ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Functional nausea and vomiting syndromes and gastroparesis, collectively grouped as nausea and vomiting syndromes (NVS), are overlapping conditions with incompletely understood pathophysiology. Gastric slow wave abnormalities are thought to contribute.AIMS:
This study aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the prevalence of slow wave abnormalities measured by electrogastrography (EGG) in patients with NVS.METHODS:
MEDLINE, EMBASE, EMBASE classic, and CENTRAL databases were systematically searched for articles using EGG in adults (≥ 18 years) with NVS. EGG metrics of interest were percentage time in bradygastria, normogastria, and tachygastria as well as dominant frequency and dominant power. Outcomes were also compared with functional dyspepsia (FD), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD), and control cohorts.RESULTS:
Seven hundred and sixty NVS patients and 308 controls were included from 24 studies. Overall, 64% of patients had EGG abnormalities. Average percent time in normogastria was low during fasting (50%; 95% CI 40-63%) and fed (53%; 95% CI 41-68%) states in patients, with substantial periods in fasting bradygastria (34.1%; 95% CI 25-47%) and postprandial tachygastria (21%; 95% CI 17-26%). Across gastric disorders, pooling of 84 studies showed a comparably high prevalence of EGG abnormalities in NVS (24 studies; n = 760) and GORD (13 studies; n = 427), compared to FD (47 studies; n = 1751) and controls (45 studies; n = 1027).CONCLUSIONS:
Frequency-based gastric slow wave abnormalities are prominent in NVS. The strength and consistency of these associations across many studies suggests that gastric dysrhythmia may be an important factor in NVS, motivating the development of more reliable methods for their clinical assessment.Palavras-chave
