[Acute effect of metoclopramide on esophagus motility in diabetes mellitus].

The acute effect of metoclopramide on oesophageal motility was investigated prospectively in 33 consecutive patients (20 men and 13 women; mean age 60.5 +/- 12.6 years) with type I (n = 8) or type II (n = 25) diabetes. 15 patients had a peripheral sensory-motor polyneuropathy only and three just an autonomic cardial neuropathy. Both lesions were present in ten, none in five. No patient had oesophago-gastroduodenal lesions. Sphincter pressure, relaxation time, contraction amplitude and propulsion velocity of bolus-induced oesophageal peristalsis were measured manometrically after intravenous administration of 10 mg metoclopramide. Resting pressure in the lower oesophageal sphincter rose significantly by 26.7%, contraction amplitude in the tubular portion of the oesophagus by more than 30%, and propulsion velocity by more than 20% (P for each < 0.05). At the same time the amount of segmental and aperistaltic oesophageal contractions regressed significantly. The effect of metoclopramide was demonstrated regardless of the type of diabetes, duration of diabetes and any manifestation of autonomic cardial or peripheral sensory-motor neuropathy.
