A baboon (Papio anubis) was used as a model for the study of the physiology of the esophagus. This model closely resembles the human being phylogenetically and physiologically. Base-line lower esophageal sphincter pressure and peristaltic amplitude are similar to that of man. In addition, the anatomic transition from striated to smooth muscle is identical to that of the human esophagus. The sphincter-depressing effect of ketamine anesthesia was demonstrated.
一只狒狒(埃及狒狒)被用作研究食管生理学的模型。该模型在系统发育和生理方面与人类极为相似。食管下括约肌的基线压力和蠕动幅度与人类相似。此外,从横纹肌到平滑肌的解剖学转变与人类食管相同。已证实氯胺酮麻醉对括约肌有抑制作用。
