Gastroparesis is a disorder characterized by delayed gastric emptying of solid food in the
absence of a mechanical obstruction of the stomach, resulting in the cardinal symptoms of …

Background Gastric motility disorders, which include both functional and organic etiologies,
are highly prevalent. However, there remains a critical lack of objective biomarkers to guide …

Background Disorders of gastric function are highly prevalent, but diagnosis often remains
symptom‐based and inconclusive. Body surface gastric mapping is an emerging diagnostic …

Gastric peristalsis is critically dependent on an underlying electrical conduction system.
Recent years have witnessed substantial progress in clarifying the operations of this system …

Mathematical and computational modeling of the stomach is an emerging field of
biomechanics where several complex phenomena, such as gastric electrophysiology, fluid …

Gastric pacing and stimulation strategies were first proposed in the 1960s to treat motility
disorders. However, there has been relatively limited clinical translation of these techniques …

Objective. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) was considered mainly as a restrictive
procedure due to anatomic alterations in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, due to …

Background Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has become the most popular bariatric procedure
worldwide. However, SG is associated with de novo gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and …

Over the last two decades, high-resolution (HR) mapping has emerged as a powerful
technique to study normal and abnormal bioelectrical events in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract …

Objective: The use of electrical pacing in the gastrointestinal field continues to advance
clinical and basic science; however, the efficacy and effectiveness of gastric stimulation and …
