The Relationship

Current techniques used to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the sensory responses to distension of the human esophagus provide limited information because the degree of circumferential stretch required to determine tension can only be inferred. We used impedance planimetry to measure the cross-sectional area during esophageal distension to ascertain the degree of stretch and tension that initiated motor and sensory responses. Hyoscine- N-butyl bromide (HBB), a cholinergic muscarinic receptor blocker, was also used to alter esophageal tension during distension. Motor activity was initiated at a lower degree of stretch and tension than that which initiated sensory awareness; both increased directly with increasing distension. HBB reduced both esophageal motility and tension during distension without altering the relationship between sensation intensity and cross-sectional area. Esophageal stretch, rather than tension, thus appears to be the major factor influencing sensory responses to esophageal distension.

We have previously shown that airway cross-sectional area increases 15-20% after pneumonectomy in weanling ferrets by measuring bronchial casts. We have now reanalyzed these same casts to quantitate changes in airway length after pneumonectomy. In each cast the distance from each of 120 airways to the terminal bronchiole along its axial pathway was measured. The relationship between the logarithm of this distance and that of the fraction of the lobe subtended by an airway could be described by a quadratic equation with a correlation coefficient greater than 0.85. Subsegmental and more distal airways of postpneumonectomy animals were 33-47% longer than those of controls. Overall the main axial pathway of airways in the left lower lobes was 12% longer in operated animals, but this increase was primarily accounted for by an increase in the length of the more peripheral airways. Central airways were little if any longer in operated animals. After pneumonectomy in weanling ferrets, subsegmental and peripheral airway lengths increase to a greater degree than lung volume and airway cross-sectional area, whereas central airway lengths increase to a lesser extent if at all. The mechanisms responsible for this difference between central and intralobar compensatory airway growth are unknown.
