Abstract
BACKGROUND Prokinetics are a class of pharmacological drugs designed to improve gastrointestinal (GI) motility, either regionally or across the whole gut. Each drug has its merits and drawbacks, and based on current evidence as high-quality studies are limited, we have no clear recommendation on one class or other. However, there remains a large unmet need for both regionally selective and/or globally acting prokinetic drugs that work primarily intraluminally and are safe and without systemic side effects. PURPOSE Here, we describe the strengths and weaknesses of six classes of prokinetic drugs, including their pharmacokinetic properties, efficacy, safety and tolerability and potential indications.

Abstract
Diabetic gastroparesis (DGP) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus, marked by gastrointestinal motility disorder, a delayed gastric emptying present in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Clinical manifestations include postprandial fullness and epigastric discomfort, bloating, nausea, and vomiting. DGP may significantly affect the quality of life and productivity of patients. Research on the relationship between gastrointestinal dynamics and DGP has received much attention because of the increasing prevalence of DGP. Gastrointestinal motility disorders are closely related to a variety of factors including the absence and destruction of interstitial cells of Cajal, abnormalities in the neuro-endocrine system and hormone levels. Therefore, this study will review recent literature on the mechanisms of DGP and gastrointestinal motility disorders as well as the development of prokinetic treatment of gastrointestinal motility disorders in order to give future research directions and identify treatment strategies for DGP.

Abstract
Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G-POME) is an emerging minimally invasive endoscopic technique involving the establishment of a submucosal tunnel around the pyloric sphincter. In 2013, Khashab et al used G-POME for the first time in the treatment of gastroparesis with enhanced therapeutic efficacy, providing a new direction for the treatment of gastroparesis. With the recent and rapid development of G-POME therapy technology, progress has been made in the treatment of gastroparesis and other upper digestive tract diseases, such as congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and gastric sleeve stricture, with G-POME. This article reviews the research progress and future prospects of G-POME for the treatment of upper digestive tract gastrointestinal diseases.

Abstract
Restless leg syndrome (RLS) is a chronic disorder characterized by a compulsive urge to move the legs, accompanied by various subjective symptoms and a distinctive nyctimeral pattern. A negligent entity is drug-induced RLS, which may be challenging to recognize by practitioners due to its rarity. Among various drugs that can induce or exacerbate RLS, metoclopramide is notable; however, the literature primarily describes cases related to its intravenous forms. In this case presentation, a 33-year-old male experienced drug-related gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms after starting semaglutide for weight loss. Semaglutide was discontinued, and oral metoclopramide was administered to manage the GI symptoms. Subsequently, he developed RLS-like symptoms, which resolved within 48 hours of stopping metoclopramide. His family history included chronic RLS. Laboratory tests were normal. The case highlights a potential link between drug administration and transient RLS symptoms. This case suggests that RLS can be a rare, reversible side effect of oral metoclopramide. It emphasizes the need for careful monitoring of RLS symptoms in patients using this drug and highlights the variability of side effects depending on the method of drug administration. The case serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of drug reactions and the importance of vigilance in pharmacotherapy.

[PMID: 37924856 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2023.10.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Metoclopramide nasal spray (MNS) was developed as an alternative to oral metoclopramide. Prior phase 2 studies demonstrated efficacy in reducing symptoms in women, but not men with diabetic gastroparesis. The aim of this phase 3 study was to further determine the safety and efficacy of MNS compared with placebo in reducing symptoms of diabetic gastroparesis in women. METHODS This US multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group study enrolled women aged 18-75 years with diabetic gastroparesis and delayed gastric emptying. Subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive placebo or MNS 10 mg. The primary efficacy end point was change in mean daily Gastroparesis Symptom Assessment total score from baseline to Week 4. The Gastroparesis Symptom Assessment daily diary is a validated patient-reported outcome instrument that averages scores of nausea, early satiety, prolonged fullness, bloating, and upper abdominal pain on a 5-point ordinal scale. RESULTS Two hundred and five subjects were randomized to receive placebo (n = 103) or MNS (n = 102). Overall, the MNS group did not experience a significant reduction in symptoms compared with the placebo group from baseline to Week 4 (P = .881). However, subjects with moderate-to-severe symptoms at baseline had a significant treatment effect from Weeks 1 to 3 (P < .05) and experienced a significant reduction in nausea and upper abdominal pain for all 4 weeks versus placebo (P < .05). Treatment-emergent adverse events were primarily mild to moderate with headache and abdominal pain reported most frequently. CONCLUSIONS Although the primary end point was not met using all enrolled patients, treatment with MNS provided significant relief for women with moderate-to-severe diabetic gastroparesis symptoms. MNS was well tolerated and demonstrated a similar safety profile to placebo. (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02025725.).

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In 2016, ESPEN published the guideline for Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) in adults. An updated version of ESPEN guidelines on CIF due to benign disease in adults was devised in order to incorporate new evidence since the publication of the previous ESPEN guidelines. METHODS The grading system of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) was used to grade the literature. Recommendations were graded according to the levels of evidence available as A (strong), B (conditional), 0 (weak) and Good practice points (GPP). The recommendations of the 2016 guideline (graded using the GRADE system) which were still valid, because no studies supporting an update were retrieved, were reworded and re-graded accordingly. RESULTS The recommendations of the 2016 guideline were reviewed, particularly focusing on definitions, and new chapters were included to devise recommendations on IF centers, chronic enterocutaneous fistulas, costs of IF, caring for CIF patients during pregnancy, transition of patients from pediatric to adult centers. The new guideline consist of 149 recommendations and 16 statements which were voted for consensus by ESPEN members, online in July 2022 and at conference during the annual Congress in September 2022. The Grade of recommendation is GPP for 96 (64.4%) of the recommendations, 0 for 29 (19.5%), B for 19 (12.7%), and A for only five (3.4%). The grade of consensus is "strong consensus" for 148 (99.3%) and "consensus" for one (0.7%) recommendation. The grade of consensus for the statements is "strong consensus" for 14 (87.5%) and "consensus" for two (12.5%). CONCLUSIONS It is confirmed that CIF management requires complex technologies, multidisciplinary and multiprofessional activity, and expertise to care for the underlying gastrointestinal disease and to provide HPN support. Most of the recommendations were graded as GPP, but almost all received a strong consensus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is little consensus on the medical management of gastroparesis, a disorder characterized by delayed gastric emptying with symptoms of early satiety, nausea, vomiting, and upper abdominal pain. GOALS We utilized population-level data to: (1) describe the prevalence of different pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapies in patients with gastroparesis; and (2) trend the prevalence of these therapies from 2010 to 2020. STUDY More than 59 million unique medical records across 26 US-based major health care systems were surveyed using the Explorys platform to identify a cohort of adults with gastroparesis who completed both a gastric emptying study and upper endoscopy or upper gastrointestinal tract imaging. Prevalence of antiemetic, prokinetic, neuromodulator prescriptions, and surgical therapies for gastroparesis were searched within this cohort and trended annually from 2010 to 2020. RESULTS Antiemetics (72% of patients), prokinetics (47%), and neuromodulators (75% of patients, 44% of patients without a concomitant psychiatric or diabetic peripheral neuropathy diagnosis) were all commonly used in the treatment of patients with gastroparesis. From 2010 to 2020, there was an increase in the prevalence of antiemetic and neuromodulator prescriptions (36.4% to 57.6%, P <0.001 and 47.0% to 66.9%, P <0.001, respectively), whereas the prevalence of prokinetics remained relatively constant (31.8% to 31.6%, P =0.52). Procedural and surgical treatments were used in 5% of gastroparesis patients. CONCLUSIONS Treatments for gastroparesis have changed over the last decade: antiemetic and neuromodulator use has increased whereas prokinetic use has remained constant. This practice pattern may reflect the growing number and availability of antiemetics and neuromodulators and the small number and known side effects of prokinetics.

