Identifying Multidimensional Signatures of Gastric Interoception in Functional Dyspepsia (IMAGINE)

14 augustus 2026 bijgewerkt door: Helen Burton-Murray, PHD, Massachusetts General Hospital
This study is being conducted to investigate gut-brain communication in individuals with functional dyspepsia and anorexia nervosa. The hope is that what the investigators learn from this study will improve the understanding the conditions better to improve treatments.

Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Visual interoception task
Tijdsspanne: Day 1, visit 1, 30-minute scan and visit 2 (within approximately two weeks of day 1), 30-minute scan
The study team will be investigating brain activity and connectivity during an interoception task. This will be measured via functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) which is able to measure blood flow to regions of the brain.
Day 1, visit 1, 30-minute scan and visit 2 (within approximately two weeks of day 1), 30-minute scan
Resting state connectivity
Tijdsspanne: Visit 2 (second visit, within approximately 2 weeks of day 1 of the study), 60 minute scan.
Change in brain activity during rest pre and post prandially using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Visit 2 (second visit, within approximately 2 weeks of day 1 of the study), 60 minute scan.
Gastric peristaltic velocity
Tijdsspanne: 30 minutes (only in Visit 2, within approximately two weeks of Visit 1)
MRI-derived gastric motility outcome
30 minutes (only in Visit 2, within approximately two weeks of Visit 1)
