Gastrointestinal motility disorders are commonly seen digestive system diseases in elderly subjects. During the process of normal aging,digestive tract experiences a series of degenerative changes,which is the foundation of many gastrointestinal motility disorders. Further study on gastrointestinal dysmotility and its mechanisms is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of related diseases in aging population. In this article,the advances in studies on effects of aging on motility of digestive tract( including oropharynx,esophagus,stomach,small bowel,colon and anorectum)and its mechanism researches were reviewed.
