ABSTRACT
Delayed gastric emptying occurs in up to 30% of patients with long-standing diabetes and causes significant morbidity. We performed a retrospective cohort study of 341 patients who had participated in a gastric emptying study from 2018 to 2021 in a large teaching hospital. Given the expected prevalence of gastroparesis in people with diabetes, there were fewer studies than anticipated, which could lead to gastroparesis underrecognition.

The association between malignancy and tumour-related sarcoid reaction is well documented, characterised by non-caseating granulomatous disease in haematological and solid malignancies. Its occurrence in colon cancer is rare and of unclear clinical significance. Herein, we present a case report of a 32-year-old woman diagnosed with concurrent metastatic sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma and pulmonary granulomatous disease suggestive of a tumour-related sarcoid reaction.
