Rapid initial gastric emptying and hypersensitivity to gastric filling in functional dyspepsia: Effects of duodenal lipids

Abstract

Patients with FD had abnormally rapid initial gastric emptying of water and hypersensitivity to gastric filling. Though normalizing gastric emptying rate and volumes, duodenal lipid exposure did not improve hypersensitivity. Rapid initial gastric emptying of water might be a sign of impaired distension-induced gastric accommodation.
