    Abstract:
    Data are limited regarding gastrointestinal motility disturbance in disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI). This study aimed to characterize antroduodenal motor alterations in patients with high-resolution antroduodenal manometry (HR-ADM). HR-ADM was performed in patients with severe DGBI and compared with healthy volunteers (HV). HR-ADM used a commercially available probe composed of 36 electronic sensors spaced 1 cm apart and positioned across the pylorus. Antral and duodenal motor high-resolution profiles were analyzed, based on the frequency, amplitude, and contractile integral/sensor (CI/s) calculated for each phase of the migrating motor complex (MMC). Eighteen HV and 64 patients were investigated, 10 with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), 24 with functional dyspepsia (FD), 15 with overlap IBS-FD, and 15 with other DGBI. Compared with HV, patients had a lower frequency of phase II duodenal contractions (27 vs. 51 per hour; P = 0.002) and a lower duodenal phase II contraction amplitude (70 vs. 100 mmHg; P = 0.01), resulting in a lower CI/s of phase II (833 vs. 1,901 mmHg·cm·s; P < 0.001) in the duodenum. In addition, the frequency of phase II propagated antroduodenal contractions was lower (5 vs. 11 per hour; P < 0.001) in patients compared with HV. Interestingly, the antral CI/s of phase III was decreased in FD patients but not in IBS patients. Patients with severe DGBI display alterations in antral and intestinal motility assessed by commercially available HR-ADM. Whether these alterations may explain symptom profiles in such patients remains to be confirmed (NCT04918329 and NCT01519180).NEW & NOTEWORTHY Gastrointestinal dysmotility has been assessed poorly in disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI), especially with high-resolution antroduodenal manometry. Plots of DGBI patients showed lower duodenal contractions during phase II regarding amplitude, frequency, and contractile integral/sensor (CI/s) compared with healthy volunteers. A lower frequency of propagated antroduodenal contractions was also reported. Finally, antral CI/s was lower in patients with functional dyspepsia during phase III. Further studies are needed to assess the clinical significance of these alterations.
