Anxiety Increases Acid-Induced Esophageal Hyperalgesia

Distal esophageal acidification induces hyperalgesia in the non-acid exposed proximal esophagus, due to the sensitization of spinal dorsal horn neurones. The objective was to determine whether anxiety influences acid-induced hyperalgesia. METHODS: A total of 19 healthy volunteers (n = 12 females; age, 22-57 years; mean…
