Effect of Linaclotide on Colonic Motility Assessed With Intraluminal Colonic High‐Resolution Manometry in Healthy Subjects. An Acute, Open Label, Randomized, Crossover, Reader‐Blinded Study

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Our study showed that, in healthy controls, acute administration of linaclotide increased the total number of long‐distance propagating and the pre‐prandial pancolonic pressurizations. Further studies need to address whether the observed effects are directly or indirectly mediated by the mechanism of action of this useful medication to treat chronic ...

Prepackaged Low‐Residue Diet “Clear‐Through” Reduces the Required Volume of Polyethylene Glycol Solution for Colonoscopy Preparation: An Exploratory Randomized Controlled Study

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Large volumes of polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution reduce patient acceptance of colonoscopy. A prepackaged low‐residue diet (PLRD; Clear‐Through) may improve bowel cleansing and allow further PEG reduction. This exploratory randomized study evaluated whether PLRD permits decreased PEG with ascorbic acid (PEG‐Asc) volume while ...
