For the six hours after the test meal, the subjects were instructed to remain quiet.

They were swallowed half an hour before the ingestion of the test meal.

Figure 1 shows the mean gastric emptying of the test meal.

Identical test meals were used for all the experiments.

Clinicians must take into account the nature of the test meal used when results are correlated with clinical features.

Subsequently, after consumption of a test meal, gall bladder images were made every 15 minutes for 2 hours.

Time zero was considered the time of completion of the test meal.

They explained the test meal, I expect?

All received the standard semisolid test meal.

The 'semisolid' test meal used in our studies behaves as a slow emptying liquid.

There was still a test meal to do, to eliminate a simple or pernicious anaemia and a sternal puncture.

Six healthy female subjects were fasted overnight, and on the morning of the trial ingested the radiolabelled test meal.

The cooked test meal was cut into small pieces, mixed thoroughly, and placed in a beaker in a water bath at 37 C.

This behaviour is typical of the several meals we have investigated using scintigraphic techniques, and shows that it represents a physiological relevant test meal.

The semisolid test meal (37 subjects) was found to have a mean half emptying time of 45 minutes with no appreciable lag phase.

Rates of gastric emptying vary enormously in the same individual depending on the nature of the test meal studied.

The finalists cooked test meals.

The gastric emptying characteristics of the test meal were also monitored by gamma scintigraphy in a separate experiment.

At eight hours after injection, about 70% of maximum gall bladder contraction was achieved at 45 minutes after the test meal.

Gastric emptying was assessed on a different day after overnight fasting by means of 10 radioopaque markers ingested with a standard test meal.

Humans with obesity also exhibit a lower secretion from pancreatic procolipase after a test meal, compared with persons of normal weight.

After this, subjects were sham fed a standard test meal for determination of sham fed acid output, as previously described.

The test meal contained 12 ml lactulose and was eaten after overnight fasting by each subject within five minutes, again 20 minutes after insulin injection.

In gall bladder filling after a test meal, V r e s reflects maximum gall bladder volume.

Plasma octreotide concentrations during CSOI were measured in the fasting state and, after consumption of the test meal, every 30 minutes for two hours.