Abstract
Gastroparesis (GP) is a chronic disease characterized by upper gastrointestinal symptoms, primarily nausea and vomiting, and delayed gastric emptying (GE), in the absence of mechanical GI obstruction. The underlying pathophysiology of GP remains unclear, but factors contributing to the condition include vagal nerve dysfunction, impaired gastric fundic accommodation, antral hypomotility, gastric dysrhythmias, and pyloric dysfunction. Currently, gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) is considered the gold standard for GP diagnosis. However, the overall delay in GE weakly correlates with GP symptoms and their severity. Recent research efforts have focused on developing treatments that address the presumed underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of GP, such as pyloric hypertonicity, with Gastric Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (G-POEM) one of these procedures. New promising diagnostic tools for gastroparesis include wireless motility capsule (WMC), the 13 carbon-GE breath test, high-resolution electrogastrography, and the Endoluminal Functional Lumen Imaging Probe (EndoFLIP). Some of these tools assess alterations beyond GE, such as muscular electrical activity and pyloric tone. These modalities have the potential to characterize the pathophysiology of gastroparesis, identifying patients who may benefit from targeted therapies. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the current knowledge on diagnostic pathways in GP, with a focus on the association between diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This meta-analysis aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy of acupuncture in treating postsurgical gastroparesis syndrome (PGS) after thoracic or abdominal surgery. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES Twelve databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Medline (Ovid) (from 1946), Web of Science, EBSCO, Scopus, Open Grey, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, Chinese Scientific Journals Database (VIP) and China Biology Medicine disc (CBM)) and three registration websites (WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP), ClinicalTrials.gov, and Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR)) were searched from the inception to September 2022, and citations of the included literature were screened. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA All randomised controlled trials addressing invasive acupuncture for PGS. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS Key information on the included studies was extracted by two reviewers independently. Risk ratio (RR) with 95% CI was used for categorical data, and mean difference with 95% CI for continuous data. The quality of evidence was assessed using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. Outcomes were conducted with trial sequential analysis (TSA). RESULTS Fifteen studies with 759 patients met the inclusion criteria. Subgroup analyses revealed that compared with the drug group, the drug and acupuncture group had a greater positive effect on the total effective rate (TER) (nine trials, n=427; RR=1.20; 95% CI 1.08 to 1.32; P-heterogeneity=0.20, I2=28%, p=0.0004) and the recovery rate (RCR) (six trials, n = 294; RR = 1.61; 95% CI 1.30 to 1.98; P-heterogeneity=0.29, I2=19%, p<0.0001) of PGS after abdominal surgery. However, acupuncture showed no significant advantages in terms of the TER after thoracic surgery (one trial, p=0.13) or thoracic/abdominal surgery-related PGS (two trials, n = 115; RR=1.18; 95% CI 0.89 to 1.57; P-heterogeneity=0.08, I2=67%, p=0.24) and the RCR after thoracic/abdominal surgery (two trials, n=115; RR=1.40; 95% CI 0.97 to 2.01; P-heterogeneity=0.96, I2=0%, p=0.07). The quality of evidence for TER and RCR was moderate certainty. Only one study reported an acupuncture-related adverse event, in the form of mild local subcutaneous haemorrhage and pain that recovered spontaneously. TSA indicated that outcomes reached a necessary effect size except for clinical symptom score. CONCLUSION Based on subgroup analysis, compared with the drug treatment, acupuncture combined drug has significant advantages in the treatment of PGS associated with abdominal surgery, but not with thoracic surgery.

Abstract
Gastroparesis (GP), a historically vexing disorder characterized by symptoms of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, early satiety, and/or bloating, in the setting of an objective delay in gastric emptying, is often difficult to treat and carries a tremendous burden on the quality of patients' lives, as well as the healthcare system in general. Though the etiology of GP has been fairly well defined, much work has been done recently to better understand the pathophysiology of GP, as well as to identify novel effective and safe treatment options. As our understanding of GP has evolved, many myths and misconceptions still abound in this rapidly changing field. The goal of this review is to identify myths and misconceptions regarding the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of GP, in the context of the latest research findings which have shaped our current understanding of GP. Recognition and dispelling of such myths and misconceptions is critical to moving the field forward and ultimately advancing the clinical management of what will hopefully become a better understood and more manageable disorder in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastroparesis is a complex, challenging gastrointestinal disorder presenting with upper gastrointestinal symptoms, especially nausea and vomiting, with significant impact on patients' quality of life. After ruling out mechanical obstruction, it is essential to identify delay in gastric emptying for definitive diagnosis. The most common causes are idiopathic (no identified etiology), diabetes mellitus, and postsurgical status. Management of gastroparesis focuses on dietary modifications and treatment directed to symptom relief. Unfortunately, approximately one-third of patients are refractory to pharmacological therapy, and the effectiveness of the few nonpharmacological options has been questioned. PURPOSE Extensive review of the literature identifies several uncertainties or controversies regarding the differential diagnosis based on the spectrum of symptoms, the lack of availability of reliable diagnostic test, and questions regarding effective therapeutic options. In this review, we discuss ten controversies regarding gastroparesis: clinical presentation, diagnosis, overlap syndromes, pathophysiology, etiology, as well as pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapeutic options. In addition, we briefly review studies exploring pathological, inflammatory, and molecular disturbances affecting the intrinsic neuromuscular elements that may be involved in the pathophysiology of gastroparesis and may constitute possible therapeutic targets in the future. Finally, we tabulate future research opportunities to resolve these controversies in the management of patients with gastroparesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hypersalivation is one of the most prevalent and distressing adverse effects associated with clozapine treatment. Currently, there is no standard therapeutic approach toward how to overcome it. Clinicians use various medications for managing this adverse effect. However, some of the agents are not effective enough, whereas others can induce other adverse effects. Recently, several reviews have been published on the treatment of clozapine-associated hypersalivation, in which the focus was on drugs from various pharmacological groups, and little attention was paid to drugs from the group of substituted benzamides. The intention of this brief narrative review is to draw the attention of clinicians to the use of the benzamide group for the treatment of this unpleasant adverse effect. METHODS A MEDLINE search was conducted to identify published treatment studies and case reports in the literature from 2000 to September 2021, concerning a treatment of clozapine-associated hypersalivation, mainly substituted benzamides. RESULTS Accumulating evidence during the last 2 decades indicates that agents derived from the benzamide group may be effective and safe agents for treatment of clozapine-associated hypersalivation. Whether with a psychotropic effect or without, medications from this group may produce a beneficial response. CONCLUSIONS Substitute benzamide derivatives have emerged as effective and well-tolerated agents for treatment clozapine-associated hypersalivation.

