Abstract
Gastrectomy and esophagectomy are the most performed surgeries in the treatment of both esophageal and gastric cancers. The type of esophagectomy depends on the type of malignancy, site of the tumor, criteria of resection, and field of resection. The three standard approaches to esophagectomy are the transhiatal approach, the left thoracoabdominal approach, and a three-stage procedure. The transhiatal approach involves abdominal and cervical incisions, while the left thoracoabdominal approach is a one-stage procedure that utilizes a single incision exposing the dissection field. The Ivor Lewis and McKeown esophagectomies are two-stage and three-stage surgeries that include laparotomy with right thoracotomy. Malabsorption often emerges as a significant postoperative complication following esophagectomy and gastrectomy surgeries. Malnutrition linked with these cancers has detrimental effects, including heightened rates of postoperative complications, elevated infection risks, delayed wound healing, reduced tolerance to treatment, diminished quality of life, and heightened mortality rates. Our narrative review summarizes and sheds light on solutions to treat malabsorption disorders and malnutrition after gastric bypass surgery. These solutions include methods such as adjustments, supplements, and treatment. Although more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness, these methods indicate potential for lowering the impact on patients' diets. By considering the beneficial implications of these effects and considering solutions, we aim to improve the management of these adverse effects, ultimately improving the overall health and postoperative outcomes of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This clinical trial explores the Sigstad score for late dumping syndrome in postoperative patients who have undergone sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB). The aims of this study are to investigate the correlations with late dumping syndrome, to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Sigstad score and to discuss a modified scoring system. METHODS The study was conducted at the Obesity Center of the Westküstenklinikum Heide and included 271 patients. Data collection involved conducting interviews, diet diaries and measuring blood glucose levels. Non-parametric tests, logistic regression and McDonald's Omega were the selected statistical approaches. RESULTS Body Mass Index (BMI) decreased over time (-9.67 kg/m2 at 4 months, -15.58 kg/m2 at 12 months). Preoperatively, the Sigstad score exhibited the highest value, and no occurrences of late dumping syndrome were observed. No significant differences were found in BMI concerning late dumping syndrome or Sigstad score among postoperative patients. Postoperative patients experienced an increase in gastrointestinal symptoms. The reliability test showed a McDonald's omega value of 0.509. The analysis conducted through binary logistic regression indicated dizziness as a significant predictor of late dumping syndrome; however, this finding did not hold up after performing Bonferroni correction. CONCLUSION The Sigstad score is not a reliable or valid method for detecting late dumping syndrome after surgery for obesity and metabolic disorders. It is necessary to have alternatives that use objective measures and assess the quality of life, and that these alternatives be validated in large patient cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal pain and postbariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) are common after bariatric surgery. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore the potential relationship between abdominal pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, and PBH more than a decade after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and whether continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with dietary intervention has an educational role in reducing symptoms. SUBJECTS At two public hospitals in Norway (one University Hospital) 22 of 46 invited patients who reported abdominal pain more than weekly took part. Recruited from a prospective follow-up study of 546 patients 14.5 years after RYGB. METHODS They used a CGM for two 14-day periods, with a dietary intervention between periods. The Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) and the Dumping Severity Score (DSS) questionnaires were completed at the start and end of the study. RESULTS The 22 women had preoperative age 39.6 ± 7.7 years and body mass index (BMI) 42.0 ± 4.0 kg/m2, present age 54.6 ± 7.7 years and BMI 29.8 ± 4.8 kg/m2. The total GSRS score and DSS of early dumping decreased after the diet intervention. The number of events with Level 1 (<3.9 mmol/L) or Level 2 (<3.0 mmol/L) hypoglycemia did not change in the second period. Half of the patients had fewer, three had unchanged, and eight had more frequent events with Level 1 hypoglycemia after the intervention. Ten patients had Level 2 hypoglycemia. CONCLUSION Though inconclusive findings, a personalized dietary intervention reduces GSRS. This intervention was accompanied by lower mean absolute glucose in patients with recurrent abdominal pain after bariatric surgery. However, further studies are needed to explore the benefits of CGM in this setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking milk are often attributed to lactose intolerance or cow's milk allergy. However, some individuals without either condition still report gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking milk. This may be caused by gastric emptying (GE) rate or gastric protein coagulation. This study aimed to compare GE rate and protein coagulation after milk consumption between individuals reporting gastrointestinal symptoms and those without symptoms using a novel gastric MRI approach. METHODS Thirty women were included in this case-control study, of whom 15 reported gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking milk and 15 were controls. Participants underwent gastric MRI before and up to 90 min after consumption of 250 mL cow's milk. Gastric content volume and image texture of the stomach contents were used to determine GE and changes in the degree of coagulation. KEY RESULTS GE half-time did not differ between the groups (gastrointestinal symptom group 66 ± 18 min; control group 61 ± 14 min, p = 0.845). The gastrointestinal symptom group reported symptoms from 30 min onwards and rated pain highest at 90 min. The control group reported no symptoms. Image texture analyses showed a significantly higher percentage of coagulum and lower percentage of liquid in the group in the GI symptom group (MD 11%, 95% CI [3.9, 17], p = 0.003). In vitro data suggests that pH and proteolytic enzyme activity influence the coagulum structure. CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES Gastric milk coagulation and emptied fraction of stomach content may differ between individuals experiencing symptoms after milk consumption, possibly due to differences in pH and proteolytic enzyme activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Data on the effect of dietary fat on dumping syndrome (DS) symptoms are limited. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the addition of fat to a carbohydrate meal on the appearance of DS symptoms and glycemic response, in patients who had undergone gastric surgery. SUBJECTS/METHODS This was an interventional crossover study. Patients scheduled for gastric surgical procedures related to DS at two surgical units of two public hospitals (General University Hospital of Larissa and General Hospital of Larissa) were considered for study inclusion. Patients presenting symptoms suggestive of diagnosis (n = 12), after the ingestion of a carbohydrate meal, were used as both intervention and control groups. During the intervention process, a fat supplement was added to the carbohydrate meal that was previously used for diagnosis. Glycemic response and the amount and intensity of DS symptoms provoked by the two meals were assessed at both appointments. RESULTS Blood glucose levels were significantly lower in the group that consumed the added fat meal compared with the group that consumed the carbohydrate meal 60 minutes after ingestion (p = 0.028). Furthermore, a significant reduction was noted in the amount of late dumping symptoms (p = 0.021) and the intensity of both early and late dumping symptoms (p = 0.007 and p = 0.012 respectively), after fat addition. Conclusions: Incorporating fat into a carbohydrate meal seems to attenuate postprandial blood glucose rises and reduce the amount and intensity of DS symptoms, in patients who had undergone gastric surgery.

