“…These results are in agreement with the reports of Gorman and Kamiya (1972) and Welgan (1974) in indicating that gastric secretion can be brought under consequential control. These results differ from the reports cited in failing to show control over differential rates of secretion within the same session.…”

“…The technical difficulties include the absence of immediate feedback in Welgan's (1974) study and the nonlinear relation of intragastric pH to acid secretion in Gorman and Kamiya's (1972) study. ously aspirating from a stomach tube introduces relatively long delays between secretion and measurement, especially as the tube tends to clog when the stomach is empty.…”

In an attempt to control gastric acid secretion with operant-conditioning techniques, four normal women were given visual feedback on gastric pH plus money reinforcers.When money was made dependent on increased secretion in a differential-reinforcementof-high-rates schedule, the rate of secretion of three of the four subjects increased to three times baseline. When money was then made dependent on decreased secretion in a differential-reinforcement-of-other-behaviors schedule, the rate of secretion of these three subjects returned to baseline levels. Heart rate, respiratory frequency, abdominal electromyographic activity, and stomach motility (measured by the electrogastrogram method) were not consistently correlated with acid secretion across subjects, although individual subjects showed substantial correlations between acid secretion and one or more other physiological response.DESCRIPTORS: gastric acid secretion, operant conditioning of gastric acid secretion, gastric pH, biofeedback, differential reinforcement of high rate to increase gastric acid secretion, DRO to reduce gastric acid secretion, visceral learning A variety of autonomic responses have been modified with operant-conditioning procedures (Miller, 1969;Shapiro and Schwartz, 1972). Miller (1969) and others have called attention to the possible value of these techniques in the treatment of psychophysiologic disorders. Successful clinical applications have included elimination of ruminative vomiting (Lang and Melamed, 1969), reduction in cardiac arrhythmias (Weiss and Engel, 1971), and reduction of blood pressure in essential hypertension (

“…It has been reported that chlorogenic acid affects the expression of gastric acid secretion-related proteins in human gastric cancer cell (Rubach et al, 2008). The excessive secretion of hydrochloric acid, the main constituent of gastric acid, in the stomach is considered an important factor in the formation of peptic ulcer (Welgan, 1974). Fig.…”

“…Interestingly, this modality was first applied to treat neuromuscular disorders [7], Among the first applications in gastroen terology were attempts to achieve control over gastric acid secretion. These studies not only demonstrated the principles of biofeedback therapy, but also its problems and its limita tions [8][9][10][11], Studies were also performed to control gas tric motility but proved elusive [12][13][14], Oth er applications of biofeedback therapy were only marginally successful. Among them was the attempt to alter lower esophageal sphinc ter pressure in normal subjects and in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease [15].…”

Biofeedback therapy is a useful adjunct to conventional treatment for many patients with refractory defecation disorders. This article provides an overview regarding the historical evolution of this treatment together with current perspectives regarding the principles and techniques of performing biofeedback therapy and an assessment of its outcome in adults and pediatric patients with defecation disorders.