Abstract
The manifestations of diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) are protean and clinically involve multiple systems, including the cardiovascular system, the gastrointestinal system, the genitourinary system as well as the sweat glands (sudomotor dysfunction) and the gallbladder. In addition, cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is associated with a correctible inability to appreciate and correct hypoglycaemia. While not a clinical problem, pupillary involvement should be the clue and the catalyst to investigate for other manifestations of DAN. This review outlines a practical approach to detecting and investigating the manifestations of DAN. Of particular importance is early detection of cardiovascular involvement where prompt therapy through glycaemic control can decrease the severity of CAN and decelerate the frequency and severity of retinopathy and nephropathy in addition to decreasing cardiovascular events and mortality. CAN also plays a role in accelerating other diabetic complications such as acute ischaemic stroke, heart failure, medial artery calcinosis, foot ulcers, peripheral artery disease and Charcot joints. Many therapies of DAN are available, which should not only decrease morbidity and mortality from DAN, but also improve the patient's quality of life. However, the therapies available are largely symptomatic.

Abstract
A 26-year-old Malaysian woman (childbearing age) attended a private primary care clinic with a known case of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and complained of persistent nausea and a few episodes of vomiting. She had no known drug allergy, no surgical history, no hospitalization in the last two years, was a non-smoker, and no history of drug or alcohol abuse. The patient was prescribed Tab metoclopramide 10 mg TDS and Tab ranitidine 150 mg BD for five days. About 30 min after oral administration of both medicines, her eyes rolled involuntary upward, leading to lateral deviation of the eyes, and mouth jaws clenched as if “dislocated jaws.” The patient was immediately brought into an emergency department (ED) of a public tertiary care hospital. A drug challenge test was done which resulted in the withdrawal of metoclopramide. The accompanied sister later disclosed that the patient had taken metoclopramide and ranitidine from a private clinic earlier in the day. The patient self-assumed to have a sudden seizure, due to excessive hot weather and dehydration. A slow intravenous infusion of 50 mg/mL diphenhydramine hydrochloride in 0.9% w/v NaCl 100 mL was administered stat. Consequently, the symptoms vanished after approximately 30 min of the therapy, devoid of relapse. The patient was discharged from ED post 8 hours of monitoring with complete recovery. Physicians frequently prescribe metoclopramide to treat nausea and vomiting, which may cause adverse drug reaction of acute dystonic oculogyric crisis (OGC). Due to its unwanted and unpredictable extrapyramidal symptoms, metoclopramide should be prescribed and dispensed with caution. Thorough history taking at ED is imperative for correct early diagnosis and treatment, as metoclopramide-induced dystonic OGC has a high probability of confusion with other causes of dystonia such as conversion and seizures, encephalitis, tetanus, and hypercalcemic tetany.

Abstract
RATIONALE Metoclopramide is commonly used to treat nausea and vomiting. However, long-term administration of metoclopramide is associated with various adverse effects, and its therapeutic effects are short-lasting. Hence, traditional East Asian medicine has received increasing attention as a short-term strategy for treating these symptoms. PATIENT CONCERNS The present report discusses the cases of a 71-year-old man and an 80-year-old woman diagnosed with cerebellar infarction. Both patients reported nausea and vomiting, which appeared during hospitalization following cerebellar infarction. DIAGNOSES One patient was diagnosed with a left cerebellar infarction and hemorrhagic transformation, while the other was diagnosed with a bilateral cerebellar infarction. INTERVENTIONS Both patients took Banhabaekchulcheonma-tang (BT) and Oryeong-san (OS) extracts. OUTCOMES The patient in Case 1 experienced a rapid decrease in nausea from day 5 of BT and OS administration, and metoclopramide was discontinued on day 7. The patient in Case 2 experienced a clear decrease in the number of vomiting episodes from day 6 of BT and OS administration and did not take metoclopramide thereafter. LESSONS Other than drugs used to mitigate symptoms, there are no suitable treatments available for nausea and vomiting caused by cerebellar infarction. In the present cases, nausea and vomiting remained unresolved even after 3 weeks of treatment with conventional therapies; however, these symptoms significantly improved after administration of the traditional East Asian herbal medicines BT and OS, and there were no recurrences. These cases demonstrate that traditional herbal medicine can reduce the side effects associated with long-term administration of metoclopramide and help patients resume their daily lifestyle. In addition, BT and OS treatment can facilitate administration of other drugs, highlighting its potential to aid in the treatment of stroke. Further research including relevant clinical trials is required to obtain more conclusive evidence.

Abstract
Third space endoscopy or submucosal endoscopy using a mucosal flap valve allows secure access to the submucosal and deeper layers of the gastrointestinal tract without the risk of a full-thickness perforation. This allows the performance of submucosal tunneling and myotomy for spastic segments of the gastrointestinal tract. Per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has been described for the treatment of achalasia cardia and other spastic esophageal disorders and is widely implemented. Endoscopic pyloromyotomy (G-POEM) has been performed for the treatment of refractory gastroparesis. Z-POEM for Zenker's diverticulum, D-POEM for epiphrenic diverticulum, and per-rectal endoscopic myotomy for treatment of Hirschsprung's disease are described..

