Review article: the pathophysiology and management of gastrointestinal symptoms during physical exercise, and the role of splanchnic blood flow

Abstract: Summary Background The prevalence of exercise‐induced gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms has been reported up to 70%. The pathophysiology largely remains unknown. Aim To review the physiological and pathophysiological changes of the GI‐tract during physical exercise and the management of the most common gastrointestinal symptoms. Methods Search of the literature published in the English and Dutch languages using the Pubmed database to review the literature that focused on the relation between splanchnic blood flow… Show more

“…The magnitude of the reduction in splanchnic blood flow during exercise appears to be dependent on different factors, including age, exercise intensity, the increase in total body oxygen consumption (VO 2 ), heart rate, plasma norepinephrine concentration, time after food ingestion, and ambient temperature (95,209,255,398,488,503). Intensity-dependent increases in plasma vasopressin and angiotensin II levels accompany the increased splanchnic vascular resistance during exercise (37,502).…”

“…Gastrointestinal symptoms are a common feature of endurance exercise, and appear to be more pronounced in running or endurance events that contain a running element (e.g., triathlon) compared to other exercise modes (e.g., cycling) (Pfeiffer et al 2012;ter Steege and Kolkman 2012). For example, severe gastrointestinal symptoms have been reported in 85% and 73% of ultramarathon runners during multi-stage and 24 h ultra-marathons, respectively.…”

“…Epithelial injury is a key feature of exercise-induced gastrointestinal syndrome, which appears to originate from splanchnic hypoperfusion and subsequent gastrointestinal ischaemia (Evennett et al 2009;Grootjans et al 2016;ter Steege and Kolkman 2012;van Wijck et al 2011;van Wijck et al 2012). Despite evidence of increased epithelial injury after GC1 (144%) and GC2…”

“…Increased gut permeability related to intense exercise is thought to occur due to a combination of fluid depletion, hyperthermia, ischaemia and free radical stress [3]. Ischaemia occurs due to decreased blood flow to the splanchnic circulation during exercise, and many athletes report gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting during and after exercise [4]. Similarly, many haemodialysis (HD) patients experience gastrointestinal complaints after dialysis and also experience intestinal ischaemia and contraction of the splanchnic circulation during dialysis and ultrafiltration [5].…”
