Relationships of the early insulin secretory response and oral disposition index with gastric emptying in subjects with normal glucose tolerance [PDF]
The oral disposition index, the product of the early insulin secretory response during an oral glucose tolerance test and insulin sensitivity, is used widely for both the prediction of, and evaluation of the response to interventions, in type 2 diabetes.

Gastric emptying and anaesthesia [PDF]
An understanding of factors which influence gastric emptying rate is important for anaesthetists. In the absence of pyloric stenosis or other mechanical obstruction to the gastric outlet, opioid drugs constitute the most important cause of delayed emptying in the perioperative period.

The Traditional Japanese Medicine Rikkunshito Promotes Gastric Emptying via the Antagonistic Action of the 5-HT3 Receptor Pathway in Rats [PDF]
The traditional Japanese medicine rikkunshito ameliorates the nitric oxide-associated delay in gastric emptying. Whether rikkunshito affects gastric motility associated with 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin: 5-HT) receptors or dopamine receptors is unknown.
