title: Role of stomach regions and duodenum in the formation of electrical activity of gastroduodenal complex.
abstract: Functional activity of components of the gastroduodenal complex (gastric cardia, gastric corpus, pylorus, and duodenal bulb) was studied in 4 series of acute experiments. One of these regions was subjected to electrical stimulation in each series. Our results suggest that the cardia possesses rhythm-forming properties, the corpus plays a system-organizing role, the pylorus plays a trigger role, and the duodenal bulb produce synchronizing effects.
