Gastrointestinal motility and neurogastroenterology
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015Nordic research on gastrointestinal motility has since 1965 made substantial contributions to our current understanding of gastrointestinal function. During the last decade, the term neurogastroenterology has widened the concept of motility research into the study of gastrointestinal sensory-motor function, including the complex central nervous system ...

GASTROINTESTINAL MOTILITY IN PREGNANCY
Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1992The gallbladder and gut should be viewed as hormonally responsive organs the normal physiology of which may be altered by the hormones of pregnancy. The gallbladder enlarges and empties sluggishly in response to meals during pregnancy. Small bowel transit is slowed, and the resting pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter is reduced.

The Gastrointestinal Motility Laboratory
Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2007Abnormalities of gastrointestinal (GI) motor function contribute directly or indirectly to a number of common clinical problems and account for significant health care-related expenditure. Proper evaluation of patients who have suspected GI motility disorders is important to ensure a correct diagnosis and to embark on an appropriate plan of treatment ...

Gastrointestinal Motility and Functional Gastrointestinal Diseases
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014Digestive tract motility patterns are closely related to the pathophysiology of functional gastrointestinal diseases (FGID), and these patterns differ markedly between the interdigestive period and the postprandial period. The characteristic motility pattern in the interdigestive period is so-called interdigestive migrating contraction (IMC). IMCs have

Gastrointestinal Motility after Pancreatoduodenectomy
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1998Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a major surgical procedure which is accompanied by a high morbidity of between 30 and 50%. A large part of this morbidity is caused by delayed gastric emptying (DGE), which is reported to have an incidence of between 30 and 40% and is associated with prolonged hospital stay.

Gastrointestinal Motility in the Neonate
Clinics in Perinatology, 1996Many aspects of the forward propulsion of enteral nutrients are not fully mature in the preterm and term neonate. Because the regulation of motor activity in the gastrointestinal tract is complex and multifaceted, many levels of regulation of this activity are immature in the preterm infant; however, as neonatologists develop a better understanding of ...

Gastrointestinal Motility in the Neonate
Clinics in Perinatology, 1995Although patterns of gastrointestinal movements have been recognized for nearly a century, only in the past 10 years have we had the diagnostic tools to characterize both normal and abnormal motility in the neonate. Parallel with these advances, over the past 25 years, we have seen an explosion in our understanding of the ENS and its independent ...

Circadian Control of Gastrointestinal Motility
2022With the earth's 24-h rotation cycle, physiological function fluctuates in both diurnal and nocturnal animals, thereby ensuring optimal functioning of the body. The main regulator of circadian rhythm is the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which is considered the main pacemaker or "central clock" of the body. Located in the anterior hypothalamus, the SCN

Alterations of Gastrointestinal Motility in Obesity
Obesity Research, 2004AbstractAll nutrients are absorbed in the gastrointestinal (GI) system, and GI motility plays a very critical role in the consumption of foods, digestion, and absorption of nutrients. Various segments of the GI tract (esophagus, stomach, and intestines) coordinate in a complex yet precise way to control the process of food consumption, digestion, and ...
