About this Research Topic
This Research Topic aims to explore the emerging area of interest for both gastroenterology and neurology in understanding the gut-brain axis and autonomic regulation in gastrointestinal autonomic disorders.
The goal is to investigate the gut-brain axis and autonomic regulation in gastrointestinal autonomic disorders; to identify the underlying mechanisms that contribute to the pathophysiology of gastrointestinal autonomic disorders; and to explore potential treatment options and interventions for gastrointestinal autonomic disorders.
This Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the gut-brain axis and autonomic regulation in gastrointestinal autonomic disorders. We welcome studies that identify the underlying mechanisms that contribute to the pathophysiology of gastrointestinal autonomic disorders, which will inform the development of potential treatment options and interventions for patients with these conditions.