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to summarize the effects of oral nutritional supplements (ONSs) on body weight loss (BWL) after gastrectomy. A systematic search was conducted across the PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases through May 2023. The study inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) studies on interventions including ONSs after gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer; (2) studies in which comparisons were specified according to standard, regular, or usual postoperative diets; and (3) randomized controlled trial studies including outcomes measured as mean differences in BWL. The data were pooled using the random-effects model and expressed as mean differences with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Based on data from seven studies including 1743 patients (891 for ONSs and 852 for the control), the overall pooled mean difference was 0.848 (95% CI: 0.466 to 1.230) and the Higgins I2 value was 86.0%. This systematic review and meta-analysis is the first study to show that ONSs are significantly associated with reducing BWL, compared with standard diets, after gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer. Furthermore, we found that ONSs were more effective in patients with lower nutritional kilocalorie intake after gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interest and use of blended diets (BD) for young people who are tube fed has significantly increased in the last decade, driven primarily by the desires of motivated caregivers. This review identified, appraised and synthesised the available evidence on the benefits and complications of BD versus commercial feeds. METHODS A systematic review following PRISMA guidance and registered with PROSPERO was conducted across PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus and Cochrane up to August 2022. INCLUSION CRITERIA English language studies including (1) children, (2) original research (interventional and observational) and (3) examination of BD outcomes. Exclusion criteria were (1) unoriginal research or case reports, (2) focus on feeding management, preparations or attitudes and (3) comparing commercial blends only. Data were synthesised using an established narrative synthesis approach using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. RESULTS Eight hundred and six database results were identified and 61 were sought for retrieval. A full-text article review revealed seven eligible studies, involving 267 participants (age range 9 months to 26 years). Studies reported differences in gastrointestinal symptoms (n = 222), medication use (n = 119), growth (n = 189) and complications or adverse events (n = 91). The results indicate positive outcomes, particularly in gastrointestinal symptom control, with few reports of mild adverse events in the included studies. CONCLUSIONS There is a paucity of data in this area and much heterogeneity in the included studies, but the available literature points towards positive outcomes. This is an important and highly relevant topic, and more primary research, ideally using standardised reporting, is required to answer the key questions.

Abstract
Background Dumping syndrome is a frequent and wellknown adverse event after bariatric surgery and covers a dynamic spectrum of early and late dumping. Accelerated gastric emptying is generally considered to be the cause of gastrointestinal and vasomotor complaints. However, there is much uncertainty regarding the exact pathophysiology of dumping. It has been speculated that the syndrome is a desired consequence of bariatric surgery and contributes to more efficient weight loss, but supporting data are scarce. Methods A systematic search was conducted in PubMed in July-August 2021. The prevalence of dumping after the most frequently performed bariatric procedures was analyzed, as well as underlying pathophysiology and its role in weight reduction. Results Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is associated with the highest postoperative prevalence of dumping. The fast transit induces neurohumoral changes which contribute to an imbalance between postprandial glucose and insulin levels, resulting in hypoglycemia which is the hallmark of late dumping. Early dumping can, when received in a positive way, become a tool to maintain a strict dietary pattern, but no significant relationship to the degree of weight loss has been shown. However, late dumping is detrimental and promotes overall higher caloric intake. Conclusion Dumping syndrome is common after bariatric surgery, especially after RYGB. The pathophysiology is complex and ambiguous. Currently available data do not support dumping as a necessary condition to induce weight loss after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to compare energy, macronutrients (quantity and quality), the overall dietary quality, and eating behaviors of patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) at different times since surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study included 184 adults at least 1 year post-LSG. Dietary intakes were assessed by a 147-item food frequency questionnaire. Macronutrient quality was assessed by computing the macronutrient quality index (MQI), carbohydrate quality index, fat quality index, and healthy plate protein quality index (HPPQI). The Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 was used to assess diet quality. The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire was used to assess eating behaviors. Based on the time since LSG, the time at which eating data were also collected, participants were categorized into three groups: 1-2 years (group 1), 2-3 years (group 2), and 3-5 years (group 3). RESULTS Group 3 consumed significantly more energy and absolute carbohydrates than group 1. The MQI and HPPQI scores of group 3 were significantly lower than those of group 1. The HEI score was significantly lower in group 3 compared to group 1, with a mean difference of 8.1 points. Compared to patients with 1-2 years following LSG, those with 2-3 and 3-5 years consumed more refined grains. Eating behavior scores did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION Patients at 3-5 years post-LSG consumed more energy and carbohydrates than those at 1-2 years after the surgery. Protein quality, overall macronutrient quality, and overall diet quality decreased as time passed following surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Esophagus cancer patients are at risk for malnourishment. Feeding jejunostomy is used in advanced esophagus cancer patients in order to support and supplement the patients' nutrition needs. In dumping syndrome, the food is rapidly introduced into the intestine at a rate that is faster than normal, it is associated with both digestive system and vasoactive symptoms. Dumping syndrome has an association with both esophagus cancer patients and feeding jejunostomy. In the mid and long term, dumping syndrome is an important issue that contributes to the risk of malnourishment in advanced esophagus cancer patients. In recent studies, acupuncture was effective in regulating digestive symptoms. Acupuncture is considered to be a safe intervention, that was previously shown to be effective in treating digestive-related symptoms. METHODS Sixty advanced esophageal cancer patients post-feeding jejunostomy will be divided into 2 equal groups, an intervention group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 30). Patients in the intervention group will receive acupuncture using the following acupoints: ST36 (Zusanli), ST37 (Shangjuxu), ST39 (Xiajuxu), PC6 (Neiguan), LI4 (Hegu), and Liv 3 (Taichung). Patients in the control group will receive shallow acupuncture on 12 non-acupoints (sham points), 1 cm from the above mention points. Patients and assessors will be blind to trial allocation. Both groups will receive acupuncture twice a week for 6 weeks. The main outcome measurements are: body weight, BMI, Sigstad's score, and the Arts' dumping questionnaire. DISCUSSION There are no previous studies that have examined the use of acupuncture on patients with dumping syndrome. This single-blind randomized control trial will investigate the effect of acupuncture on dumping syndrome in advanced esophagus cancer patients with feeding jejunostomy. The results will determine if verum acupuncture can affect dumping syndrome and prevent weight loss.

