“…Moreover, Naguib et al [9] reported that honey increased residual gastric volume if taken by patients 2 hours before surgery; however, the patients did not suffer any consequence especially rise in gastric pH, did not regurgitate or aspirate and thus they were not more prone to acid pneumonitis syndrome. Furthermore, Sanaa et al [10] found that honey supplementation increased gastric emptying time in proteinenergy malnutrition patients.…”

Background: Up to date no documented research tends to study influence of natural honey administration on gastric emptying in healthy male albino rats. Aims & Objective: The present study was carried out to investigate the effects of natural honey administration on gastric emptying in healthy male albino rats. Materials and Methods: A total number of 36 healthy, male, albino rats weighing 150-200 grams were used in this study. The rats were subdivided into sex equal groups I (control group received distilled water), II (received a small dose of honey), III (received a large dose of honey), IV (received metoclopramide), V (received both small dose of honey and metoclopramide) and VI (received both large dose of honey and metoclopramide). Then, percentage of gastric emptying during one hour (experimental period) was calculated in all the groups. Results: This study revealed that honey large dose and the combination of honey large dose with metoclopramide significantly (P<0.05) decreased the % of gastric emptying in male albino rats in their groups in comparison to the control group. These results suggested that honey decreases % of gastric emptying in male albino rats in a dose dependent manner. Conclusion: Honey decreases % of gastric emptying in male albino rats and these effects are mostly mediated by its high concentrations of monosaccharides glucose and fructose. These results help in clarification of the role of honey in treating diarrhea and its utilization prior to surgeries and also, its role in increasing body weight in infants.

“…Varying degrees of malnutrition and nutritional parameters can correlate with the extent of delayed gastric emptying. [62][63][64][65] This correlation appears to be more significant in patients with marasmus than kwashiorkor, although gastroparesis appears reversible in all after nutritional rehabilitation. Delayed gastric emptying is also frequently reported in patients with eating disorders, which should be considered in young females presenting with vomiting.…”

Background Due to scarcity of scientific literature on pediatric gastroparesis, there is a need to summarize current evidence and identify areas requiring further research. The aim of this study was to provide an evidence‐based review of the available literature on the prevalence, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of pediatric gastroparesis. Methods A search of the literature was performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐analyses guidelines with the following databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science. Two independent reviewers screened abstracts for eligibility. Key Results Our search yielded 1085 original publications, 135 of which met inclusion criteria. Most articles were of retrospective study design. Only 12 randomized controlled trials were identified, all of which were in infants. The prevalence of pediatric gastroparesis is unknown. Gastroparesis may be suspected based on clinical symptoms although these are often non‐specific. The 4‐hour nuclear scintigraphy scan remains gold standard for diagnosis despite lack of pediatric normative comparison data. Therapeutic approaches include dietary modifications, prokinetic drugs, and postpyloric enteral tube feeds. For refractory cases, intrapyloric botulinum toxin and surgical interventions such as gastric electrical stimulation may be warranted. Most interventions still lack rigorous supportive data. Conclusions Diagnosis and treatment of pediatric gastroparesis are challenging due to paucity of published evidence. Larger and more rigorous clinical trials are necessary to improve outcomes.

“…These studies provide scientific evidence of the healing effects of honey on traditional medicines, including Siddha medicine. For example, pediatric clinical studies have shown healing effects of cough, wounds, respiratory infections, chronic venous ulcers of the legs, inflammatory, damaged skin, herpes, gastroenteritis, malnutrition, burns, mucositis, dehydration, and tooth extraction wounds (Abdel-Naby Awad and Hamad, 2018, Abdulrhman et al 2011, Aly et al 201, Haffejee and Moosa, 1985, Konuk Sener et al 2019, Mokhtari et al 2019, Paul, 2012, Shaaban et al 2010, Shadkam et al, 2010, Simon et al 2006. This is the first study on the role of honey in pediatric treatments in Sri Lankan Siddha Medicine.…”

Honey is used as food and for the treatment of indigenous medicines worldwide, also in Sri Lanka for a long time. Siddha Medicine is one of the four indigenous medicines currently practiced in Sri Lanka and is generally practiced in the Eastern and Northern Provinces of Sri Lanka. This study aims to explore and highlight the use of honey in pediatric treatments in Sri Lankan Siddha Medicine. Preparations used to treat pediatric disorders were obtained from standard Sri Lankan textbooks used in Siddha Medicine degree programs at universities in Sri Lanka [Pararasaseharam (Part Two) and Seharasasehara Treatment]. A total of 30 preparations were identified using honey as an ingredient or adjuvant. Honey is generally used to treat indigestion and disorders associated with the digestive system. This is the first study on the role of honey in pediatric treatments in Sri Lankan Siddha Medicine. This work identified, analyzed, and documented the use of honey in pediatric treatments in Sri Lankan Siddha Medicine.
