EDITORIAL COMMENT This is a valuable contribution to knowledge of the way in which drugs may affect intestinal motility.A study on the effects of quinidine exemplifies the use of an elegant experimental technique in which the electrical activity in the wall of the gut, the intraluminal pressure, and the transit rate of intestinal contents are related.The results with quinidine are very interesting and further studies of this type should advance our understanding of gastrointestinal pharmacology.