Abstract
An accurate and timely diagnosis of dumping syndrome after gastric and oesophageal surgery is often difficult. A delay in making this diagnosis and instituting therapy can result in significant morbidity and avoidable complications. As bariatric surgery becomes more prevalent, the importance of a timely diagnosis of dumping syndrome is increasing. We present a case of a 77-year-old man who was admitted into the intensive care unit with a reduced conscious state secondary to hypoglycemia. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with late dumping syndrome in the context of an Ivor Lewis procedure seven years prior. Despite having a history of recurrent neuroglycopenic symptoms, there was a delay in diagnosis as dumping syndrome had not previously been considered until this admission. After confirmation of the diagnosis, the patient was commenced on dietary adjustments and acarbose, with a resolution of post-prandial hypoglycaemia. The authors discuss dietary and pharmacological therapy to manage hypoglycaemia associated with dumping syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study assessed the efficacy and safety of velusetrag-a 5-HT4 agonist with pan-gastrointestinal prokinetic activity-for gastroparesis symptom management and gastric emptying (GE). METHODS In this multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, subjects with diabetic or idiopathic gastroparesis received velusetrag 5, 15, or 30 mg or placebo for 12 weeks. The primary efficacy outcome was a 7-day mean Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index 24-h composite score (GCSI-24H) change from baseline at week 4; GE was evaluated using scintigraphy (GES) and breath tests, and safety from adverse events (AEs). KEY RESULTS 232 subjects (183 females; 113 idiopathic gastroparesis) received treatment from February 2015 through June 2017. Least-squares mean improvement from baseline GCSI-24H (primary endpoint) at week 4 was -1.5 following velusetrag 5 mg vs -1.1 following placebo (treatment difference, -0.4; 95% confidence interval, -0.75 to -0.03; nominal p = 0.0327; Hochberg-adjusted p = 0.0980 [not significant]). Symptom improvement from baseline was achieved only with velusetrag 5 mg, which resulted in greater improvement from baseline vs placebo in all gastroparesis core symptoms, especially in subjects with idiopathic gastroparesis. Improvement from baseline GE by GES was greater in subjects receiving velusetrag (all doses) vs placebo; >70% of subjects receiving velusetrag 30 mg had GE normalization at 4 h. Treatment-emergent AEs were generally mild. CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES Velusetrag treatment was generally well-tolerated and associated with improved GE vs placebo in subjects with diabetic or idiopathic gastroparesis; however, only the lowest dose, velusetrag 5 mg, was associated with short-term improvement in gastroparesis symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present research was conducted to evaluate the effect of the severity of dumping syndrome (DS) on weight loss outcomes after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in patients with class III obesity. METHODS The present retrospective cohort study used the dumping symptom rating scale (DSRS) to evaluate the severity of DS and its correlation with weight loss outcomes in 207 patients 1 year after their RYGB. The patients were assigned to group A with mild-to-moderate DS or group B with severe DS. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 42.18 ± 10.46 years and their mean preoperative BMI 42.74 ± 5.59 kg/m2. The total weight loss percentage (%TWL) in group B was insignificantly higher than that in group A, but besides that was not significantly different in the two groups. CONCLUSION The present findings suggested insignificant relationships between the presence and severity of DS after RYGB and adequate postoperative weight loss.

Abstract
General surgical procedures on the gastrointestinal tract are commonly performed worldwide. Surgical resections of the stomach, small intestine, or large intestine can have a significant impact on the anatomy and physiological environment of the gastrointestinal tract. These physiological changes can affect the effectiveness of orally administered formulations and drug absorption and, therefore, should be considered in rational drug formulation design for specific pathological conditions that are commonly associated with surgical intervention. For optimal drug delivery, it is important to understand how different surgical procedures affect the short-term and long-term functionality of the gastrointestinal tract. The significance of the surgical intervention is dependent on factors such as the specific region of resection, the degree of the resection, the adaptive and absorptive capacity of the remaining tissue, and the nature of the underlying disease. This review will focus on the common pathological conditions affecting the gastric and bowel regions that may require surgical intervention and the physiological impact of the surgery on gastrointestinal drug delivery. The pharmaceutical considerations for conventional and novel oral drug delivery approaches that may be impacted by general surgical procedures of the gastrointestinal tract will also be addressed.

