Abstract

Myogenic control mechanisms play a role in all motor activities of the gut. Myogenic control systems are defined here as control systems that are intrinsic to the smooth muscle cells and/or interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and that can operate without an essential contribution of the intrinsic (ENS) and extrinsic nervous systems. In vivo however, the ENS and the myogenic control systems always work in cooperation. Although myogenic control plays a role in every gut organ, this review focuses on the peristaltic and segmentation activity of the small intestine. It provides some historical perspectives and some discussion on the development of our understanding of the cooperative nature of the myogenic and neurogenic control mechanisms. It highlights how some influential papers inadvertently provided hindrance to full understanding, it discusses how the guinea pig model has hampered acceptance of myogenic control systems and it provides some background into the genesis of our understanding of control mechanisms involving ICC.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 February 2017.
All research outputs
#18,530,362
of 22,952,268 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#3,321
of 4,958 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#271,771
of 355,961 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#61
of 95 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,952,268 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,958 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.1. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 355,961 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 95 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
