Altered esophageal motility during perception of bolus transit in healthy volunteers
Costa TV, Dantas RO. Background – The perception of bolus transit through the thoracic esophagus may be caused by altered esophageal anatomy and function. Objective – To evaluate the hypothesis that, in healthy volunteers, swallows followed by perception of esophageal bolus transit are associated with changes in esophageal motility. Methods – Simultaneous evaluation of motility…
