“…During fasting, the observed relationship between fundic and PAWs in the current study (∼32%) is within the range previously reported in dogs 2,14,22 and humans 15 . The main new finding is, however, that the functional association persists during nutrient stimulation in contrast to the situation in dogs 2,3,14,22 . This difference may be due to the disappearance of fundic volume waves during nutrient infusion in dogs, 2,3,14,22 whereas in humans, duodenal nutrients reduced rather than abolished the frequency and volume amplitude of the FW.…”
