Advances in Neurogastroenterology and Therapeutics in Gastrointestinal Function Disorders

Important advances in the field of neurogastroenterology and motility have been achieved in recent years, including modern imaging testing, developments at the cellular and molecular levels, the evolving role of the microbiome in various functional gastrointestinal symptoms, the role of diet and traditional and complementary medicine in managing functional gastrointestinal conditions, and many other advances from the clinical and laboratory levels. We believe that this topical collection is of paramount significance and relevance for shedding light on the recent advances in neurogastroenterology and motility disorders, from pathophysiology to management, at the clinical and laboratory levels.

This Research Topic will look to include, but is not limited to, the following sub-topics:

· Achalasia

· Gastrointestinal motility

· Constipation

· Functional gastrointestinal disorders

· Gastroesophageal reflux disease

· Irritable bowel syndrome

This collection encourages submission of the following article types; original articles, reviews, and meta-analyses. Submissions should contain treatment and/or therapy within the manuscript.
