Core Tip
Core tip: Antro-pyloro-duodenal manometry was performed in 15 healthy subjects. Subjects were randomly given 20 min intraduodenal infusions of glucose at 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 kcal/min. Intraduodenal glucose infusion acutely increased isolated pyloric pressure wave frequency and pyloric tone and decreased antral wave frequency in a dose-dependent fashion. A threshold for stimulation was observed at 1.0 kcal/min for pyloric phasic pressure waves and 1.5 kcal/min for pyloric tone and antral contractility. These data suggest that there is hierarchy for the activation of gastrointestinal motor responses to small intestinal glucose stimulation.
