On the question of changes in the excitability of the interoceptors of the small intestine in experimental peritonitis

The literature on interoceptive reactions of various organs and systems is quite large, but the question of the reflex activity of the abdominal organs under conditions of peritonitis has not been studied enough; meanwhile, it is important both in theoretical and practical terms. We made an attempt to investigate some aspects of reflex activity of the intestine in the dynamics of experimental peritonitis in dogs with unchanged and altered body reactivity caused by sensitization with a foreign protein. Experiments and control observations were performed on 128 dogs.
