| Abstract | In addition to gastrointestinal tract symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite, impaired gastric emptying time (GET) may be related to nutritional parameters and nutritional status of patients on renal replacement therapy (RRT). Patients on RRT are affected by several factors such as uremic toxins, the presence of dialysate in the peritoneal cavity, and the drugs used against renal allograft rejection. In this study, we investigated the gastric emptying time and its relationship with biochemical and nutritional parameters in patients on RRT: those on hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, and renal transplantation patients. Seventy‐five patients, 44 on hemodialysis, 16 on peritoneal dialysis, and 15 renal transplant patients, were included in the study. They were examined for gastric emptying time using a radioisotopic method. The results were compared with the GET of healthy subjects. Each group of patients was evaluated in terms of hemoglobin, hematocrit, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, blood glucose, total protein, albumin, serum lipids, parathyroid hormone (PTH) and body mass index and biceps and triceps skinfold. The mean GET of patients on RRT was significantly longer than the mean GET of healthy subjects (87.8 ± 23.4 vs. 55 ± 18 min, p < 0.05). The mean GET of each therapy subgroups was significantly longer than the healthy subjects (the mean GET was 85.1 ± 22.4 min for hemodialysis, 87.7 ± 31.8 min for peritoneal dialysis, and 94.6 ± 16.7 min for renal transplant patients, respectively, p < 0.05). On the other hand, the differences in the mean GET between the three therapy subgroups were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). In addition, time on replacement therapy inversely and blood glucose positively correlated with GET in renal transplant patients. In conclusion, GET was longer in patients on all three RRT modalities than in healthy subjects. GET was not significantly different in dialysis patients and renal transplant patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
