All the functions of the digestive system are controlled,\n   guided and initiated by the autonomic nervous system. A special part of this\n   system placed in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract is known as the\n   enteric or metasympathetic nervous system. The aim of this study was to\n   analyse myenteric nervous plexus in different parts of the digestive tract.\n   Methods. We examined the myenteric nervous plexus of the esophagus, stomach,\n   duodenum, jejunum, ileum, transverse colon and rectum in tissue samples taken\n   from 30 cadavers of persons aged 20-84 years. After standard histological\n   processing sections were stained with hematoxylineosin, cresyl violet (CV)\n   and AgNO3 method. Multipurpose test system M42 was used in morphometric\n   analysis. The results were analyzed by t-test and analysis of variance.\n   Results. The number of neurons per cm2 surface was the lowest in the\n   esophagus (2.045 ? 310.30) and the largest in the duodenum (65,511 ? 5,639).\n   The statistical processing showed significant differences (p &lt; 0.001) in the\n   number of neurons between the esophagus and all other parts of the digestive\n   tract. The maximal value of the average surface of the myenteric nervous\n   plexus neurons was observed in the esophagus (588.93 ? 30.45 ?m2) and the\n   lowest in the stomach (296.46 ? 22.53 ?m2). Conclusion. There are differences\n   in the number of ganglion cells among different parts of the human digestive\n   tract. The differences range from a few to several tens of thousands of\n   neuron\/cm2. The myenteric nervous plexus of the esophagus was characterized\n   by a significantly smaller number of neurons but their bodies and nuclei are\n   significantly larger compared to other parts of the digestive tract.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2298\/vsp141231046m","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,23]],"date-time":"2016-03-23T11:54:44Z","timestamp":1458734084000},"page":"559-565","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Quantitative morphometric analysis of the myenteric nervous plexus ganglion structures along the human digestive tract"],"prefix":"10.2298","volume":"73","author":[{"given":"Predrag","family":"Mandic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tatjana","family":"Filipovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Milos","family":"Gasic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Natasa","family":"Djukic-Macut","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Milan","family":"Filipovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Clinic of Surgery, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ivan","family":"Bogosavljevic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, Kosovska Mitrovica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1078","container-title":["Vojnosanitetski pregled","Military Medical and Pharmaceutical Journal of Serbia"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,29]],"date-time":"2023-05-29T11:16:48Z","timestamp":1685359008000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/doiserbia.nb.rs\/Article.aspx?ID=0042-84501600046M"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2016]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2298\/vsp141231046m","relation":{},"ISSN":["0042-8450","2406-0720"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0042-8450","type":"print"},{"value":"2406-0720","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016]]}}}
