This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ...that action can certainly be overcome in abnormal states." Cannon realized that his experiments did not throw light on some of the peculiarities of gastric emptying in achylia and in the presence of ulcers and carcinomas. Recently a great deal of the theorizing based upon the idea of an alkaline duodenum has been upset by the work of McClendon,309 Long and Fenger,273 and others who have shown with the help of modern electro-chemical methods, that the contents of the upper intestine are normally slightly acid. In animals with short intestines they may be acid even as far as the ileocecal sphincter. Furthermore, a number of those who in recent years have studied the emptying of the stomach in man have come to the conclusion that especially in disease, the hydrochloric acid has little to do with the pyloric control (Von Bergmann,49 Faulhaber and von Redwitz,149 Egan,134 Morse,328 Wheelon and Thomas,444 Luckhardt, Philips and Carlson,277 McClure, Reynolds and Schwartz,311 Spencer, Meyer, Rehfuss and Hawk,408 Lenk and Eisler260). It seems probable, from a great deal of experimental work, that the opening and closing of the pylorus depends to a large measure on mechanical factors, that is, differences in the gradient of tone and irritability between the stomach and duodenum. I have already mentioned the experiments which show that an increased pressure brought about by pleasant psychic influences will cause more rapid emptying. An increase in the amount of distension of the stomach may have a similar effect. Thus Marbaix300 found that 250 c.c. of water left his stomach twice as fast if he put 250 c.c. of air on top of it. Ludin,281 Moritz,327 and others have found that food eaten on top of a contrast meal causes that to leave the...
