Gastroparesis: the chronic feeling of bloating, nausea & upper GI discomfort. With #GLP1 helping to boost the prevalence to 1-2% of the population, is it finally getting the attention it deserves? 🧵⬇️ #gisky #gastrosky #gastroparesis #IBD

Digital eHealth vs onsite 2-day IBS education: Digital program significantly ⬇️ symptom severity in 41% of pts & improved QoL, anxiety, depression. Both interventions scored high on client satisfaction. eHealth is a viable, for IBS self-management. #GutSky #GISky humanfactors.jmir.org/2025/1/e43618

#Gastroparesis Dx requires Sx like nausea/vomiting; asymptomatic cases excluded. N&V are key; bloating, pain less linked to severity. Overlaps with #FDyspepsia, but distinct patterns. QoL, mental health impacted. Weight loss not always present. #GutSky #GISky www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

🚨 New @AmerGastroAssn update! 🚨 Screening & surveillance are key for #gastric cancer prevention in high-risk U.S. groups. Endoscopy + H. pylori eradication = crucial steps. Personalized risk-based approach needed. 🔗 doi.org/10.1053/j.ga... #GISky #medsky #GutSky

A Japanese multicenter study found that comorbid #constipation was linked to a 90%⬆️mortality risk in #HeartFailure pts (P < 0.001) Among 715 patients, those with constipation had worse 2-year survival and higher cardiovascular mortality. #GISky #CardioSky #HeartSky pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39877026/

🔍 Overtesting in IBS? A study of 26,732 IBS patients found that 85.3% of advanced serologic tests were ordered by GIs, yet only 12.5% followed guidelines, with a mere 2.1% positive rate. 💰 $39K wasted on unnecessary tests. Stick to Rome IV criteria! #GISky #GutSky pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39853154/
