NCT05717205

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to explore the pathophysiology of diabetic gastroparesis by conducting an exploratory cohort study. Participants will be type 1 diabetes patients with and without gastroparesis. Investigators will investigate

  • Differences in nervefiber density and morphology
  • Cellular and transcriptional changes and indices of glucosemetabolism between groups

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • mucosal nerve length density (MNLD)

    differences in mucosal nerve length density (MNLD) of the gastric fundus and antrum in diabetes patients with and without gastroparesis. MNLD will be assessed by confocal microscopy of mucosal biopsies obtained by oesophago-gastro-duodenoscopy.

    24 months

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Nerve fibre morphology

    24 months

  • Differences in histology

    24 months

  • Transcriptional changes

    24 months

  • Differences in cell populations

    24 months

  • Differences in pyloric distensibility

    24 months

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

cases with gastroparesis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients with a gastroparesis symptom score index (GCSI) of \> 1.9 will be considered as cases with gastroparesis and will be subjected to technetium-scintigraphy and gastroscopy with tissuesamples from antrum and fundus and bloodsamples of glucosemetabolism

Diagnostic Test: technetium scitigraphy

Controls without gastroparesis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients with a gastroparesis symptom score index (GCSI) of \< 1.9 will be considered as controls without gastroparesis and will be subjected to technetium-scintigraphy and gastroscopy with tissuesamples from antrum and fundus and bloodsamples of glucosemetabolism

Diagnostic Test: technetium scitigraphy

Interventions

technetium scitigraphyDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

patients will have a technetium scintraphy confirming or ruling out gastroparesis. Then the patients will have a gastroscopy with tissue samples from antrum and fundus. During gastroscopy an endo-flip ballon will meassure the distensibility in pylorus.

Also known as: gastroscopy with tissuesamples

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Type 1 diabetes
  • age 18-85
  • Case group: Gastroparesis verified by technetium scintigraphy and a GCSI score ≥ 1.9
  • Control group: Gastroparesis not confirmed by technetium scintigraphy and score GCSI score \< 1.9

You may not qualify if:

  • Ongoing cancer treatment or other concurrent illness that will make the patient unable to attend the study on the discretion of the investigator.
  • Recent gastrointestinal surgery
  • Active duodenal/gastric ulcer disease,
  • Diseases in the ventricle or previously complicated upper abdominal surgery
  • Pregnancy or breast feeding
  • Persons who, in the judgement of the investigator, may be unable to follow the protocol.
  • Parkinson disease
  • metoclopramide 48 hours prior to scintigraphy
  • domperidone 48 hours prior to scintigraphy
  • macrolide antibiotics 48 hours prior to scintigraphy
  • anti-cholinergic agents
  • Tricycliv antidepressants
  • Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues
  • Lithium
  • Diphenhydramine
  • +7 more criteria