Abstract
This rare case vignette describes hypoglycemic, hyperinsulinemic nesidioblastosis in a female patient with prior Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The patient presented with severe symptomatic hypoglycemia resistant to IV dextrose and diazoxide, requiring surgical resection. Traditional imaging found nonspecific findings, and biochemical analysis was inconsistent with insulinoma. A gallium-68 dotatate PET scan was utilized to successfully localize the tumor in the distal pancreas. She underwent laparoscopic resection of the distal pancreatic lesion with resolution of her symptoms and return to euglycemia. The histological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of nesidioblastosis. Nesidioblastosis is a rare complication of bariatric surgery that may be more clinically relevant with rising prevalence of obesity. Diagnosis with conventional imaging modalities may be challenging; however, the dotatate PET scan may have high utility in detecting lesions. It is essential for clinicians to consider nesidioblastosis in the differential diagnosis of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic conditions and recognize there may be a link with increasing rates of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
Background Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective interventions for morbid obesity. Despite its benefits, unwanted consequences such as dumping syndrome (DS) have been reported following the procedure. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of DS and identify the factors associated with it in Saudi Arabia. Methodology This cross-sectional study collected data from patients who underwent bariatric surgery at King Fahad General Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in 2019-2020. A validated questionnaire was used to collect the data. The questionnaire included demographic items such as age and sex and items relating to DS such as nausea, vomiting, and palpitations. A modified version of the Sigstad diagnostic scoring system was used to confirm the diagnosis. Results Of the 240 investigated cases, two-thirds (67.5%) were females. The most reported symptoms were nausea (37.9%), vomiting (36.7%), desire to lie down (25.5%), restlessness (25.5%), and abdominal fullness (23.7%). Based on the modified Sigstad diagnostic scoring system, 75 (31.4%) patients met the criteria for DS. The bivariate analysis showed the prevalence was significantly higher in females (36.4%), those with university qualifications (40.3%), and those with high monthly income (62.5%) (p<0.05). Also, dietary behaviors in terms of frequency, size of meals, and drinking liquids with meals were significantly associated with the prevalence of DS, where the lowest prevalence was recorded among those who ate more than one small meal (10.9%), while the highest prevalence was found in those who ate more than one large meal (81.8%); also, the prevalence was significantly higher in patients who drank liquids with meals (40.8%) than those who drank liquids between meals (26.8%) (p<0.05). Conclusion In this single institutional study, we report a 31.4% prevalence of DS among our cohort. The predictors of the syndrome include gender, education level, monthly income, eating more than one large meal per day, and drinking liquids with meals. In the future, these predictors will be explained to patients before and after bariatric surgery to reduce the prevalence of such inconvenient syndromes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The timing of nutritional assessment may be important to treat cancer patients and predict their prognosis. This study examined whether Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) and NUTRISCORE scores were associated with survival among gastric cancer patients who underwent surgery and chemotherapy and whether the timing of the assessment after surgery mattered.
Methods
A total of 952 gastric cancer patients (622 men and 330 women) were included in this retrospective cohort study. The PG-SGA and NUTRISCORE scores were calculated at 1 month (n = 952), 2 months (n = 657), and 3 months (n = 294) after surgery. Cox proportional hazards model was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Results
The PG-SGA scores assessed at 1 month after gastrectomy were not associated with survival. However, high PG-SGA scores at 2 months after gastrectomy (median = 65 days) were associated with an increased risk of mortality; the HR (95% CI) was 2.26 (1.22–4.21) for 9–11 vs. ≤ 5 of PG-SGA scores. When we included patients who received all three consecutive consultations, HR (95% CI) was 2.56 (1.02–6.42) for ≥ 9 (malnutrition) vs. ≤ 8 of PG-SGA scores assessed at 3 months after surgery (median days = 98 days). Likewise, high NUTRISCORE scores assessed at the 3-month follow-up were associated with higher mortality; the HR (95% CI) was 3.84 (1.18–12.55) for ≥ 7 vs. ≤ 4 of NUTRISCORE scores.
Conclusion
Malnutrition assessed with the PG-SGA and NUTRISCORE at 2 to 3 months after gastrectomy was associated with poor survival among gastric cancer patients. Our findings suggest that the timing of the nutritional evaluation may be important in identifying and treating malnutrition related to gastric cancer prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The gastrocolonic response (GCR), is a physiologic increase in motor activity of the colon, which usually occurs within minutes following meal ingestion. Over the years several triggers that provoke GCR were recognized including gastric dilation, caloric intake, and fat component of the meal. The response is mediated by the vagal nerve and neurohumoral mechanisms, and it can be modified by several pharmacological factors. Assessment of GCR is part of high-resolution colonic manometry studies, performed in patients with suspected colonic dysmotility. This review highlights the physiologic basis of GCR as well as its clinical and diagnostic features and implementation in variable pathological conditions and clinical practice. RECENT FINDINGS GCR has a role in patients with constipation, diabetes, dumping syndrome, bowel hyper and hypomotility and irritable bowel syndrome. Novel sensory triggers for GCR were recently recognized. GCR is a physiological response which is evaluated during colonic manometry studies. Abnormal GCR is a marker of an underlying pathology, which can provide a potential target for treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dumping syndrome is a known complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Recently, endoscopic gastrojejunal anastomosis (GJA) revision has been employed as a treatment option. The primary aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis for the role of endoscopic GJA revision in patients with RYGB for the treatment of dumping syndrome. METHODS Search strategies were developed for PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases from inception through December 2020 in accordance with PRISMA and MOOSE guidelines. Pooled proportions with rates estimated using random effects models were used. Outcomes included pooled technical success, clinical success, adverse events, and rate of reintervention. Heterogeneity was assessed with I2 statistics and publication bias by funnel plot using Egger and Begg tests. RESULTS Six studies (n = 263 patients; 60.25% female) were included (1 prospective and 5 retrospective). Mean age was 46.27 ± 2.54 years. Average patient weight was 95.59 ± 4.78 kg, BMI of 41.43 ± 3.07 kg/m2, and pre-procedure GJA size of 32.23 ± 8.68 mm. Pooled technical and clinical success was 98.15% and 89.5%. Among studies reporting Sigstad scores, endoscopic GJA revision resulted in a significant improvement [mean Sigstad score difference of - 9.96 (95% CI, - 19.951 to - 0.975); P < 0.03]. Mean procedure time was 37.12 ± 10.40 min with an intra-procedural adverse event rate of 2.42%. Over a mean follow-up of 8.03 ± 6.87 months, post-procedure adverse events occurred in 2.96% of patients with a reintervention rate of 11.54%. CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that endoscopic GJA revision appears an effective and safe treatment for dumping syndrome.

Abstract
Introduction Treatment of obesity by bariatric surgery has increased in recent years. Reported side effects that may predispose to dental erosion include reflux, vomiting, and an increased frequency of intake of food and drink. Objective The aim was to investigate long-term dietary behaviour and experiences related to symptoms of dental erosion at least 5 years after bariatric surgery. Methods An online questionnaire study was conducted amongst 250 patients who had undergone bariatric surgery at King Saud Medical City in Saudi Arabia 5 years ago or more. It comprised 36 questions on demographic data, dietary habits, general health, dental health, and oral symptoms. The data were analysed using Chi-square and sign tests (significance level P < .05). Results A significant increase in acidic reflux and vomiting was found after bariatric surgery and appeared to increase with time after surgery. Also, a significant association between presence of acidic reflux and symptoms of dental erosion was found. However, 68.5% reported improved overall well-being after surgery. The response rate was 21.6% (most were female, aged 30-59 years). Respondents were generally not advised to visit a dentist in connection with bariatric surgery. Conclusions This long-term cross-sectional study suggests a time-dependent, increasing occurrence of vomiting and acidic reflux after bariatric surgery. Vomiting and reflux became even more common after 5 to 10 years. A significant relationship emerged between a high frequency of acidic reflux and a high frequency of oral symptoms related to dental erosion. Daily occurrence of general symptoms related to dumping syndrome were reported by the majority. However, in a 5- to 10-year perspective, general symptoms related to dumping syndrome and symptoms from dental erosion did not seem to detract from the respondents’ overall satisfaction with daily living. Oral health problems might be reduced if patients who had bariatric surgery were referred to a dentist for prevention and monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Defecation disorders are obscure sequelae that occurs after gastrectomy, and its implication on daily lives of patients have not been sufficiently investigated.
AIM To examine the features of defecation disorders after gastrectomy and to explore its implication on daily lives of patients in a large cohort using the Postgastrectomy Syndrome Assessment Scale (PGSAS)-45.
METHODS We conducted a nationwide multi-institutional study using PGSAS-45 to examine the prevalence of postgastrectomy syndrome and its impact on daily lives of patients after various types of gastrectomy. Data were obtained from 2368 eligible patients at 52 institutions in Japan. Of these, 1777 patients who underwent total gastrectomy (TG; n = 393) or distal gastrectomy (DG; n = 1384) were examined. The severity of defecation disorder symptoms, such as diarrhea and constipation, and their correlation with other postgastrectomy symptoms were examined. The importance of defecation disorder symptoms on the living states and quality of life (QOL) of postgastrectomy patients, and those clinical factors that affect the severity of defecation disorder symptoms were evaluated using multiple regression analysis.
RESULTS Among seven symptom subscales of PGSAS-45, the ranking of diarrhea was 4th in TG and 2nd in DG. The ranking of constipation was 5th in TG and 1st in DG. The symptoms that correlated well with diarrhea were dumping and indigestion in both TG and DG; while those with constipation were abdominal pain and meal-related distress in TG, and were meal-related distress and indigestion in DG. Among five main outcome measures (MOMs) of living status domain, constipation significantly impaired four MOMs, while diarrhea had no effect in TG. Both diarrhea and constipation impaired most of five MOMs in DG. Among six MOMs of QOL domain, diarrhea impaired one MOM, whereas constipation impaired all six MOMs in TG. Both diarrhea and constipation equally impaired all MOMs in DG. Male sex, younger age, division of the celiac branch of vagus nerve, and TG, independently worsened diarrhea, while female sex worsened constipation.
CONCLUSION Defecation disorder symptoms, particularly constipation, impair the living status and QOL of patients after gastrectomy; therefore, we should pay attention and adequately treat these relatively modest symptoms to improve postoperative QOL.

