We have very recently demonstrated the low acidity of gastric juice and the high susceptibility to the development of gastric ulceration in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats not expressing CCK-A receptors. In the present study, gastric emptying in this strain was examined and compared with control Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka (LETO) rats. Gastric emptying was evaluated by the phenol red method. Gastric emptying 30 and 60 min after a liquid meal in OLETF rats was significantly delayed compared to that in control LETO rats. Intraperitoneal injection of CCK-8 at a dose of 5 microg/kg significantly inhibited gastric emptying in control LETO rats, whereas the same dose of CCK-8 failed to inhibit gastric emptying in OLETF rats. These results suggest for the first time that gastric emptying was suppressed in OLETF rats. We also confirmed with this mutant that CCK delays gastric emptying through the CCK-A receptors.

Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have become increasingly prevalent and have the potential to delay gastric emptying. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) released guidance regarding the perioperative management of patients receiving GLP-1 RAs, but it is unclear the extent to which hospitals in the U.S.

The last two decades have provided far more options f both patients and their physicians in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. While dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have been approved for nearly two decades, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) are relatively new. Of interest to perioperative physicians, these drugs present specific perioperative concerns, prompting many societies to issue guidelines.

: Despite standard preoperative fasting guidelines, residual gastric content can persist in some patients, increasing the risk of aspiration pneumonitis. Multiple patient-specific factors may predict gastric content retention, but their predictive accuracy is limited. We hypothesized that ultrasound would more reliably identify residual gastric content compared to a comprehensive questionnaire and aimed to determine the most practical approach for risk assessment in elective surgical patients.

: Acute gastric injury is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder characterized by inflammation and damage to the stomach lining. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential effects of broccoli stem extract (BSE) against acute gastritis in a rat model. : The antioxidant properties of BSE were evaluated through DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity assays and total polyphenol content analysis.

(1) Background: The modified Whipple procedure, or pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, is a complex surgical intervention used to treat pancreatic head tumors. While preserving digestive function, it is associated with significant perioperative risks. This study explores the clinical, immunological, and microbiome-related factors influencing postoperative complications, focusing on the interplay between patient comorbidities, systemic inflammation, and gut dysbiosis.
