DD was characterised by anorectal manometry and balloon expulsion test. There were 390 patients with DD, and 61 with STC without DD. Transit data from 211 healthy individuals served as controls. The primary endpoints were overall colonic transit (geometric centre) at 24\u2005h and 48\u2005h (GC24 and GC48). Regional transit was measured as ascending colon half-emptying time (AC t\n                      <jats:sub>1\/2<\/jats:sub>\n                      ) and residual content in descending rectosigmoid colon and stool (DRS).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Age and body mass index were similar in the STC and DD groups.

The regional content of DRS at 48\u2005h discriminated DD from STC (AUC=0.82) and stool content at 48\u2005h, increasing the odds for DD over STC (OR per 5% in stool 2.4, 95% CI 1.1 to 5.5, p=0.03).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      DD is associated with delayed overall colonic transit at 48\u2005h and AC t\n                      <jats:sub>1\/2<\/jats:sub>\n                      compared with healthy controls.