Abstract
Gastroparesis, once regarded as a rare disease, is difficult to diagnose and challenging to treat; there were many breakthrough advances in the 2010s, shifting the paradigm of the understanding of this complex entity and its management. Similar to diabetes, its increasing prevalence reflects increased accessibility to diagnostic modalities and suggests that gastroparesis was underacknowledged in the past. Major developments in the three main aspects of the disease include the discovery of smooth muscle cells, interstitial cells of Cajal, PDGFRα+ cells syncytium, rather than interstitial cells of Cajal alone, as the main gastric pacemaker unit; the development of validated point-of-care diagnostic modalities such as a wireless motility capsule, the carbon 13-labeled breath test, and impedance planimetry; and the introduction of novel minimally invasive therapeutic options such as newer pharmacologic agents and gastric peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy. All aspects of these advances will be discussed further in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric per oral endoscopic esophageal myotomy (G-POEM) is a promising procedure to treat refractory gastroparesis. The safety profile of G-POEM is an important topic because gastroparesis is a functional pathology, with a procedure whose effectiveness is between 50 and 65% depending on the studies. OBJECTIVES We present this retrospective multicenter study, with the aim of establishing a safety profile, focusing on serious adverse events (AEs). DESIGN This was a multicenter observational cohort study conducted in five French expert centers. METHODS All patients who underwent G-POEM for refractory gastroparesis between 2015 and 2021 were included for analysis. AEs were classified into per endoscopic, early postoperative, and late postoperative, up to 1 month. Their severity was assessed using Dindo-Clavien and American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy classification. The primary objective was to evaluate the rate of G-POEM severe AEs. Secondary objectives were to document other postoperative AEs, and to identify predictive factors. RESULTS In all, 217 patients were included: 81 men and 136 women, mean age 52 ± 17 years. The average procedural time was 44 ± 14 min (12-78). The average hospital stay was 3.7 ± 2.3 days. The AEs rate classified as Clavien-Dindo ⩾3 was 0.4% (one delayed bleeding requiring blood transfusion and endoscopic management). There were no deaths or patients admitted to intensive care unit. The rates of mucosotomy and capnoperitoneum were 3.7 and 1.8%, respectively, without clinical consequences. Most patients (81.5%) did not experience any AE. Three cases of dumping syndrome occurred, quickly managed by dietary measures. CONCLUSION Our study confirms the safety of G-POEM with less than 0.5% of serious AEs, medically managed. This outcome makes this a procedure to have a good benefit-risk ratio.

Abstract
Gastroparesis is a functional gastrointestinal disorder that more commonly affects women, with most cases being diagnosed during childbearing age. However, there is a paucity of data and guidelines to specifically highlight the epidemiology, disease course, maternal and fetal impact, and the management of existing gastroparesis during pregnancy. Apart from metoclopramide, there is no approved therapy specifically indicated for gastroparesis. More importantly, pregnant and breastfeeding women are excluded from clinical trials evaluating pharmacologic agents in the management of gastroparesis. This poses a real challenge to healthcare providers in counseling and managing patients with gastroparesis. In this systematic review, we summarize the current available literature and the knowledge gaps in the impact of pregnancy on gastroparesis and vice versa. We also highlight the efficacy and safety profiles of available pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic therapies in the management of patients with gastroparesis, with emphasis on judicious use of dietary approaches that are deemed relatively safe during pregnancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) is used for refractory gastroparesis (RG) with good early-term but variable mid- and long-term outcomes. Limited data exist about candidates and long-term clinical and predictive factors. Our aim was to evaluate the 4-year follow-up efficacy and predictive factors in patients with RG. METHODS Confirmed RG patients were included and evaluated between April 2017 and December 2021. Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) score, retention percentage at 4 hours (RP4H), mean half-emptying time (MHET), and the 36-item short-form survey (SF-36) were performed at 1, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, and 48 months. RESULTS After G-POEM, 374 patients with RG were included: 141 patients (37.7%) had diabetic gastroparesis (DG), 115 (30.7%) had idiopathic gastroparesis (IG), 102 (27.3%) had postsurgical gastroparesis (PSG), and 16 (4.3%) had other etiologies. After the 48-month evaluation, 102 patients completed follow-up (DG, 58; IG, 22; PSG, 18; other, 4). Before G-POEM, GCSI score, RP4H, and MHET were 3.84 ± .53, 44% (interquartile range [IQR], 11-68), and 246 minutes (IQR, 150-368), respectively, and after the 48-month evaluation improved to 2.1 ± .70 (P < .001), 15.5% (IQR, 0-36; P = .021), and 135 minutes (IQR, 67-290; P = .045), respectively. At the 48-month evaluation, clinical success was 77.5%. DG showed the best outcomes (DG vs IG vs PSG vs other: 86.5% vs 72.5% [P = .001] vs 72.1% [P = .003] vs 68.8% [P < .001]). Long-term success predictors were DG (odds ratio [OR], 5.113; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.643-5.981; P = .035), early diagnosis (OR, 2.455; 95% CI, 1.129-3.522; P = .042), nausea/vomiting (OR, 3.541; 95% CI, 1.881-5.511; P = .012), GCSI score at 6 months (1.5-2) (OR, 3.612; 95% CI, 2.122-5.317; P = .022), and RP4H <10% at 6 months (OR, 2.188; 95% CI, 1.435-4.233; P = .039). CONCLUSIONS G-POEM is an effective 4-year treatment in patients with RG, especially in DG, establishing a potential first-line therapy in these patients. However, randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to confirm these results. (Clinical trial registration number: NTC03126513.).

Abstract
Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a rare and severe disease with a median survival of ∼3 years. Several risk factors have been identified, such as age, genetic predisposition, tobacco exposure, and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Prevalence of GERD in IPF is high and may affect 87% of patients, of whom only half (47%) report symptoms. Objective: The aim of this study is to review current evidence regarding the correlation between GERD and IPF and to evaluate the current studies regarding treatments for GERD-IPF. Methods: A review to identify research papers documenting an association between GERD and IPF was performed. Results: We identified several studies that have confirmed the association between GERD and IPF, with an increased acid exposure, risk of gastric aspiration and bile acids levels in these patients. Few studies focused their attention on GERD treatment, showing how antiacid therapy was not able to change IPF evolution. Conclusions: This review investigating the correlation between GERD and IPF has confirmed the hypothesized association. However, further large prospective studies are needed to corroborate and elucidate these findings with a focus on preventative and treatment strategies.

Abstract
Gastric emptying delay may be caused with both functional and anatomic derangements. Gastroparesis is suspected in patients presenting with certain foregut symptoms without anatomic obstruction. Data are still emerging regarding the best treatment of this condition. In cases where large paraesophageal hernias alter the upper gastrointestinal anatomy, it is difficult to know if gastroparesis also exists. Management of hiatal hernias is also still evolving, with various strategies to reduce recurrence being actively investigated. In this article, we present a systematic review of the existing literature around the management of gastroparesis and the management of paraesophageal hernias when they occur separately. In addition, since there are limited data to guide diagnosis and management of these conditions when they are suspected to coexist, we provide a rational strategy based on our own experience in patients with paraesophageal hernias who have symptoms or studies that raise suspicion for a coexisting functional disorder.

