Research Summary
Outcomes in Neurogastroenterology, new devices to evaluate gastrointestinal motility, serum and tissue biomarkers for motility disorders
Extensive Research Description
One of my goals is to discover new and less invasive diagnostic tests and therapies’ aiming to improve outcomes in gastrointestinal motility disorders in children. My research is specifically oriented to gastric, small bowel and colonic motility disorders. I have been able to obtain NIH, Department of Health and Sciences, hospital, and training grants to pursue my research interests. One of my most recent papers described a novel finding of the association of anal canal relaxation with high amplitude peristaltic contractions in the colon, a new colo-anal reflex not previously described. This finding motivated an editorial in the Neurogastroenterology and Motility Journal by Dr Adil Bharucha, the Chief of Gastrointestinal Motility at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, a world authority in the field (Bharucha AE. High Amplitude Propagated Contractions. Neurogastroenterol Motil 2012 Nov;24(11):977-82). I also reported for the first time the use of cyproheptadine in treating upper gastrointestinal symptoms associated to impaired gastric accommodation, a report that is changing the therapeutic standards for such symptoms. I have also contributed to the understanding of gastroparesis in children, reporting the largest study ever compiled about the outcome of such disorder in children, and furthermore, I was also the first one to describe the use of botulinum toxin for such disorder in children. I am currently studying the utility of a wireless motility capsule in gastrointestinal motility disorders in children; this device has FDA approval for its use in adults but has not been approved for use in children. I am currently working on serum and tissue biomarkers for gastrointestinal motility disorders to minimize the utilization of invasive studies in children. My work and experience has been recognized nationally and internationally, as I have been invited to lecture around the country as well as Europe, Asia and North, Central and South America.
