Abstract
- Gastroparesis is an important complication of diabetes. Motility disorders are underdiagnosed and can lead to unexplained hypoglycemia. Currently diagnostic options are limited. All established methods harbor certain disadvantages. The 3D-MAGMA system is capable of reliably measuring gastric and small intestinal motility. The aim of the current study was to determine if 3D-MAGMA is able to detect changes in intestinal motility in people with type 2 diabetes. 18 healthy volunteers and 19 people with type 2 diabetes underwent motility testing by 3D-MAGMA. In the control group the retention time in the stomach was 33.0 [min] compared to 75.3 [min] in the diabetes group. The median time in the duodenum was 12.7 [min] compared to 8.1 [min]. The time for the first 50 cm of the jejunum was 29.9 [min] compared to 28.2 [min]. Discussion and conclusion: 3D-MAGMA is able to detect changes in intestinal motility. Its clinical value might be useful in patients with fluctuating blood glucose levels and unexplained hypoglycemic episodes.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.<br /> (Thieme.
