During the past several years gastrointestinal endocrinology has expanded its scope. Several specific clinical syndromes can be directly ascribed to abnormalities in the control of the gastrointestinal hormones. New concepts interrelating the gut and the brain have served as a stimulus for investigation of the interactions among control mechanisms in all aspects of human biology. The rapid, almost explosive progress in this area has been spearheaded by surgical physiologists, for which Dr. Graham would have been justly proud. Finally, it is important to spotlight the role that Washington University researchers have played in this developmental process.
在过去几年里,胃肠内分泌学的研究范围不断扩大。几种特定的临床综合征可直接归因于胃肠激素控制方面的异常。肠道与大脑相互关联的新概念激发了人们对人类生物学各个方面控制机制之间相互作用的研究。这一领域迅速、近乎爆发式的进展是由外科生理学家引领的,格雷厄姆博士对此当之无愧地感到自豪。最后,突出华盛顿大学研究人员在这一发展过程中所起的作用很重要。
