Upper esophageal sphincter pressure in patients with Chagas' disease and primary achalasia

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
The most important component of the upper esophageal sphincter (UES) is the cricopharyngeal muscle. During the measurement of sphincter pressure the catheter passed through the sphincter affects the pressure value.

A fully resolved active musculo-mechanical model for esophageal transport

open access: yes, 2015
Esophageal transport is a physiological process that mechanically transports an ingested food bolus from the pharynx to the stomach via the esophagus, a multi-layered muscular tube. This process involves interactions between the bolus, the esophagus, and