Abstract
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 the gastric outflow. This condition is increasingly encountered in clinical practice. These guidelines summarize perspectives on the risk factors, diagnosis, and management of gastroparesis in adults (including dietary, pharmacological, device, and interventions directed at the pylorus), and they represent the official practice recommendations of the American College of Gastroenterology. The scientific evidence for these guidelines was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation process. When the evidence was not appropriate for Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation, we used expert consensus to develop key concept statements. These guidelines should be considered as preferred but are not the only approaches to these conditions.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) prokinetic agents are drugs that increase GI motility and promote the movement of contents in the GI tract by amplifying and controlling the contraction of GI smooth muscle. Currently used prokinetics increase GI motility by acting as a dopamine D<sub>2</sub> receptor antagonist (e.g., metoclopramide, domperidone, levosulpiride) and 5-HT<sub>4</sub> receptor agonist (e.g., mosapride, prucalopride). Some prokinetics also have a cholinesterase inhibitory property (e.g., itopride), and herb-derived prokinetics (e.g., motilitone) affect multiple receptors. Depending on the type and distribution of receptors on which the prokinetics bind, the effect(s) may be regional or throughout the GI tract. Most prokinetics have been used for functional dyspepsia and gastroparesis because they mainly affect upper GI motility. However, prucalopride, a highly selective 5-HT<sub>4</sub> receptor agonist, is used primarily to treat chronic constipation and pseudo-obstruction. Dopamine D<sub>2</sub> receptor antagonists also inhibit the D<sub>2</sub> receptor in the medulla oblongata chemoreceptor trigger zone; therefore, they can treat nausea and vomiting. However, short term use of dopamine D<sub>2</sub> antagonists at an appropriate dose is recommended because of their potential for central nervous system side effects by penetrating the blood-brain barrier. It is necessary to know the mechanism of action, each clinical trial’s characteristics, and the side effects of prokinetics to obtain the best clinical outcomes. This article aims to summarize the results of clinical studies related to the impact of currently available prokinetic agents in Korea on GI motility.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The aim of this review is to aid in choosing safe options when assessing potential risks of acute migraine treatments based on known mechanisms of action and anticipated safety concerns. RECENT FINDINGS Part 1 highlights safety issues associated with commonly used medications to treat acute migraine attacks. Strategies to mitigate cardiovascular and gastrointestinal risks of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, evaluation of cardiovascular risks of triptan and ergot alkaloids, and precautions with use of antiemetics and the novel drugs gepants and ditans are discussed to help practitioners in clinical decision-making. When available, we included recommendations from professional societies and data from pharmacovigilance systems. While guidelines on efficacy are available, one must also consider the possible risks and adverse effects of a drug when creating treatment plans.

Evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of trazpiroben (TAK-906) in the presence and absence of the proton pump inhibitor esomeprazole. Clin Transl Sci 2022; 15:1281-1290. [PMID: 35218604 PMCID: PMC9099131 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Trazpiroben, a dopamine D2 /D3 receptor antagonist under development to treat gastroparesis, displays decreasing solubility with increasing pH. This single-sequence, open-label, two-period, crossover study evaluated the effect of esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor that raises gastric pH, on the single-dose pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of trazpiroben in healthy adults (NCT03849690). In total, 12 participants were enrolled and entered period 1 (days 1-3), receiving a single oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg on day 1. After a 4-day washout, participants then entered period 2 (days 8-13) and received esomeprazole 40 mg once daily on days 8-12, with a single oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg co-administered 1 h post esomeprazole dosing on day 11. Geometric mean area under the curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞ ) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) values were generally similar when trazpiroben was administered alone versus alongside esomeprazole (AUC∞ , 44.03 vs. 38.85 ng h/ml; Cmax , 19.76 vs. 17.24 ng/ml). Additionally, the associated geometric mean ratio (GMR; co-administration: administration alone) 90% confidence intervals (CIs) suggested no clinically meaningful difference between treatment groups (AUC∞ , GMR 0.88, 90% CI 0.78-1.00; Cmax , 0.87, 90% CI 0.70-1.09). Mean apparent first-order terminal elimination half-life values were similar between treatments, illustrating co-administration with esomeprazole had minimal effect on trazpiroben elimination. Trazpiroben was well-tolerated in healthy adults following administration alone and alongside esomeprazole, with no clinically relevant adverse events reported. The lack of evidence of any clinically meaningful drug-drug interaction supports the co-administration of esomeprazole with trazpiroben.

Abstract
Trazpiroben is a dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist under development for the treatment of gastroparesis. This phase I, open‐label, randomized, two‐way crossover study (NCT04121078) evaluated the effect of single‐dose intravenous rifampin, a potent inhibitor of the organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1B1 and 1B3, on the pharmacokinetics and safety of trazpiroben in healthy adults. The utility of coproporphyrin (CP) I and CPIII as biomarkers of OATP inhibition was also assessed. Overall, 12 participants were enrolled and randomized (1:1) into one of two treatment sequences (AB and BA). Participants received either a single oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg (treatment A) or a single oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg immediately after a single 30‐min intravenous infusion of rifampin 600 mg (treatment B). After a washout period of at least 7 days, participants received the other treatment. Geometric mean area under the curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞) and maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of plasma trazpiroben were higher in participants receiving treatment B than those receiving treatment A (AUC∞, 168.5 vs. 32.68 ng*h/ml; Cmax, 89.62 vs. 14.37 ng/ml); corresponding geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) showed 5.16 (4.25–6.25) and 6.24 (4.62–8.42)‐fold increases in these parameters, respectively. In this study, trazpiroben was confirmed as a substrate of OATP1B1/1B3, and therefore co‐administration of trazpiroben with moderate to strong inhibitors of OATP1B1/1B3 is not recommended. This is also the first assessment of the utility of CPI and CPIII as endogenous biomarkers of OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition after a single intravenous dose of rifampin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to explore the long-term effectiveness and tolerability of metoclopramide in the treatment of CIH. METHOD This study is a retrospective, observational cohort study of patients prescribed metoclopramide for CIH at the South London & Maudsley (SLaM) NHS Foundation Trust. RESULTS Of the 96 patients identified, 14 patients were eligible for inclusion in our study. Five patients continued treatment with a mean duration of 27 months (SD = 17.8), and one patient continued until transfer with a duration of 3 months. Eight patients discontinued treatment after a mean duration of 8 months. CONCLUSION Metoclopramide may be an effective and tolerated drug in CIH, but more data is required to establish its place in the pharmacotherapy of this condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the antidiarrheal potential of the aqueous extract (AECR) and hydroalcoholic extract of Campomanesia reitziana leaves (HECR), its ethyl acetate (EAF) and dichloromethane fractions (DCMF), and myricitrin isolated from EAF. METHODS The total phenols and flavonoids were measured, followed by chromatography and myricitrin isolation. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl scavenger activity, the cytotoxicity, and the effects on LPS-induced nitrite production in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-6) were quantified. The effect of HECR, EAF, DCMF, and AECR on intestinal motility (IT), gastric emptying (GE), and castor oil-induced diarrhea in mice was determined, as well as its antimicrobial activity. KEY RESULTS The administration of AECR 10% (10 ml/kg, p.o), but not HECR (300 mg/kg), reduced the GE and IT by 52 and 51%. The EAF and DCMF at 300 mg/kg also reduced IT but did not change GE. Moreover, AECR and EAF, but not DCMF, inhibited the castor oil-induced diarrhea and naloxone or metoclopramide pretreatment did not change these effects. Myricitrin did not change IT and the evacuation index of mice. Finally, the dry residue of AECR inhibited bacterial growth and EAF showed bacteriostatic activity against S. aureus, E. coli, and S. typhimurium and antifungal for C. albicans. However, none of the preparations alter the viability of Giardia spp. trophozoites. CONCLUSIONS The AECR and EAF can be effective to treat diarrhea acting through opioid- or dopaminergic type 2 receptor-independent mechanisms and by its antimicrobial actions.

