Disease relevance of Biliary Dyskinesia

• Cholecystokinin cholecystography in the diagnosis of chronic acalculous cholecystitis and biliary dyskinesia. A cirtical appraisal [1].

Psychiatry related information on Biliary Dyskinesia

• Effect of nifedipine on sphincter of Oddi motor activity: studies in healthy volunteers and patients with biliary dyskinesia [2].

High impact information on Biliary Dyskinesia

• Intravenous injection of cholecystokinin or ceruletide may disclose a special type of biliary dyskinesia even in patients with normal prestimulatory manometric findings [3].
• Since the sphincter of Oddi (SO) receives a very dense VIP nerve supply, we evaluate the effect of TENS on SO motor activity and on VIP plasma concentrations in patients with biliary dyskinesia and in healthy volunteers [4].
• It is also possible that the alterations seen in patients with biliary dyskinesia may be due to impairment of the VIP nerve supply at the level of the SO [4].
• Effectiveness of pinaverium bromide in the treatment of primitive biliary dyskinesia: 99mTc-P-IDA scintigraphic evaluation [5].
• Controlled study of the effects of tiropramide on biliary dyskinesia [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of Biliary Dyskinesia

• As the development of endoscopic manometry affords a modality to measure and record sphincter of Oddi pressures, the paradoxical responses noted to the intravenous administration of CCK during manometric evaluation supports the diagnostic value of Kinevac used as a provocative agent in the evaluation of biliary dyskinesia [7].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Biliary Dyskinesia

• Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for biliary dyskinesia: correlation of preoperative cholecystokinin cholescintigraphy results with postoperative outcome [8].
• Based on a cholecystokinin (CCK)-provoked GBEF of less than 50% and the absence of any other gastrointestinal pathology, patients underwent cholecystectomy with operative cholangiography for presumed biliary dyskinesia [9].
