Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of acute retrograde gastric electrical stimulation (RGES) on gastric accommodation,emptying and gastrointestinal hormones releasing in obese patients. Methods Sixteen obese patients were examined. On the first day,a pair of mucosal gastric electrodes was placed under endoscope. The liquid meal load test and the standard solid meal gastric emptying test were carried out on the second day. RGES was performed starting at 30 minutes before each test and through the whole testing process. The serum leptin,ghrelin,resistin and peptide YY were examined before and after the standard solid meal gastric emptying test. On the third day,sham stimulation was given. The effect of acute RGES on related index was compared by self-control.Results BMI of the 16 patients was (32. 90±2. 99) kg/m2. Acute RGES significantly reduced the liquid meal volume of fullness [(460±148) ml and (630±219) ml,t=-7. 200,P＜0. 01] and the maximal tolerable meal volume [(699±215) ml and (926±295) ml,t=- 5. 390,P＜0. 01]. The effects of RGES and sham RGES on half-emptying time of standard solid meal was (109±26) min and (103±31) min (t=1. 009,P= 0. 329);on the retention rate of standard solid meal at one hour and two hour was (63. 37±9. 75)% and (59. 73±12.87)% (t=1. 834,P= 0. 087),(42.22±13.97)%and (38. 33±16. 87)% (t= 1.780,P= 0. 095),respectively. The ratio of gastrointestinal hormones after and before the stimulation also of the sham stimulation,leptin was 1. 03±0. 34 and 1. 08±0. 38(t=-0.386,P=0. 705),ghrelin was 0. 99±0. 11 and 0. 98±0. 12 (t= 0. 413,P=0.685),resistin was 1. 11±0. 25 and 0. 99±0. 24 (t= 1. 753,P= 0. 100),and peptide YY was 1. 56±0. 71 and 1. 33±0. 61 (t=1. 402,P= 0. 181). Conclusions In obese patients,acute RGES significantly reduce the liquid meal volume by lower gastric accommodation,to certain extent which will delay gastric emptying. There is no significant influence on gastrointestinal hormones releasing.