Abstract
Gastroparesis is a chronic disease of the stomach that causes a delayed gastric emptying, without the presence of a stenosis. For 30 years the authors identified pylorospasm as one of the most important pathophysiological mechanisms determining gastroparesis. Studies with EndoFLIP, a device that assesses pyloric distensibility, increased the knowledge about pylorospasm. Based on this data, several pyloric-targeted therapies were developed to treat refractory gastroparesis: Surgical pyloroplasty and endoscopic approach, such as pyloric injection of botulinum and pyloric stenting. Notwithstanding, the success of most of these techniques is still not complete. In 2013, the first human gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (GPOEM) was performed. It was inspired by the POEM technique, with a similar dissection method, that allows pyloromyotomy. Therapeutical results of GPOEM are similar to surgical approach in term of clinical success, adverse events and post-surgical pain. In the last 8 years GPOEM has gained the attention of the scientific community, as a minimally invasive technique with high rate of clinical success, quickly prevailing as a promising therapy for gastroparesis. Not surprisingly, in referral centers, its technical success rate is 100%. One of the main goals of recent studies is to identify those patients that will respond better to the therapies targeted on pylorus and to choose the better approach for each patient.

Abstract
Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) have been re-named as disorders of gut-brain interactions. These conditions are not only common in clinical practice, but also in the community. In reference to the Rome IV criteria, the most common FGIDs, include functional dyspepsia (FD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Additionally, there is substantial overlap of these disorders and other specific gastrointestinal motility disorders, such as gastroparesis. These disorders are heterogeneous and are intertwined with several proposed pathophysiological mechanisms, such as altered gut motility, intestinal barrier dysfunction, gut immune dysfunction, visceral hypersensitivity, altered GI secretion, presence and degree of bile acid malabsorption, microbial dysbiosis, and alterations to the gut-brain axis. The treatment options currently available include lifestyle modifications, dietary and gut microbiota manipulation interventions including fecal microbiota transplantation, prokinetics, antispasmodics, laxatives, and centrally and peripherally acting neuromodulators. However, treatment that targets the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the symptoms are scanty. Pharmacological agents that are developed based on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying pathologies of these disorders might provide the best avenue for future pharmaceutical development. The currently available therapies lack long-term effectiveness and safety for their use to treat motility disorders and FGIDs. Furthermore, the fundamental challenges in treating these disorders should be defined; for instance, 1. Cause and effect cannot be disentangled between symptoms and pathophysiological mechanisms due to current therapies that entail the off-label use of medications to treat symptoms. 2. Despite the knowledge that the microbiota in our gut plays an essential part in maintaining gut health, their exact functions in gut homeostasis are still unclear. What constitutes a healthy microbiome and further, the precise definition of gut microbial dysbiosis is lacking. More comprehensive, large-scale, and longitudinal studies utilizing multi-omics data are needed to dissect the exact contribution of gut microbial alterations in disease pathogenesis. Accordingly, we review the current treatment options, clinical insight on pathophysiology, therapeutic modalities, current challenges, and therapeutic clues for the clinical care and management of functional dyspepsia, gastroparesis, irritable bowel syndrome, functional constipation, and functional diarrhea.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) continues to be among the most common diseases seen by gastroenterologists, surgeons, and primary care physicians. Our understanding of the varied presentations of GERD, enhancements in diagnostic testing, and approach to patient management have evolved. During this time, scrutiny of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has increased considerably. Although PPIs remain the medical treatment of choice for GERD, multiple publications have raised questions about adverse events, raising doubts about the safety of long-term use and increasing concern about overprescribing of PPIs. New data regarding the potential for surgical and endoscopic interventions have emerged. In this new document, we provide updated, evidence-based recommendations and practical guidance for the evaluation and management of GERD, including pharmacologic, lifestyle, surgical, and endoscopic management. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system was used to evaluate the evidence and the strength of recommendations. Key concepts and suggestions that as of this writing do not have sufficient evidence to grade are also provided.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a movement disorder that can develop with the use of dopamine receptor-blocking agents and is most commonly caused by antipsychotics. The use of antipsychotics is expanding, which may lead to an increased number of patients experiencing TD. To summarise the current knowledge of the epidemiology and risk factors for TD in Japan, we reviewed articles related to the current state of knowledge around TD identified through a PubMed search, and held a roundtable discussion of experts in Japan on 9 September 2021 to form the basis of the opinion presented within this review. The true prevalence of TD among patients treated with antipsychotics is not well characterised; it is reported to be between 15% and 50% globally and between 6.5% and 7.7% in Japan. Potential barriers to timely treatment of TD include the stigma surrounding mental health issues and the lack of data regarding TD in Asian patients. This review summarises the current knowledge of the epidemiology, challenges to TD diagnosis and risk factors for TD in Japan. Recent strategies for symptom monitoring and early diagnosis, as well as consensus recommendations are included. Achieving a high level of awareness of TD among physicians who treat patients with psychiatric disorders is of great importance and physicians should ensure that patients with psychiatric disorders receiving antipsychotics are proactively monitored for signs of TD.

Abstract
Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a rare but debilitating and severe form of gastrointestinal dysmotility. The diagnosis is often made very late in the disease course due to its rarity and complexity. Treatment is mainly supportive, as there is no definitive cure. Pharmacologic therapy comprises prokinetics, antibiotics for bacterial overgrowth and pain management. Pain can also be alleviated with intestinal decompression in selected cases. Beside the pharmacologic therapy, nutrition and fluid replacement play a key role. Rarely, intestinal transplantation is necessary in patients with CIPO and intestinal failure. In this review, we describe an advanced CIPO case and provide an update of the clinical and diagnostic features and current management strategies. The goal of our review is to raise awareness around CIPO and to give practical guidance for the clinician.

Abstract
Acute dystonic reactions are the most prevalent extrapyramidal adverse effects associated with metoclopramide. It could be mistaken for a variety of other conditions, such as seizures, tetanus, and encephalitis, to name a few possibilities. We present a case of a 26-year-old female misdiagnosed as having an epileptic seizure who was rushed to the emergency unit with an involuntary bilateral upward deviation of the eyes, spasm, stiffness, lateral deviation of the neck, and protrusion of the tongue. Symptoms occurred 36 hours after the commencement of metoclopramide, used to treat nausea and vomiting in the referring hospital. All the laboratory work was normal. The drug was discontinued and 5 mg of intravenous biperiden was administered. The symptoms subsided in about 10 minutes with no recurrence. Metoclopramide-induced acute dystonia not only creates an anxious environment for patients but may also be life-threatening. Due to the high probability of misdiagnosis, detailed drug history and a high index of suspicion are critical in making the correct diagnosis.

