Objective To analyze the correlation between liquid nutrient load test ( LNLT) and the gender, subtype in functional dyspepsia ( FD) patients.Methods A total of 44 patients from China Japan Friendship Hospital were enrolled and gender, age and subtype were recorded.Then all patients received the LNLT and recorded the threshold volume ( TV) and maximal volume (MV).Results A total of 44 patients (22 males and 22 females) have completed the trial.The patients were divided into 2 subtypes (17 cases in EPS, 27 cases in PDS).There were 44 healthy control group, 22 females and 22 males.TV of FD were lower than TV of healthy control group[(229.7 ±95.4)ml vs (269.8 ±36.1)ml, t =-2.609, P =0.012],MV of FD were lower than MV of healthy control group[(506.1 ±220.2)ml vs (755.9 ±79.9)ml, t =7.073, P 展开▼
