Influence of Sacral and Thoracolumbar Spinal Nerve Electrical Stimulation on Colonic Motility in Anesthetized Yucatan Male Pigs

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
Electrical stimulation of spinal thoracolumbar and sacral nerves in anesthetized pigs revealed region‐specific, bidirectional control of colonic motility. These findings provide a structural, mechanistic and functional basis for developing autonomic neuromodulation to treat colon motility dysfunctions and lay the groundwork for targeted clinical trials,

Long‐Term Clinical and Physiological Outcomes in Patients Treated Non‐Surgically for Anorectal Malformations

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 37, Issue 12, December 2025.
The long‐term anorectal outcomes of non‐surgically treated patients diagnosed with minor types of ARM seem optimal. Most of these patients experience no constipation or fecal incontinence; some experience constipation and relatively seldom fecal incontinence. Furthermore, most patients possess all the known fecal continence mechanisms.