Abstract
Trazpiroben (TAK‐906) is a peripherally selective dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist being developed to treat chronic gastroparesis. This phase I, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, single‐ and multiple‐ascending dose, parallel‐group study evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of trazpiroben in healthy Japanese men. Findings were compared with those from a prior US trial in healthy individuals. Overall, 24 participants were enrolled into 3 cohorts (each n = 8). Per cohort, 6 participants received trazpiroben (cohort 1, 50 mg; 2, 100 mg; 3, 10 mg) once on day 1 and twice daily on days 3 through 7, and two received placebo. Trazpiroben was well tolerated, with no clinically meaningful adverse events observed. Following single‐ and multiple‐dose administration, trazpiroben was rapidly absorbed and eliminated (mean elimination half‐life, 1.89‐6.45 hours; median time to maximum serum concentration [steady state], 1.00‐1.25 hours). Serum prolactin increased with trazpiroben treatment (mean maximum serum concentration 93.32 ng/mL [10 mg] vs. 10.83 ng/mL [placebo]), illustrating receptor target engagement. Results reflected those from healthy US participants, indicating a lack of differences between these ethnic populations in trazpiroben disposition and safety profile. Trazpiroben may represent a promising therapy for chronic gastroparesis across different populations, with further evaluation ongoing in a phase IIb study (NCT03544229).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is more frequent in premature infants. Metoclopramide was introduced routinely in premature babies followed in ambulatory care by the Colombian Kangaroo Mother Care program (KMCP), based on a 2004 Cochrane review. AIM Because of the recent controversy on the use of metoclopramide in children, this study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of metoclopramide given as GER disease (GERD) prophylaxis. METHODS A randomized clinical trial was conducted between April 2017 and January 2019 in 466 premature infants discharged home and followed at a KMCP. Double-blind allocation to metoclopramide versus placebo was performed, 0.2 mg/kg three times daily, administered 15 min before feeding, up to term. Exclusion criteria were oxygen dependency, any perinatal neurological problem or parent's participation refusal. The incidence of GERD symptoms and adverse events that could be associated with the use of metoclopramide were recorded by parents weekly (e.g., emesis, cyanosis or apnea, post-prandial crying episodes, extrapyramidal symptoms, tremor, and drowsiness). RESULTS A total of 466 subjects were recruited, most of them late preterm. The groups' baseline characteristics were similar. Median duration of the intervention was approximately 3 weeks, at which time most patients were at term. In the longitudinal mixed effects analysis, we did not find clinically significant differences in GERD-related symptoms between groups, either in minor or severe side effects. CONCLUSION Results show absence of effectiveness in the systematic use of metoclopramide as prophylaxis of GERD symptoms in premature infants. Additionally, no adverse effects attributable to the drug were found. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02907632; September 20, 2016. Retrospectively registered.

Abstract
Metoclopramide is a dopamine D2-receptor blocking agent commonly used to treat nausea, vomiting, and gastroparesis. Due to their mechanism of action, these drugs can lead to extrapyramidal side effects such as tardive dyskinesia. In this article, we report a case of a nulliparous gynecology patient who developed dyskinetic movements after intraoperative administration of metoclopramide. During further workup after stabilization, she was found to have several risk factors for tardive dyskinesia. As the occurrence of this phenomenon is somewhat rare, this case report aims to discuss the condition, associated risk factors, and differentiation from other diagnoses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurately diagnosing gastroparesis relies upon gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) being performed correctly. Jointly published protocol guidelines have long been available; however, the extent to which practitioners adhere to these guidelines is unknown. AIMS This study aimed to assess national compliance with established GES protocol guidelines. METHODS We developed a questionnaire addressing the key protocol measures outlined in the Consensus Recommendations for Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy. Survey questions addressed patient information collection (15), patient preparation and procedure protocol (16), meal content and preparation (7), imaging (3), interpretation (4), reporting (7), and institutional demographic data (7). The anonymous questionnaire was distributed electronically to members of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Medical Imaging (SNMMI) and non-member recipients of the SNMMI daily email newsletter. One response per medical institution was permitted. RESULTS A total of 121 out of 872 potential medical institutions (MI) responded (13.9%); 49 (40.4%) were academic/teaching medical centers. The annual number (mean) of GES procedures was 199.9 (range 5-2000 GES/year). On average, MI performed 33.5/52 (64%) of protocol measures according to guidelines while academic medical centers performed 31.5/52 (61%) of protocol measures according to guidelines. Only 4 out of 88 MI (4.5%) performed GES while adhering to three critical measures: validated study duration; controlled blood glucose levels; and proper restriction of medications. CONCLUSIONS Low compliance with GES protocol guidelines, even among academic medical centers, raises the likely possibility of misdiagnosis and improper management of upper gastrointestinal symptoms. These results highlight a need for increased awareness of protocol guidelines for gastric scintigraphy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After lung transplantation (LT), gastroparesis is frequent, occurring in 25-63% of cases and leading to pulmonary infections. In refractory disease, classical management has demonstrated limited efficacy. Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) is a recently developed safe and effective procedure that has been performed here on five patients with severe post-LT gastroparesis. METHODS In all patients, the diagnosis was confirmed by disturbed gastric emptying scintigraphy and GCSI calculation showing severe disease. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopies confirmed the absence of organic lesions. All patients were informed about the procedure and signed informed consent forms. The procedure consisted of performing an endoscopic pyloromyotomy under general anesthesia. RESULTS The patients were between 35 and 64 years of age. Four had chronic disease, starting approximately 1 year following LT, and one had acute, severe gastroparesis requiring intubation in the intensive care unit. All patients underwent G-POEM after failure of medical treatment, without any complications. Three of the patients with chronic disease improved; they resumed a normal diet and gained weight. The patient with acute disease was discharged within a few days following the procedure and resumed oral intake. CONCLUSION G-POEM is promising for managing post-LT refractory gastroparesis and should be further evaluated.

