Neither amitriptyline nor escitalopram appeared to affect GE or meal-induced satiety after the 10-week period in any group. Subjects with delayed GE were less likely to report adequate relief than subjects with normal GE (odds ratio = 0.4; 95% confidence interval: 0.2-0.8). Both antidepressants improved overall quality of life. Conclusions Amitriptyline, but not escitalopram, appears to benefit some patients with FD, particularly those with ulcer-like (painful) FD. Patients with delayed GE do not respond to these drugs.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:39:41 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28111 a priori hypothesized six-factor measurement model (X²(428) = 1462.98; P<0.001; GFI = .88; RMSEA = .051). Conclusion: The GISSI demonstrated good to excellent psychometric properties and provided multi-dimensional scaling of prominent GI symptom clusters. Further validation may provide an efficient, valid, and reliable measure of patient-reported clinical outcomes.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:00 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41260 Mon 01 Aug 2022 09:21:51 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34107 T CC genotype has been previously linked to FD and TT genotype to antidepressant response in depression. The ss genotype of the 5-HTT LPR variant of the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) has been linked to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) response. We aimed to examine whether GNβ3 825C>T and 5-HTT LPR polymorphisms result in differential treatment effects in FD patients receiving antidepressant therapy. Methods: Participants were randomized to receive placebo, 50 mg AMI, or 10 mg escitalopram (ESC). The primary end point was adequate relief for ≥5 weeks of the last 10 weeks. Genotyping of GNβ3 825C>T and 5-HTT LPR was performed utilizing PCR-based methods. Results: GNβ3 825C>T and 5-HTT LPR genotype data were available for 256 (88%) and 246 (84%) patients, respectively. Both polymorphisms were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. In tests for differential treatment, neither 5-HTT LPR nor GNβ3 825C>T genotype influenced response to therapy (P=0.89 and P=0.54, respectively). Although there was a tendency for a more favorable response to ESC in the SS/LS genotype compared to the LL genotype groups (40% vs. 31% reporting adequate relief of FD symptoms) among those in the ESC treatment arm, this was not significant (P=0.43). Conclusions: GNβ3 825C>T and 5-HTT LPR genetic variants do not alter treatment response to tricyclic and SSRI antidepressants in FD.]]> Fri 08 Feb 2019 10:43:58 AEDT ]]>
