    Notes: Acetorphan is a potent enkephalinase inhibitor displaying antidiarrhoeal activity attributable to its intestinal antisecretory action mediated by endogenous enkephalins. The effect of acetorphan on digestive motility was studied in 12 healthy volunteers. Oro-caecal transit time was evaluated using the sulphasalazine/sulphapyridine method and colonic transit times using radiopaque markers. These measurements were successively performed after one week treatment with an antidiarrhoeal dose of acetorphan (100 mg t.d.s.) or placebo. There was no significant modification in transit time linked to acetorphan treatment: total orocaecal times were 303 ± 32 min vs. 287 ± 27 min and colonic transit times 25.8 ± 5.8 h vs. 31.3 ± 5.5 h after acetorphan and placebo, respectively (means ± S.E.M.). There was no significant modification either in right colonic, left colonic or rectosigmoid segmental transit times, or in the mean number of stools. These results, consistent with those from animal studies, confirm that, unlike classical antidiarrhoeal mu opiate receptor agonists, which act by delaying intestinal transit, acetorphan does not affect the transit. Antidiarrhoeal activity not accompanied by a delayed intestinal transit could have beneficial therapeutic consequences in the management of infectious diarrhoea. In addition, we show that the sulfphasalazine and radiopaque markers methods can be simultaneously applied in the same study.

    Notes: Summary Endoscopic lesions of the gastric mucosa were evaluated in 12 healthy volunteers after administration of single doses of ketoprofen (25 mg), ibuprofen (200 mg) and aspirin (500 mg) in a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. The grades of the lesions (according to Lanza's scale) were lower after the administration of ketoprofen than aspirin and were comparable to ibuprofen. An endoscopic score 〉1 was observed in 3 cases after ibuprofen or ketoprofen, and in 8 cases after aspirin. At a time when low, single doses of NSAIDs are widely used as analgesics, gastroscopy makes it possible directly to assess the local agressivity of these molecules. In this way it was possible to demonstrate that the local toxicity of NSAIDs was lower than that of aspirin.

    Simultaneous noninvasive evaluation of gastric emptying and orocaecal transit times (1992)

    Notes: Summary The aim of the study was to use a novel combination of two methods for the simultaneous evaluation of two effects of oral cisapride in 10 diabetic patients with autonomic neuropathy; gastric emptying time was measured by following radio-opaque markers and orocaecal transit time by the sulphasalazine-sulphapridine method. The study was of double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over design. It was possible to evaluate the effect of a prokinetic drug on gastric emptying and orocaecal transit times using these two noninvasive techniques at the same time. Cisapride significantly reduced both the gastric emptying (1.2 h versus 2.1 h) and orocaecal tansit (5.9 h versus 7.7 h) times.
