Alshammari, N. A., Riches, K., Muttakin, S., Hoad, C. L., Strkalj, L., Gouseti, O., Bakalis, S., Lovegrove, A., Spiller, R. C., Gowland, P. A., Aithal, G. P., Yakubov, G. E., Taylor, M. A., & Marciani, L. (2024). Structuring white rice with gellan gum reduces the glycemic response in healthy humans. Food Research International, 196, Article 115090. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2024.115090

White rice has a high glycemic index and its consumption has been linked to an increased risk of developing type-2 diabetes mellitus, increased diabetes associated complications and obesity. In recent in vitro studies we have shown that addition of f... Read More about Structuring white rice with gellan gum reduces the glycemic response in healthy humans.

Combined magnetic resonance imaging, high resolution manometry and a randomised trial of bisacodyl versus hyoscine shows the significance of an enlarged colon in constipation: the RECLAIM study (2024)
Journal Article
Wilkinson-Smith, V., Scott, M., Menys, A., Wiklendt, L., MARCIANI, L., Atkinson, D., Sansone, S., Zdanavciene, A., Coupland, C., Knowles, C., Dinning, P., Taylor, S., Gowland, P., Hoad, C., Corsetti, M., & Spiller, R. (in press). Combined magnetic resonance imaging, high resolution manometry and a randomised trial of bisacodyl versus hyoscine shows the significance of an enlarged colon in constipation: the RECLAIM study. Gut,

Background
Colonic motility in constipation can be assessed non-invasively using MRI

Objective
To compare MRI with high resolution colonic manometry (HRCM) for predicting treatment response.

Design
Part 1: 44 healthy volunteers (HV), 43 p... Read More about Combined magnetic resonance imaging, high resolution manometry and a randomised trial of bisacodyl versus hyoscine shows the significance of an enlarged colon in constipation: the RECLAIM study.

Intra‐ and interindividual variability in fasted gastric content volume (2024)
Journal Article
Roelofs, J. J. M., Camps, G., Leenders, L. M., Marciani, L., Spiller, R. C., Van Eijnatten, E. J. M., Alyami, J., Deng, R., Freitas, D., Grimm, M., Karhunen, L. J., Krishnasamy, S., Le Feunteun, S., Lobo, D. N., Mackie, A. R., Mayar, M., Weitschies, W., & Smeets, P. A. M. (in press). Intra‐ and interindividual variability in fasted gastric content volume. Neurogastroenterology and Motility, https://doi.org/10.1111/nmo.14904

Background: Gastric fluid plays a key role in food digestion and drug dissolution, therefore, the amount of gastric fluid present in a fasted state may influence subsequent digestion and drug delivery. We aimed to describe intra-and interindividual... Read More about Intra‐ and interindividual variability in fasted gastric content volume.
