Stress and its impact on the mucosal membranes of the digestive tract: morphological and functional alterations. A review

Abstract

Studies of morphological changes in the mucous membranes of the digestive tract under stress are highly relevant in medical science and practice. Understanding these changes can be key to developing effective prevention and treatment methods for related problems. It is also important to improve the quality of life of people who are stressed in various areas of life. The literature review examines the physiological changes in the digestive tract under stress. Stress causes a complex effect on the functional state of the digestive system, including changes in blood supply, peristalsis and enzyme production. Such processes can lead to digestive disorders and aggravation of disorders.
