ABSTRACT

Gastrointestinal complications in diabetes are related to autonomic neuropathy. Till date, most of the established literatures have shown that these complications and symptoms are more prevalent in diabetic population compared to non diabetic control groups. These studies are mostly of western world origin. On the other hand, many studies have failed to show such an association. The numbers of such studies are very limited in India, particularly in Eastern India. We have tried to determine the association and the influences of diabetes on GI symptoms.

Key words: GI symptoms, diabetes, Eastern India
