Effect of gastric distension with concurrent small intestinal saline or glucose infusion on incretin hormone secretion in healthy individuals: A randomized, controlled, crossover study

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Randomised crossover study

Authors' conclusion

Gastric distension, either alone or during small intestinal glucose exposure, does not stimulate incretin hormone secretion significantly in healthy humans.

Study context

Population
Healthy participants (2 females, 6 males), mean age 69.3 ± 1.2 years, BMI 23.5 ± 0.8 kg/m²each studied on 4 occasions
Participants
8 participants
Comparison
Gastric distension (intragastric balloon) vs no distension, during intraduodenal saline or glucose infusion
Primary endpoint
Plasma GIP and GLP-1 secretion
Methodological detailsrandomized, controlled
  • Randomized
  • Controlled

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Plasma GLP-1 and GIP with vs without gastric distension
  • No difference in plasma GLP-1 or GIP with or without gastric distension, during saline or glucose infusion
  • Saline + distension vs Saline: P = 1.00
  • Glucose + distension vs Glucose: P = 1.00
  • Saline + distension vs Saline: P = 1.00
  • Glucose + distension vs Glucose: P = 0.99
