Abstract

Abstract The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of an acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP), without biliary obstruction, on the migrating motor complex (MMC), small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SBBO), bacterial translocation (BT) and infection of the pancreas simultaneously. Rats were divided into four groups: mild pancreatitis, control, ANP and sham operated control. Jejunal myoelectrodes were used to measure MMCs. Blood, peritoneal fluid, bile, and abdominal organs were harvested for microbial culturing 72 h after induction of pancreatitis. The splenic portion of the pancreas was taken for histology. During ANP the MMC cycle length was significantly increased from 14.1 ± 0.2 to 22.4 ± 1.9 min (P < 0.05). The duodenum of ANP rats was in contrast with the other groups characterized by Enterobacteriacae (> 3 log 10 CFU g −1 in seven of 12 rats, P < 0.05). A positive correlation (r = 0.78, P < 0.01) existed between duodenal Gram‐negative and anaerobic flora and the MMC cycle. Correlation between MMC cycle length and BT to the pancreas was positive as well (r = 0.70, P < 0.01). A positive correlation (r = 0.85, P < 0.01) was found between the severity of pancreatitis and duodenal bacterial overgrowth. During ANP without biliary obstruction, the jejunal MMC is disturbed and consequently SBBO occurs. The correlation between the severity of pancreatitis, the disturbance of the MMC and SBBO suggests an important pathophysiological role of the proximal small bowel in the infection of pancreatic necrosis.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • A reduction in parasympathetically controlled intestinal transit has been associated with an increase in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and bacterial translocation.

    “A reduction in parasympathetically controlled intestinal transit has been associated with an increase in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and bacterial translocation (Van Felius et al., 2003).”

    From The Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis (2019) · cites this paper as Van Felius et al., 2003

  • Impaired intestinal transit caused by compromised migrating motor complexes is associated with bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine.

    “Impaired intestinal transit caused by compromised, migrating motor complexes (a motor pattern characteristic of the fasting state of the gastrointestinal tract that is under parasympathetic control), is associated with bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine.20”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
