Oesophageal Manometry in Experimental Pigs: Methods and Initial Experience [PDF]
Acta Medica, 2016 The aim of this study project was to prepare our own method of porcine oesophageal manometry. Ten mature experimental pigs entered the study. Conventional water-perfused system was decided for manometry. Porcine resting and relaxed pressures of the lower

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.This study reports the first discovery of intrinsic mechanoluminescence in undoped AlN crystals, accompanied by pronounced photoluminescence and persistent luminescence. It further demonstrates a defect‐emission–driven multifunctional optical sensing platform for force, pressure, and temperature detection, achieving exceptional sensitivities.

Dysphagia Secondary to Esophageal Compression in a Patient with Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research, 2022 Cardiogenic dysphagia is a rare type of esophageal dysphagia caused by external compression of the esophagus by an enlarged left atrium. Long-term comparisons between the degree of cardiogenic dysphagia and heart failure have not been reported due to its

Pleural manometry during thoracocentesis in patients with malignant pleural effusion: A randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Respiratory Therapy, 2023 Background: Large-volume therapeutic thoracocentesis may be associated with pulmonary congestion or a more serious complication; re-expansion pulmonary edema (RPE). We investigated whether monitoring pleural pressure with manometry during thoracocentesis
