In this paper (Varghese et al 2023), the authors attempted to get reference gastric motility data for low BMI and high BMI individuals. Gastric motility refers to the rate at which food moves through the GI tract and has important consequences for health. In short, slower gastric motility is correlated with increased nutrient absorption, reduced inflammation, and improved metabolic health. The authors were testing a new technology called Gastric Alimetry. This technology can evaluate electrical activity in the gut which can be analyzed to assess gastric motility. In this figure, the graphs and heat maps on the right are indicating gastric motility, with higher values for longer periods representing slower gastric motility. Which of the following is a reasonable interpretation of this figure?
