| Research Abstract |
Although intestinal pacemaker cell is said to control the motor function of the intestinal smooth muscle, the exact etiology is unknown. We investigated the intestinal motor function in the rat by using manometry with small-diameter catheter and multiple channels. Although the rhythmic waves were observed in the antrum, pylorus and duodenum in the fasting rats, the changes of the rhythmic waves after feeding or vagal stimulation could not be observed. Therefore, we have observed the upper gastrointestinal motor function in the clinical subjects by using manometry with multiple channels.
In the infants with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, characteristic aphasic and tonic entractile activity in the gastroduodenal junction is uncoordinated with the antral contractions. Such incoordination may be an important factor in the disturbed transpyloric flow. In the pediatric patients with congenital esophageal stenosis, the presence of gastroesophageal reflux and impaired esophageal motility are common.
