Motility in the Gastrointestinal Tract

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1963
BALLOON-KYMOGRAPH STUDIES of esophageal motility first were reported by Kronecker and Meltzer in 1883. Meltzer came to the United States and was instrumental in founding the American Physiological Society, the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine, and the American Society for Clinical Investigation.

Gastrointestinal Motility and Functional Gastrointestinal Diseases

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014
Digestive 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, 1998
Pancreatoduodenectomy (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, 1996
Many 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, 1995
Although 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

2022
With 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

Diagnostic and clinical utility of the wireless motility capsule in children: A study in patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders

Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2020
The wireless motility capsule (WMC) evaluates gastrointestinal motility and transit simultaneously. We evaluated the utility of the WMC in children with functional gastrointestinal symptoms.

Alterations of Gastrointestinal Motility in Obesity

Obesity Research, 2004
AbstractAll 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 ...
