Abstract

Zenker's diverticulum is a false diverticulum arising in the oesophago-pharyngeal junction. It may cause symptoms like dysphagia and regurgitation. In Central Norway, treatment is centralized to St. Olavs hospital, either as an endoscopic stapled oesophago-diverticulostomy procedure at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery or as laser diverticulostomy at the Department of Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery, depending on diverticulum size. Retrospective, population-based, study from 2001–2020 on patients treated for Zenker's diverticulum, at the time with a rigid endoscopic approach. Patients were identified through the in-hospital register for operations. The two treatment groups were compared on relevant pre-, intra-, and postoperative variables by review of the individual patient records. 78 consecutive patients, 36 at Dept. of Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery and 42 at Dept. of Gastrointestinal Surgery, were treated with a total of 104 interventions. Crude incidence for a surgery-demanding Zenker's diverticulum was 0.57 per 100 000 per year. The Dept. of Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery administered significantly less often prophylactic antibiotics than the Dept. of Gastrointestinal Surgery (p < 0.001), administered more frequently intraoperative dexamethasone (p < 0.001), and had significantly more postoperative infections (19.6% vs 3.4%, p = 0.01). No procedure-related mortality was registered. Although no standardized follow-up took place, at a median of 119 months elapsed, observed clinical recurrence was 35% for the endostapler treatment and 51% for the laser treatment procedure. Both rigid endoscopic stapled oesophago-diverticulostomy and laser diverticulostomy are safe treatments for Zenker's diverticulum, however with a substantial risk of recurrence.

Abstract

Objective: The mechanisms behind the diminished incretin effect in type 2 diabetes are uncertain, but impaired vagal transmission has been suggested. We aimed to investigate the association between the incretin effect and autonomic neuropathy, and the degree of dysglycaemia and duration of diabetes. Design and Methods: For a cross‐sectional study, we included participants with either longstanding type 2 diabetes, recent onset, untreated diabetes and controls without diabetes matched for age, sex and body mass index. Autonomic nerve function was assessed with cardiovascular reflex tests, heart rate variability and sudomotor function. Visceral afferent nerves in the gut were tested performing rapid rectal balloon distention. An oral glucose tolerance test and an intravenous isoglycaemic glucose infusion were performed to calculate the incretin effect and gastrointestinal‐mediated glucose disposal (GIGD). Results: Sixty‐five participants were recruited. Participants with diabetes had rectal hyposensitivity for earliest sensation (3.7 ± 1.1 kPa in longstanding, 4.0 ± 1.3 in early), compared to controls (3.0 ± 0.9 kPa), p =.005. Rectal hyposensitivity for earliest sensation was not associated with the incretin effect (rho = −0.204, p =.106), but an association was found with GIGD (rho −0.341, p =.005). Incretin effect and GIGD were correlated with all glucose values, HbA1c and duration of diabetes. Conclusions: Rectal hyposensitivity was uncovered in both longstanding and early type 2 diabetes, and was not associated with the incretin effect, but with GIGD, implying a potential link between visceral neuropathy and gastrointestinal handling of glucose. Both the incretin effect and GIGD were associated with the degree of dysglycaemia and the duration of diabetes. Previously Published: Some of the data have previously been published and presented as a poster on the American Diabetes Association 83rd Scientific Sessions: Meling et al; 1658‐P: Rectal Hyposensitivity, a Potential Marker of Enteric Autonomic Nerve Dysfunction, Is Significantly Associated with Gastrointestinally Mediated Glucose Disposal in Persons with Type 2 Diabetes.

35. Intermittent use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract

The availability of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) enable patients to access their (estimated) blood glucose values at any time. The technology has had a huge impact on the diabetes care in type 1 diabetes mellitus. On the other hand, patients with type 2 diabetes are usually not offered this kind of monitoring devices. Few studies have evaluated the use of CGM in type 2 diabetes. Hence, the present study is a cluster-randomized controlled trial in which patients with type 2 diabetes are offered CGM for a 14-day period three times in a year. Control individuals are continuing with regular finger pricks. Our hypothesis is that using CGM increases the patients' understanding of the factors that impact blood glucose, and also increase the feeling of empowerment towards the disease. Further, we hypothesize that cases with CGM will have lower average blood glucose (HbA1c) at one year.
