Esophageal motility in eosinophilic esophagitis
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the esophagus and is a potential cause of dysphagia and food impaction, most commonly affecting young men. Esophageal manometry findings vary from normal motility to aperistalsis, simultaneous contractions, diffuse esophageal spasm, nutcracker esophagus or hypotonic lower ...

Eosinophilic esophagitis and esophageal motility changes.
Eosinophilic esophagitis is a chronic condition that can affect any age, with an increasing prevalence in the last years. Esophageal symptoms are accompanied by normal endoscopic findings or changes suggestive for the disease, like rings, furrows, exudates, or strictures.

ESOPHAGEAL MOTILITY IN TROUBLESOME BELCHING [PDF]
Context Supragastric belches are the main determinants of troublesome belching symptoms. In supragastric belches, air is rapidly brought into the esophagus and is immediately followed by a rapid expulsion before it has reached the stomach. Objective To evaluate the esophageal contraction and transit after wet swallows in patients with troublesome ...

Primary Esophageal Motility Disorders [PDF]
Esophageal motility disorders often manifest with chest pain and dysphagia. Achalasia is a disorder of the lower esophageal sphincter and the smooth musculature of the esophageal body. In achalasia the lower esophageal sphincter typically fails to relax with swallowing, and the esophageal body fails to undergo peristalsis.