Abstract
Bariatric and metabolic surgery is a safe and effective treatment of morbid obesity, a disease that continues to increase in prevalence in the United States and worldwide. The two most commonly performed operations are the sleeve gastrectomy and the gastric bypass. Early and late complications can occur, and although referral to a bariatric surgeon or center is ideal, emergency management of acute problems is relevant to all general surgeons. Bariatric surgery can have surgical and metabolic consequences. An understanding of the altered anatomy and physiology helps to guide management of morbidities. This article discusses surgical postoperative complications and metabolic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-quality documentation of dumping symptoms after esophagectomy is currently limited. The aim of the study was to describe the incidence of symptoms associated with dumping syndrome and their relationship with health-related quality of life after esophagectomy. METHODS The study cohort was identified from prospective IRB-approved databases from two high-volume esophagectomy centers. Patients that were alive and without evidence of recurrence in April 2018 completed the validated Dumping Symptom Rating Scale and health-related quality of life questionnaires. Compound dumping symptom score was created by combining the individual scores for severity and frequency for each symptom. RESULTS In total, 171 patients who underwent esophagectomy 1995-2017 responded to the questionnaires, corresponding to a response rate of 77.0%. Median age was 66 years and median time from operation to survey was 5.5 years. Absent or mild problems in all nine dumping symptoms were reported by 94 (59.5%) patients; 19 (12.0%) patients reported moderate or severe problems in at least three symptoms, the most common being postprandial "need to lie down," "diarrhea," and "stomach cramps." Increasing compound dumping symptom score was associated with significantly decreased function scores in all aspects of health-related quality of life except physical functioning (P < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Esophagectomy has the potential to change long-term eating patterns; however, the majority of patients in the study did not have severe postoperative dumping symptoms. On the other hand, moderate-to-severe dumping symptoms, which were reported by 12% of patients in this study, were strongly associated with decreased health-related quality of life.

Abstract
Surgery is an essential component of curative-intent treatment strategies for gastric cancer. However, the care of each patient with gastric cancer must be individualized based on patient and tumor characteristics. It is important that all physicians who will be caring for patient with gastric cancer understand the current best practices of surgical management to provide patients with the highest quality of care. This article aims to provide this information while acknowledging areas of surgical management that are still controversial.

