Effect of Esophageal Movement on Intraluminal Esophageal Pressure Recording
Gastroenterology, 1974 In order to determine the effect of esophageal movement on tracings of intraluminal pressure, the esophageal body, lower esophageal sphincter, and diaphragmatic hiatus were labeled with metal markers in cats. Metal markers also identified the location of manometric tube recording orifices.

Comparison of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt with covered stent and balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration in managing isolated gastric varices [PDF]
, 2017 OBJECTIVE: Although a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is commonly placed to manage isolated gastric varices, balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) has also been used. We compare the long-term outcomes from these

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

434 ESOPHAGITIS AND LOWER ESOPHAGEAL SPHINCTER PRESSURE IN CHILDREN [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1978 Patients with gastroesophageal reflux (GER) frequently have a decreased lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure that increases after surgery, although variable results have been noted in children. LES pressures were measured in 80 patients > 3 months of age with symptomatic GER and in 20 control patients.
