SummaryVisceral 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.

Evidence for visceral hypersensitivity in high-anxiety rats
Physiology & Behavior, 2000In patients with irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety is often associated with visceral pain. Based on this information we hypothesized that rats genetically predisposed to anxiety have an increased visceral sensitivity. To test this hypothesis, visceromotor reflex recordings in response to colorectal distention were used to estimate the level of visceral

Visceral hypersensitivity in non-erosive reflux disease
Gut, 2007Non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) is defined as the presence of classic symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) in the absence of oesophageal mucosal injury (or Barrett’s oesophagus) as determined by inspection at upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.1 As such it is regarded as being one of the two main phenotypes of GORD, the other being ...

Visceral hypersensitivity in noncardiac chest pain
Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2004Visceral hypersensitivity is a common cause of NCCP. Mechanoreceptors appear to be important in the pathophysiology of NCCP, although chemoreceptors also appear to play a significant role. The processing of visceral information and possibly the development of central sensitization may be important in NCCP, although the pathophysiology of NCCPremains ...

Visceral hypersensitivity and intolerance symptoms in lactose malabsorption
Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2007Abstract 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
2019Visceral 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, 2004OBJECTIVE: 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 ...

Anorectal Function and Visceral Hypersensitivity in Celiac Disease
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2010To evaluate anorectal function and rectal sensitivity thresholds in patients with celiac disease (CD).In 25 unselected patients with CD (16 female, 9 male; mean age 45, range 24 to 75 y) and 20 controls (12 female, 8 male; mean age 41, range 20 to 65 y) anorectal manometry and rectal balloon distension test were conducted using a 4 lumen water perfused

Visceral hypersensitivity is an important mechanism in the development of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID), including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), noncardiac disorder, and functional dyspepsia (FD). In pathophysiology of FD, visceral hypersensitivity in gastric distension is a main mechanism in addition to gastric motor dysfunction ...

Irritable pouch syndrome is characterized by visceral hypersensitivity
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2011Irritable 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 ...
