Abstract
In accordance with the abstract as well as results of the article entitled "Impact of Sensory Stimulation on Pharyngo-esophageal Swallowing Biomechanics in Adults with Dysphagia: A High-Resolution Manometry Study" published in Dysphagia journal, it has been found the cold bolus significantly reduced extent of upper esophageal sphincter opening during swallowing as measured by Integrated Relaxation Pressure from 9.34 to 5.17 mmHg. But, contrarily, it is written in paragraph four of the discussion that "interestingly, only the cold bolus significantly increased the extent of upper esophageal sphincter opening in this study based on the Integrated Relaxation Pressure metric" which considerably contrasts with the result of the study.Entities:
