Delayed Gastric Emptying in Children with Crohn's Disease.
Grill, Bruce B. M.D.; Lange, Robert Ph.D.; Markowitz, Richard M.D.; Hillemeier, A Craig M.D.; McCallum, Richard W. M.D.; Gryboski, Joyce D. M.D.

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology
June 1985



Fifty-seven percent of patients with delayed gastric emptying had radiologic and/or endoscopic evidence of nonconstrictive involvement of the duodenum with Crohn's disease, while 80% of patients with such involvement had delayed gastric emptying. These results help explain the decreased caloric intake observed in Crohn's disease patients and support the role of liquid caloric supplements.
