Diabetic Gastroparesis

Abstract: This editorial addresses the importance of diabetic gastroparesis as a marker of poor glycemic control, other vascular complications, and suboptimal therapeutic outcomes. Highlighting the need to prevent and manage gastroparesis, it tries to understand why the condition has not received its due share of attention. Complexities in screening, diagnosis, and management all contribute to the lack of focus on this autonomic neuropathy. The editorial reinforces the need to enhance awareness about diabetic gastropare… Show more

“…Such "therapeutic adventures", akin to a pyromaniac leading a firefighting operation, may harm rather than improve DGP. A combination of acid-suppressing and prokinetic drugs is indicated only if dyspepsia and GP co-exist with each other [20] . Vagal dysfunction has also been postulated to play a role in DGP.…”

“…Diabetic gastroparesis is a syndrome of delayed gastric emptying (GE) in the absence of mechanical obstruction of the upper stomach, antrum body, lower pyloric sphincter, and duodenum. Gastroparesis patients often experience symptoms including severe nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain [2,3]. Emerging evidence strongly indicate that women and female rodents are likely to experience more severe disease manifestations of gastroparesis compared to males [3,4].…”

“…Gastroparesis patients often experience symptoms including severe nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain [2,3]. Emerging evidence strongly indicate that women and female rodents are likely to experience more severe disease manifestations of gastroparesis compared to males [3,4]. In fact, women during their reproductive ages, tend to be disproportionately affected by gastroparesis because their stomach motility is slower to begin with, likely due to elevated levels of sex steroid hormones and nitric oxide [5,6].…”

“…[ 1 , 2 ] The main symptoms of DGP include prolonged postprandial fullness, early satiety, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, weight loss, with or without abdominal pain. [ 3 6 ] Due to delayed gastric emptying, DGP is easy to bring about impaired glycemic control, poor nutrition and hydration status, even worse frequent hospitalizations. [ 1 ]…”