Abstract
Dumping syndromes are a common side effect after partial or total gastric resection. The symptoms may be diverse, with vasomotoric reactions, collapse tendencies and digestive disorders (early dumping) as well as blood sugar derailment as a result of too fast absorption of glucose (late dumping).Entrenched therapy concepts, including personalized nutritional concepts and the use of medication as octreotide or diazoxide, will not always lead to the desired results. It is then, that individual therapy concepts have to be found to restore the patient's quality of life, as shown in this case study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dumping syndrome (DS) is an important but often underreported problem occurring after bariatric surgery. It is believed that gastric bypass procedures like Roux-en-Y Gastric By-pass (RYGB) and One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) are more likely to cause DS than the pylorus-preserving Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG). The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of DS in patients undergoing SG, RYGB and OAGB. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective clinical study with 180 patients undergoing SG (n=50), RYGB (n=53) and OAGB (n=77) between 2016-2018 was performed. All clinical and demo-graphic data were assessed. The percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) was used to evaluate weight reduction. 127/180 (70.6%) patients took part in an additional phone interview. The incidence of DS was evaluated using validated Sigstad Score. RESULTS Information about the occurrence of dumping symptoms and patient satisfaction was obtained from 127 patients. Median follow-up was 20.0±11.4 months. Significant differences between the surgical procedures were found for the duration of surgery, complications, weight loss, incidence of DS and satisfaction postoperatively. DS occurred in 15.6% after SG, 56.4% after RYGB and 42.9% after OAGB. A higher weight loss was observed in patients who experienced dumping symptoms. CONCLUSION The present results show a clear superiority of SG regarding both perioperative results and incidence of DS compared to RYGB and OAGB and may impact clinicians and patients in their choice of procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the cornerstone of esophageal cancer treatment but remains burdened with significant postoperative changes of gastrointestinal function and quality of life. PURPOSE The aim of this narrative review is to assess and summarize the current knowledge on postoperative functional syndromes and quality of life after esophagectomy for cancer, and to provide orientation for the reader in the challenging field of functional aftercare. CONCLUSIONS Post-esophagectomy syndromes include various conditions such as dysphagia, reflux, delayed gastric emptying, dumping syndrome, weight loss, and chronic diarrhea. Clinical pictures and individual expressions are highly variable and may be extremely distressing for those affected. Therefore, in addition to a mostly well-coordinated oncological follow-up, we strongly emphasize the need for regular monitoring of physical well-being and gastrointestinal function. The prerequisite for an effective functional aftercare covering the whole spectrum of postoperative syndromes is a comprehensive knowledge of the pathophysiological background. As functional conditions often require a complex diagnostic workup and long-term therapy, close interdisciplinary cooperation with radiologists, gastroenterologists, oncologists, and specialized nutritional counseling is imperative for successful management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE After Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), postprandial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (PPHH) is particularly critical because of the risk of trauma. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence and identify risk factors for symptomatic PPHH. METHODS Patients with RYGB were classified into moderate PPHH (MH) or severe hypoglycemia (SH), which is defined as patients with neuroglycopenic symptoms. Logistic multivariate linear regressions were performed to identify predictive factors for symptomatic PPHH and more specifically for SH with neuroglycopenic symptoms. Patients with diabetes and those with a follow-up shorter than 2 years were excluded. RESULTS Among the 1,138 patients, 44.2% had at least one episode of hypoglycemia with a mean delay of 25.5 (21.3) months, 32.6% had MH, and 11.6% had SH. The annual incidence rate of SH was 2.5% the first year, 3.7% the second year, and 1.5% the third year. Independent predictive factors for higher risk of SH were: younger age (odds ratio [OR] = 1.01; 95% CI: 1.05-16.69; P = 0.0007), lower BMI after RYGB (OR = 1.61; 95% CI: 1.17-2.22; P = 0.0035), and maximal weight loss (OR = 1.04; 95% CI = 1.39-1.23; P = 0.0106), whereas higher preoperative BMI was protective (OR = 0.78; 95% CI: 0.64-0.95; P = 0.0112). CONCLUSIONS This observational cohort study showed that the incidence of severe PPHH with neuroglycopenic symptoms after RYGB was higher than expected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies investigating the underlying pathophysiology are needed to help explain and understand the postoperative complications following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. This study aimed to characterize segmental gastrointestinal pH profiles, motility measures, and transit times in patients with RYGB. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen patients with RYGB underwent a standardized wireless motility capsule assessment. The oro-cecal segment was defined from capsule ingestion until the passage of the ileocecal junction. Segmental median pH, motility index, and transit time were determined for the oro-cecal and colonic segment as well as for the first and last hour of both these segments. For comparison to reference values, data from 17 healthy age- and gender-matched controls was used. A mixed effect model was used to describe differences between groups. RESULTS Median pH was high in patients with RYGB during the first hour of the oro-cecal segment (6.45 ± 0.4 vs 3.65 ± 1.55 pH units for healthy controls; P < 0.001), as well as during the entire oro-cecal segment (6.97 ± 0.4 vs 5.51 ± 1.1 pH units; P < 0.001). The same was evident for the median motility index (152 ± 64 vs 35.8 ± 31.1 mmHg*sec/min; P < 0.001 and 130 ± 65.9 vs 89.1 ± 20 mmHg*sec/min; P < 0.012, respectively). Median motility index was low the first hour of the colon (55.2 ± 45.7 vs 122 ± 77.9 mmHg*sec/min; P < 0.002). Additionally, patients had short oro-cecal transit time (5.8 ± 1.6 vs 7.6 ± 1.4 h; P < 0.001) and long colonic transit time (29.4 ± 17.5 vs 19.6 ± 12.2 h; P = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS In patients with RYGB, the oro-cecal segment was characterized by an alkaline intraluminal environment, high motility activity, and short transit time. In contrast, colonic transit time was long.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dumping syndrome (DS) is a common complication of bariatric surgery. Treatments include dietary and behavioral changes, as well as pharmacotherapy and revision surgery. All can be costly or hard to adhere to. In recent years, evidence accumulates in favor of endoscopic trans-oral outlet reduction (TORe) as an effective treatment for DS, targeting the pathophysiology of rapid gastric clearance. The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of TORe for DS in a single referral center. METHODS Patients after bariatric surgery suffering DS were followed, and data were retrospectively analyzed. Diagnosis and post-procedural assessment of DS were made clinically using Sigstad score. During the procedure, the anastomotic rim was cauterized. Afterwards, 2 non-interrupted "8-figure" sutures were placed, resulting in imbrication of additional gastric tissue on top of the anastomosis and narrowing to <1 cm at the end of the procedure. Patients were instructed to keep a liquid diet for 14 days and follow-up continued for 6 months. RESULTS Between 8/2018 and 9/2019 TORe was carried out in 13 patients (M:F = 3:10) with mean age of 45.1 (range 25-56) and BMI of 33.5 (range 28.1-40.3). Average time since recent surgery was 5.5 years (range 1-9). Mean pre-procedure anastomosis diameter was 25.2 mm (range 15-30) and was reduced to a mean of 5.6 mm (range 5-10). Three patients (23%) were admitted overnight due to inability to drink which resolved spontaneously. No major complications were reported. At 6 months, the Sigstad score was significantly reduced (19.4 ± 3.6 vs 5.2 ± 5.5, P < 0.001), and 11/13 (85%) of patients had a complete resolution of their dumping symptoms. In addition, BMI decreased by a mean of 2.3 kg/m2 (-1 to 7.5, p = 0.002). CONCLUSION TORe is a safe and effective treatment for patients suffering dumping syndrome and should be considered early in the treatment of DS.

Abstract
A theoretical model of the pyloric channel, approximated as a two-dimensional tube with sinusoidal corrugation, is developed to estimate the degree of resistance offered by the pylorus to transpyloric flow (gastric emptying and duodenogastric reflux) in the viscous regime. Study indicates that the resistance of the channel depends on pressure gradient, flow behavior index and channel diameter. Flow is majorly determined by the extent of luminal opening; since they scale to fourth power of the diameter for Newtonian flow, with the exponent being higher for pseudoplastic and lesser in case of dilatants relative to Newtonian fluid. At zero pressure difference, across the channel, the closing pylorus drives the aborad propulsion of the contents at the intestinal end, and at the gastric end the flow is driven along the orad direction. While no transfer of contents occur at the centre of pylorus due to zero pressure gradients, it is essential to have a non-zero pressure difference to drive the flow through the channel. The extent of pressure difference is found to linearly relate to the transpyloric flow rate. The resistive function of the pyloric channel is observed at a higher occlusion where there is a development of higher pressure barrier that is sensitive to the flow behavior index, frequency, occlusion, and contraction length.

