Visceral hypersensitivity and intolerance symptoms in lactose malabsorption

Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2007
Abstract  Lactose malabsorption is not always associated with intolerance symptoms. The factors responsible for symptom onset are not yet completely known. As differences in visceral sensitivity may play a role in the pathogenesis of functional symptoms, we evaluated whether an alteration of visceral sensitivity is present in subjects with lactose ...

Visceral Pain and Hypersensitivity Disorders

2019
Visceral pain and hypersensitivity disorders are common but poorly understood, and their specific treatment is even more limited than for somatic disorders. Visceral hypersensitivity is mediated by small sensory fibers, the Aδ and C afferents, and results from their lowered activation thresholds, change in phenotype, or altered regional density ...

Study of visceral hypersensitivity in irritable bowel syndrome

Chinese Journal of Digestive Diseases, 2004
OBJECTIVE:  Visceral hypersensitivity is highly prevalent in most functional bowel disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and activation of intestinal mast cells (MC) may play a role because they have been found in close proximity to gastrointestinal mucosal sensory nerve terminals containing neuropeptides and a bi‐directional pathway ...

Irritable pouch syndrome is characterized by visceral hypersensitivity

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2011
Irritable pouch syndrome (IPS) is a functional disorder in patients with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA), which presents with symptoms in the absence of structural abnormalities of the pouch. Thus, it resembles other functional disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome characterized by visceral hypersensitivity in the presence of normal rectal ...

P2X receptor-mediated visceral hyperalgesia in a rat model of chronic visceral hypersensitivity

Gut, 2008
Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disorder characterised by abdominal pain and bloating in association with altered bowel movements. Its pathogenesis and the underlying molecular mechanisms of visceral hyperalgesia remain elusive. Recent studies of somatic and other visceral

Review article: visceral hypersensitivity.

Alimentary pharmacology & therapeutics, 2003
Visceral hypersensitivity is highly prevalent in all functional bowel disorders. Most also demonstrate wider patterns of somatic referral of intestinal pain or discomfort. This hypersensitivity may explain the symptoms as the sensitive gut can be more easily provoked by normal or abnormal motor events in the gut.
