PD patients with constipation had significantly higher pain severity and pain interference, as measured by the BPI scale and higher total KPPS score, fluctuation-related pain, nocturnal pain, and radicular pain when compared to PD patients without constipation. This study highlights for the first ...
All had significant fecal retention by an x-ray scoring system (Barr et al. Clin Pediatr 18:674) compared to age-matched sibling controls (p < .05). Enemas were given to reduce the score to normal prior to study. Mouth-to-colon transit time was measured by rise in breath H2 after ...
and the follow-up time [14–16,22,24,26,27] ranged from 4 weeks to 64 weeks. The primary outcome was the number of weekly spontaneous bowel movements. The secondary outcomes included opaque X-ray marker, patient’s satisfaction, and clinical symptom score (such as weekly defecation frequency...

Objectives: Plain film abdominal x-ray (AXR) is frequently used in the evaluation of constipation, but studies assessing the association between stool burden on AXR and colonic transit have been limited. We sought to investigate the relationship between colonic stool burden and slow transit ...
More than two-thirds reported a history of undergoing a medical procedure, the most common being abdominal ultrasound (51%), barium X-ray (45%), and colonoscopy (35%). The most common prescription (Rx) medications reported at baseline included tegaserod (26%) and pinaverium bromide (9%). ...

(A) GSRS lower gastrointestinal part score at visit 2 (baseline); (B) GSRS lower gastrointestinal part score at visit 5 (8 weeks); (C) the change from visit 2 to visit 5. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. (A) Comparisons between the groups using the p-values from two-sample...
the microbial communities in each group were similar in the PCoA and NMDS score charts. The sampling points between groups were far apart and did not overlap, indicating that dietary HSDF supplementation significantly changes the microbial composition in the intestine of mice with constipation. The LE...
