Funded Activity Summary

50% of patients with complications of peptic ulcer (bleeding) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (Barrett's Oesophagus) have no symptoms of their diseases. In contrast, 50% of patients who seek treatment for gastrointestinal symptoms are found to have no cause after investigations. The aims of this study are to explore differences in sensation, muscular function and genetic factors between patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders and patients with complicated organic disorders.
