Core Tip	Gastric preparation is closely related to the gastric visualisation, image quality, completion rate, and diagnostic efficacy in the widely used magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE). The gastric preparation method needs continuous optimisation. Drinking 550 mL of carbonated soft drink before MCE obtained a better gastric filling result for at least 10 min compared with drinking 1000 mL pure water, combined with a potential promotion of gastric emptying. This study provided a preliminary clinical assessment of a novel gastric preparation regimen for MCE. Carbonated soft drink performed better and sustained gastric filling compared with pure water for gastric preparation.
