Recent research is unraveling pathophysiology beyond symptom-only definitions, focusing on the duodenum with innate immune disturbance (duodenal eosinophilia) and microbial disruption as possible cause. Management of functional dyspepsia includes making a secure diagnosis, treatment with first-line proton pump inhibitors (PPI), then tricyclic antidepressants, and careful choice of prokinetics. Herbal treatments (peppermint oil) and STW-5 have in this age group limited efficacy. Summary: Further studies are needed to define the prevalence of functional dyspepsia in the elderly and of prime importance, to exclude organic disease as a cause for symptoms of dyspepsia.]]> Wed 15 Dec 2021 16:10:33 AEDT ]]> The role of olfactory challenge tests in incipient dementia and clinical trial design https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18865 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:03:15 AEDT ]]> The role of dietary protein and fat in glycaemic control in Type 1 diabetes: implications for intensive diabetes management https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26704 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:20 AEDT ]]> Issues in measuring and interpreting diet and its contribution to obesity https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36380 Fri 03 Apr 2020 16:45:31 AEDT ]]> Cardiotoxicity of radiation therapy: mechanisms, management, and mitigation https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42763 Fri 02 Sep 2022 09:01:20 AEST ]]> Functional dyspepsia and food: immune overlap with food sensitivity disorders https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39978 Fri 01 Jul 2022 09:58:32 AEST ]]>
