Potential Links Between Physiological and Perceptual Strain in High Heat Stress

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The physiological strain index (PhSI) is widely used to quantify thermoregulatory and cardiovascular strain during heat stress. However, direct physiological measurements may not always be feasible in occupational or athletic settings.

Volitional augmentation of upper esophageal sphincter opening during swallowing

, 1991
Studies were done on eight normal subjects with synchronized videofluoroscopy and manometry to facilitate a biomechanical analysis of the extent and mechanism of voluntary augmentation of upper esophageal sphincter (UES) opening during swallowing ...

Assessment of upper GI motor activity and GI symptoms in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: an observational study

Frontiers in Neurology
Background/aimsOro-pharyngeal dysfunction has been reported in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). We aimed to assess ALS patients upper gastrointestinal (GI) motor activity and GI symptoms according to bulbar and spinal onset and severity of ALS ...

Three‐dimensional imaging of upper esophageal sphincter resting pressure

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2019
Objective High‐resolution manometry (HRM) is used to analyze upper esophageal sphincter (UES) physiology. Conventional HRM can yield imprecise measurements of UES resting pressure given its unidirectional sensors and averaging of circumferential pressure.

SimulScan and Partial Least Squares: Visualizing Swallowing Through Functional and Dynamic Imaging Correlations

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 4, Page 1755-1768, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Swallowing involves the precise coordination of muscles and brain areas and can be disrupted in a variety of neurological conditions. Current methods to visualize swallowing cannot examine both the biomechanics and brain activity associated with specific swallowing events.

Electromyography of human cricopharyngeal muscle of the upper esophageal sphincter

, 2002
The cricopharyngeus (CP) is a striated muscle sphincter situated at the pharyngoesophageal junction. The upper esophageal sphincter is comprised of the striated CP muscle and nonmuscular components at the level of the cricoid cartilage.

Acupuncture for Poststroke Dysphagia: An NTS‐Centered Hypothesis‐Generating Framework Linking the Brainstem Swallowing Network, Neuroimmune Regulation, and Vagal Anti‐Inflammatory Signaling

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Poststroke dysphagia (PSD) may reflect not only focal motor pathway injury but also instability of the brainstem swallowing network under neuroimmune, glial, and vascular microenvironmental stress. Methods This mechanism‐oriented narrative review synthesized evidence on swallowing central pattern generator (CPG) organization ...

Premature closure of the upper esophageal sphincter as a cause of severe deglutition disorder in infancy

, 2005
Deglutition disorders in infancy are often associated with birth asphyxia or structural abnormalities in the hypopharynx, the trachea, or the esophagus.
