin treatment alters visceral sensitivity and whether dietary MSG can prevent these changes.