Abstract
Dumping syndrome has long been associated with gastric surgery. The authors experienced an adult patient presenting with dumping syndrome after meningitis without any previous surgical procedures on the stomach and small bowel. Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system after infective meningitis may originate from postinfectious sequelae or an immunologic mechanism. A comprehensive study and proper management of autonomic symptoms of patients with a central nervous system infection are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Dumping syndrome (DS) is mostly described as a complication of antireflux surgery in oesophageal atresia (OA) but we previously reported 2 cases of DS before any other surgery in infants operated at birth for OA. The objectives of the present study were to assess the prevalence of abnormal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 3 months of age in infants operated at birth with type C OA, to describe symptoms and clinical features, and to assess risk factors in infants presenting with abnormal OGTT suggestive of DS. METHODS A prospective case series study including infants with type C OA without fundoplication, born between 2013 and 2016 in 8 centres was conducted. An OGTT was performed between 2.5 and 3.5 months. Abnormal OGTT was defined as early hyperglycaemia (>1.8 g/L until 30 minutes; >1.7 g/L between 30 minutes and 2 hours; and >1.4 g/L between 2 and 3 hours) and/or late hypoglycaemia (<0.6 g/L after 2 hours). RESULTS Eleven of the 38 OGTT (29%) showed abnormalities. None of the patients' demographics (birth weight, sex, prematurity, associated malformation, use of enteral nutrition) or conditions of the surgery tested was associated with abnormal OGTT. No clinical sign was specific for it. CONCLUSIONS DS should be considered in every infant operated at birth for OA presenting with digestive symptoms. No risk factor was predictive for abnormal OGTT. An OGTT to screen for potential DS around 3 months of age should be considered in infants born with EA. CLINICAL TRIAL NAME AND REGISTRATION NUMBER DUMPING NCT02525705.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bariatric surgery is considered to be the most effective treatment of morbid obesity. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) are the most popular procedures. We evaluated nutritional status, micro- and macronutrient intake, and oral hydration in patients before and regularly during 1 year after RYGBP and SG. METHODS All patients that had been through bariatric surgery with at least 1-year post-surgery were retrospectively included in the study. All participants were evaluated once during the 2 months before the surgery and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Clinical and biological evaluations as well as dietary investigations were performed. RESULTS Fifty-seven patients were included in this study (28 RYGBP and 29 SG). Patients in the RYGBP group had significantly higher body weight (132.3 ± 22 versus 122.2 ± 22.2 kg, p = 0.039) than patients in the SG group. Before surgery, total energy intake, oral hydration, and vitamin and mineral intakes were not different between the two groups. RYGBP and SG induced significant similar excess weight loss 1 year after surgery, 48.6 29.8% and 57.6 27.6% of body weight respectively. Energy intake significantly decreased 1 month after surgery and slightly increased from 1 to 12 months without reaching baseline intake levels. Macronutrient repartition did not change during follow-up. Oral hydration significantly decreased after RYGBP (- 58%) and showed a trend to be decreased after SG (- 49%). Sixty-five percent of patients still had vitamin D deficiency 1 year after surgery. Whatever the type of surgery, more than 20% had some vitamin deficiency 1 month after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Calories intake decreases after bariatric surgery, whatever the type of procedure. In addition, the prevalence of vitamin deficiency is high after bariatric surgery. Lastly, oral hydration is importantly decreased after bariatric surgery, especially after RYGBP.

Abstract
In rodents, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) decreases intake of, and preference for, foods or fluids that are high in sugar. Whether these surgically induced changes are due to decreases in the palatability of sugar stimuli is controversial. We used RYGB and sham-operated (SHAM) female rats to test the influence of prolonged ingestive experience with sugar solutions on the motivational potency of these stimuli to drive licking in brief-access (BA) tests. In experiment 1, RYGB attenuated intake of, and caloric preference for, 0.3 M sucrose during five consecutive, 46-h two-bottle tests (TBTs; sucrose). A second series of TBTs (5 consecutive, 46-h tests) with 1.0 M sucrose revealed similar results, except fluid preference for 1.0 M sucrose also significantly decreased. Before, between, and after the two series of TBTs, two sessions of BA tests (30 min; 10-s trials) with an array of sucrose concentrations (0 and 0.01-1.0 M) were conducted. Concentration-dependent licking and overall trial initiation did not differ between surgical groups in any test. In a similar experimental design in a second cohort of female rats, 0.6 and 2.0 M glucose (isocaloric with sucrose concentrations in experiment 1) were used in the TBTs; 0 and 0.06-2.0 M glucose were used in the BA tests. Outcomes were similar to those for experiment 1, except RYGB rats initiated fewer trials during the BA tests. Although RYGB profoundly affected intake of, and caloric preference for, sugar solutions and, with high concentrations, fluid preference, RYGB never influenced the motivational potency of sucrose or glucose to drive concentration-dependent licking in BA tests.

Surg Obes Relat Dis 2020; 16:626-632. [PMID: 32007433 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2019.12.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2019] [Revised: 12/04/2019] [Accepted: 12/12/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Attention to and interpretation of symptoms are influenced by psychologic and contextual factors. Preoperative anxiety, and to some extent depression, has been found to predict the perceived impact of somatic symptoms 1 year after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Postoperative changes in negative affect may possibly both influence and be influenced by the perception of somatic symptoms. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore whether preoperative anxiety and depressive symptoms correlated with perceived impact of somatic symptoms 3 years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Second, we aimed to examine the 3-year trajectory of depressive and anxiety symptoms, and their interaction with perceived somatic symptoms postoperatively. SETTING University hospital. METHODS Presurgery, 1-, and 3-year postsurgery data were collected from 169 participants (62.4% follow-up). Anxiety and depressive symptoms were assessed at all time points. The participants reported the degree of perceived impact of various somatic symptoms 1 and 3 years after surgery. A cross-lagged, autoregressive regression analysis was employed to examine the mutual interaction of trajectories over the follow-up period. RESULTS Fatigue (30.8%) and dumping (23.7%) were common high-impact symptoms 3 years postoperatively. Higher baseline anxiety was associated with higher impact of fatigue, pain, and diarrhea, while depressive mood was related to higher impact of diarrhea at 3-year follow-up. Higher anxiety/depression symptoms were bidirectionally related to higher perceived total symptom impact at both 1 and 3 years postoperatively, controlling for percent total weight loss. Higher perceived impact of somatic symptom burden at 1 year after surgery predicted a significant increase in depressive symptoms the next 2 years. CONCLUSION Baseline anxiety was associated with higher perceived impact of several somatic symptoms 3 years after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Higher total symptom burden (pain, fatigue, dumping, diarrhea, and vomiting) at 1 year after surgery predicted increase in depression over the next 2 years. The results underscore the importance of managing somatic symptoms after surgery to prevent patients' distress.