Abstract
Purpose Treatment options for gastroparesis, such as metoclopramide and domperidone, are limited because of safety concerns, which may be exacerbated in the presence of inhibitors of drug metabolism. This study evaluated the effect of itraconazole on the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of trazpiroben (previously TAK-906), a novel, peripherally selective D2/D3 dopamine receptor antagonist. Methods This was a phase 1, two-period, crossover trial in healthy participants (NCT03161405). On day 1, period 1 (days 1–3), participants received a single oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg. During period 2 (days 4–9), participants received oral itraconazole 200 mg once daily (days 1–5) and one oral dose of trazpiroben 25 mg post itraconazole on day 4. Trazpiroben pharmacokinetics were assessed. Safety assessments included triplicate electrocardiograms. Results Twelve healthy males (24–45 years old) were studied. Co-administration of itraconazole increased trazpiroben area under the concentration–time curve from time 0 to infinity by 1.28-fold (90% confidence interval: 1.10, 1.49) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) by 1.98-fold (1.64, 2.39) versus trazpiroben alone. Placebo-corrected, change from baseline in corrected QT interval at the observed geometric mean Cmax for trazpiroben alone (9.53 ng/mL) and with itraconazole (18.00 ng/mL) was estimated at 1.31 ms (−0.39, 3.01) and 1.54 ms (−0.15, 3.24), respectively. There were no clinically relevant abnormalities in any safety parameters. Conclusion These results indicate that TAK‑906 is relatively insensitive to inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4, and cardiovascular safety concerns associated with domperidone are unlikely to be elicited by trazpiroben under similar conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prescribing cascades are a source of inappropriate prescribing for older adults with dementia. We aimed to study three prescribing cascades in older Nova Scotians with dementia using administrative databases. METHODS Cohort entry for Nova Scotia Seniors' Pharmacare Program beneficiaries was the date of dementia diagnosis. Prescription drug dispensing data was extracted for inciting medication and second treatment (cholinesterase inhibitor and bladder anticholinergic, metoclopramide and Parkinson's disease medication, or calcium channel blocker (CCB) and diuretic) over the six-year period April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2015. In three separate analyses, dispensing an inciting medication signaled a look back of 365 days from the date of first dispensing to confirm that the second treatment was started after the inciting medication. The prescribing cascade was considered when the second treatment was started within 180 days of the inciting treatment. Sex differences in the prescribing cascade were tested using t-tests or chi square tests as appropriate. Both univariate (unadjusted) and multivariate (adjusted) logistic regression (adjusted for age, rurality, and sex) and Cox proportional hazards regression was used to identify risk factors for the prescribing cascade. RESULTS From March 1, 2005 to March 31, 2015, 28,953 Nova Scotia Seniors' Pharmacare beneficiaries with dementia (NSSPBD) were identified. There were 60 cases of bladder anticholinergics following cholinesterase inhibitors, 11 cases of Parkinson's disease medication following metoclopramide, and 289 cases of a diuretic following CCB in the cohort. Regression analysis demonstrated that risk of bladder anticholinergics following cholinesterase inhibitors and diuretics following CCBs were associated with female sex. Cox regression suggested that bladder anticholinergics were less often used by those on cholinesterase inhibitors and did not identify CCB use as leading more frequently to diuretic use. CONCLUSIONS The combination of diuretics following CCB was the most common prescribing cascade and bladder anticholinergics following cholinesterase inhibitors the second most common. However, exposure to the inciting medications did not increase risk of exposure to the second treatments. Combinations of bladder anticholinergics following cholinesterase inhibitors and diuretics following CCBs were more common for women raising concern that women may be at increased risk of these prescribing cascades.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The emerging gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) is becoming an alternative treatment method for gastroparesis. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of G-POEM for gastroparesis. METHODS Relevant publications were identified through searching PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science before April 1, 2019. Studies presenting the clinical data of G-POEM for the treatment of gastroparesis were included. Data about effectiveness and safety were extracted, pooled, and analyzed. Forest plots were graphed based on random effects models. RESULTS A total of 272 patients representing 8 studies were eligible for analysis. The pooled rates of GCSI at preprocedure, 1-3 months, 6 months, and 12 months, were 3.25 (95% CI, 2.75-3.75), 1.80 (95% CI, 1.10-2.49), 1.56 (95% CI, 0.45-2.68), and 1.10 (95% CI, 0.75-1.45), respectively. The pooled results of 4-h GES pre- and post-G-POEM were 41.89% (95% CI, 32.75-51.03%) and 16.48% (95% CI, 9.83-23.14%), respectively. Furthermore, the pooled clinical response rate was 84% (95% CI, 77-89%). The GES improvement rate and GES normal rate were also analyzed, and the results were 84% (95% CI, 77-90%) and 53% (95% CI, 39-66%), respectively. Finally, the pooled adverse events rate was 12% (95% CI, 6-19%). CONCLUSIONS G-POEM was shown to be feasible and safe for the treatment of gastroparesis with various etiologies, which could be a potential first-line therapy for certain patients. Future studies are needed to investigate the appropriate patients for G-POEM to explore the "most beneficial" subgroup of patients.

Abstract
Gastroparesis is a syndrome characterised by delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Symptoms can include early satiety, abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting and regurgitation which cause significant morbidity in addition to nutritional deficits. There is a higher prevalence in diabetics and females, but the incidence in the Australian population has not been well studied. Management of gastroparesis involves investigating and correcting nutritional deficits, optimising glycaemic control and improving gastrointestinal motility. Symptom control in gastroparesis can be challenging. Nutritional deficits should be addressed initially through dietary modification. Enteral feeding is a second-line option when oral intake is insufficient. Home parenteral nutrition is rarely used, and only accessible through specialised clinics in the outpatient setting. Prokinetic medication classes that have been used include dopamine receptor antagonists, motilin receptor agonists, 5-HT4 receptor agonists and ghrelin receptor agonists. Anti-emetic agents are often used for symptom control. Interventional treatments include gastric electrical stimulation, gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy, feeding jejunostomy and gastrostomy/jejunstomy for gastric venting and enteral feeding. In this article we propose a framework to manage gastroparesis in Australia based on current evidence and available therapies.

The efficacy and safety of itopride in feeding intolerance of critically ill patients receiving enteral nutrition: a randomized, double-blind study. BMC Gastroenterol 2021; 21:126. [PMID: 33740892 PMCID: PMC7976729 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-021-01712-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) is a frequent problem in the Intensive care unit (ICU) and is associated with poor clinical outcomes leading to worse prognosis in terms of mortality and ICU stay. Nowadays, prokinetic drugs are the mainstay of therapy in EFI. However, available prokinetics have uncertain efficacy and safety profiles. Itopride, is a prokinetic agent which is different and unique from the available prokinetics because of its dual mode of action as well as its tolerability and safety. The current study compared the efficacy and safety of Itopride against metoclopramide for EFI in critically ill patients. Moreover, it tested the utility and applicability of ultrasonography to measure gastric residual volume (GRV) in this population. METHODS This randomized, double-blind study included 76 EFI patients who were randomly assigned to either Itopride or metoclopramide group. The primary outcome was to measure GRV by ultrasonography. Secondary outcomes included the percentage ratio of enteral feed volume, energy and protein received by patients over 7 days of treatment, ICU length of stay, safety parameters and occurrence of infectious complications or vomiting. RESULTS Thirty-five patients of each group completed the study. At day 7, itopride significantly decreased GRV compared with metoclopramide group (p = 0.001). Moreover, there was a significant increase in the ratios of received enteral nutrition feed volume, calories, and protein after the one-week therapy in the itopride group more than the metoclopramide group (p = 0.001), (p = 0.002), (p = 0.01), respectively and there were no differences in any secondary outcomes or adverse events between the two groups. CONCLUSION In critically ill patients with EFI, itopride was well tolerated with superior efficacy to metoclopramide. In addition, we demonstrated that ultrasonography is a simple, non-invasive, inexpensive, and undemanding method for GRV measurements and can offer reliable assessments in the gastric emptying modality. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was registered in ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03698292). Date: October 5, 2018.
