Fig. 2From: Effects of acotiamide on esophageal motor function and gastroesophageal reflux in healthy volunteersPeak peristaltic contraction pressure in 3 different segments of the esophageal body with and without acotiamide administration. Contraction pressures were weaker in the sitting position than in the supine position. Administration of acotiamide induced slight changes in segment 1 and 2, while there was no significant change in segment 3, which is most related to esophageal peristaltic contractions. *p < 0.05, significantly differentBack to article page
