Electrogastrography in patients with gastroparesis and effect of long-term cisapride.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Subjects with fatty liver disease (FLD) can show increased hepatic 2-deoxy-2-((18)F)fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) uptake, but the role of hepatic inflammation has not been explored. AIMS:We investigated whether hepatic inflammatory response, as implicated by elevated serum markers, is associated with increased liv...