Abstract
Although slow gastric emptying (gastroparesis) is a well-known complication of chronic hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus (DM), it recently has become clear that rapid gastric emptying also is a frequent and important diabetic complication. In contrast, acute hyperglycemia causes slow gastric emptying, and acute hypoglycemia causes rapid gastric emptying. Rapid gastric emptying is frequent in T2DM; however, it may also occur in T1DM, particularly in the early stages of the disease, but may persist even into late stages. Recent studies suggest that usually, the stomach restricts the emptying of nutrients to 1-4 kcals/min. This restriction is due to the action of the gastric 'braking' hormones such as GLP-1, leptin, and amylin acting via the gastric inhibitory vagal motor circuit (GIVMC). Disruption of this braking system leads to rapid gastric emptying. Acute hyperglycemia also slows gastric emptying by stimulating the GIVMC, while acute hypoglycemia causes rapid gastric emptying by stimulating the gastric excitatory vagal motor circuit (GEVMC). In contrast, chronic hyperglycemia causes rapid gastric emptying by inducing oxidative stress in the stomach wall that disrupts inhibitory neuromuscular transmission and increases the contractility of the smooth muscle, while chronic hyperglycemia may also cause slow gastric emptying via severe inflammatory stress caused by proinflammatory macrophages and reduce contractility of the smooth muscle. There is a bidirectional relationship between blood glucose and gastric emptying. Thus, rapid gastric emptying may lead to a sizeable postprandial spike, and slow gastric emptying may blunt it. Postprandial hyperglycemia is involved in the development, progression, and complications of DM. Correction of fast gastric emptying involves agents that activate GIVMC and the use of gastric 'braking' hormones or their analogs. Recognition and treatment of rapid gastric emptying may contribute to better management of postprandial hyperglycemia and prevention of some diabetic complications.

Abstract
Interstitial cells of Cajal, which express the calcium-activated chloride channel transmembrane member 16A (TMEM16A), are an important determinant of gastrointestinal (GI) motility. We previously identified the acylaminocycloalkylthiophene class of TMEM16A inhibitors, which, following medicinal chemistry, gave analog 2-bromodifluoroacetylamino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-cyclohepta[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic acid o-tolylamide (TMinh-23) with 30 nM half-maximal inhibitory concentration. Here, we tested the efficacy of TMinh-23 for inhibition of GI motility in mice. In isolated murine gastric antrum, TMinh-23 strongly inhibited spontaneous and carbachol-stimulated rhythmic contractions. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed predicted therapeutic concentrations of TMinh-23 for at least 4 h following a single oral or intraperitoneal dose at 10 mg/kg. Gastric emptying, as assessed following an oral bolus of phenol red or independently by [99mTc]-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid scintigraphy, was reduced by TMinh-23 by ∼60% at 20 min. Interestingly, there was little effect of TMinh-23 on baseline whole-gut transit time or time to diarrhea induced by castor oil. Consequent to the delay in gastric emptying, TMinh-23 administration significantly reduced the elevation in blood sugar in mice following an oral but not intraperitoneal glucose load. These results provide pharmacological evidence for involvement of TMEM16A in gastric emptying and suggest the utility of TMEM16A inhibition in disorders of accelerated gastric emptying, such as dumping syndrome, and potentially for improving glucose tolerance in diabetes mellitus/metabolic syndrome and enhancing satiety in obesity.-Cil, O., Anderson, M.

Abstract
Dumping syndrome (DS) is a debilitating entity with gastrointestinal and vasomotor symptoms due to rapid gastric emptying. It is a rare complication of Nissen fundoplication in adults. We report the case of a patient with oesophageal compressive symptoms (dysphagia, oesophageal food impaction and regurgitation) and frequent episodes of sweating and hypoglycaemia after a Nissen fundoplication to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease. Investigation revealed severe oesophagogastric stenosis and excluded insulinoma and other causes of hypoglycaemia. An oral glucose tolerance test and gastric emptying scintigraphy were performed, supporting the diagnosis of DS.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this paper was to extend the prior literature on eating pathology following bariatric surgery by highlighting themes in data published over the past 3 years and identifying limitations and future directions for research. RECENT FINDINGS Changes in eating pathology after bariatric surgery remain consistent with previous research. Specifically, diagnostic prevalence rates and incidence of related behaviors generally decrease following surgery. However, some research supports that these factors increase and/or remit over time following surgery, and that they subsequently have a negative impact on weight loss outcomes. While recent findings have extended knowledge on eating pathology following bariatric surgery, the overall body of literature is still relatively limited. Additional research is needed, including work focusing on the standardization of eating pathology definitions, development/validation of standardized eating pathology instruments for bariatric surgery patients, and predictors of risk for continued or new onset eating pathology following surgery.

Abstract
Gastroparesis and dumping syndrome both evolve from a disturbed gastric emptying mechanism. Although gastroparesis results from delayed gastric emptying and dumping syndrome from accelerated emptying of the stomach, the two entities share several similarities among which are an underestimated prevalence, considerable impairment of quality of life, the need for a multidisciplinary team setting, and a step-up treatment approach. In the following review, we will present an overview of the most important clinical aspects of gastroparesis and dumping syndrome including epidemiology, pathophysiology, presentation, and diagnostics. Finally, we highlight promising therapeutic options that might be available in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The patient presented with symptomatic postprandial biweekly hypoglycemic seizures. Her hypoglycemic episodes were aggravated by stress and also occurred during sleep. She managed these hypoglycemic episodes with an endocrinologist, trying both nutritional and medical management without successful control of her symptoms. An endoscopic gastrojejunal revision (EGJR) was recommended to provide more restriction and prolong transit time into the Roux limb to decrease the chance of postoperative dumping syndrome and subsequent hypoglycemia. METHODS This video is a case study of an EGJR done for persistent postoperative hypoglycemia. The gastroscope was introduced and using Argon Plasma Coagulation at a flow of 8 liters/min and 30 watts; the mucosa around the gastrojejunal stoma was ablated circumferentially. This was done to decrease bleeding from needle placement and to promote adherence of the mucosa after the sutures were placed. The purse-string technique was favored for this procedure due to an inherent reduction in suture tension. Several full-thickness bites were taken to narrow the stoma from 20 to 4 mm in diameter. RESULTS The patient was discharged home the same day following the procedure. She was placed on a two week liquid bariatric postoperative diet. At two week follow-up, the patient reported normal blood sugars and no hypoglycemic episodes since surgery. At six month follow-up, the patient reported significant improvement in her hypoglycemia symptoms, and no further syncopal episodes or seizures. CONCLUSION We believe this case demonstrates that endoscopic gastrojejunal revision (or EGJR) is an effective treatment option for postprandial hypoglycemia following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
