The pathophysiology of nausea and vomiting is complex, and the list of potential etiologies is vast. Patients with nausea and vomiting frequently report that eating exacerbates symptoms. Noteworthy gastrointestinal causes for meal-related nausea and vomiting include gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia, dumping syndrome, superior mesenteric artery syndrome, and median arcuate ligament syndrome. A number of carefully selected diagnostic tests, utilization of the Rome criteria, and an appreciation for the epidemiology of these various conditions can help the clinician hone in on the underlying cause. Importantly, a properly performed and interpreted gastric emptying study is essential to making an accurate diagnosis of gastroparesis and distinguishing this condition from functional dyspepsia, a common disorder of gut-brain interaction. There are a number of treatment options for nausea and vomiting, and the treatment approach is dependent on the specific cause for the meal-related symptoms. This article examines the approach to meal-related nausea and vomiting by reviewing tests to consider in the diagnostic evaluation of symptoms, followed by a discussion of clinically relevant disorders and disorder-specific treatments.</p>","PeriodicalId":52498,"journal":{"name":"Gastroenterology and Hepatology","volume":"21 1","pages":"19-27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11784569/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143082036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is classified by antibiotic responsiveness into chronic antibiotic-dependent pouchitis and chronic antibioticrefractory pouchitis. Pathogenesis of chronic pouchitis can range from microbially mediated to more antibiotic-resistant and immune-mediated processes. A diagnostic index combining clinical, endoscopic, and histologic components is essential for clinical practice and research. In chronic antibiotic-dependent pouchitis, remission is managed with microbiota- or immune-targeted therapies. For chronic antibiotic-refractory pouchitis, immune-directed therapy is primary, with vedolizumab recommended for first-line treatment. Other advanced therapies rely on less definitive evidence, and efficacy may be reduced by precolectomy exposure.

Potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs), a newer class of medications, act at the same proton pump through a novel mechanism resulting in profound and sustained acid suppression. Although trials in Asian populations over the past decades have highlighted the potential benefit of P-CABs, clinical trials in Western populations have been initiated more recently. These trials evaluated vonoprazan in patients with <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> infection, erosive esophagitis, and heartburn with nonerosive reflux disease and have demonstrated promising results, culminating in US Food and Drug Administration approval for these indications. Adverse event profiles between PPIs and P-CABs appear comparable thus far, although additional long-term data on P-CABs are needed. While navigating the evolving landscape of acid suppression, it is crucial to identify which patients and diseases are poised to derive the most benefit from this emerging therapeutic option. This article seeks to highlight important pharmacologic properties of PPIs and P-CABs, understand the current literature with a focus on clinical trials in Western populations, and explore potential scenarios for integrating P-CABs into therapeutic regimens.</p>","PeriodicalId":52498,"journal":{"name":"Gastroenterology and Hepatology","volume":"20 12","pages":"733-738"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11776008/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143069699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
