Variation of muscle tone in the human colon.
Abstract
It was hypothesized that the human colon is able to relax or constrict to receive materials arriving from above or to hasten distal passage of contents. Dilatation is also a feature of several pathophysiological states and, therefore, the propensity of the colon to dilate might be important in disease. An electromechanical barostat was applied to the human colon, and changes in colonic tone were recorded in response to physiological...
