Gastroparesis is characterized by symptoms suggesting retention of food in the stomach with
objective evidence of delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction in …

Background The pylorus plays a key role in the control of gastric content outflow. Impairment
of pyloric physiology has been observed in gastroparesis, particularly when associated with …

Background Gastroparesis is a complex, challenging gastrointestinal disorder presenting

uncertain as no systematic study has evaluated the impact of gastroparesis on mortality …

Until recently, gastric motility measurements in humans were mostly limited to
accommodation (using barostat or 3-dimensional imaging studies of gastric volume) and …

Gastric electrical stimulation (GES) is currently used as an alternative treatment for medically
