Similar contractions will sometimes be excited by swallowing. In these cases it seems likely that the diaphragm is stimulated either by a sudden distension of the fibers around the eso- phageal opening or else by the action current of the eso- phageal muscle. The latter theory seems not improbable because the diaphragm has been observed to twitch rhy- thmically under the stimulus of the action current of the heart. It is suggestive that hiccup is not infrequently a troublesome symptom after ser...ious operations when the gastro-intestinal currents are plainly reversed. Other factors are undoubtedly at work, and there probably are many varieties of hiccup in which reverse peristalsis plays no part. (10) "BILIOUSNESS.
