Figure 4 Examples of 4 second integrated relaxation pressure in the same subjects in Figure 3; an (A) 85-year-old, (B) 50-year-old and (C) 22-year-old.
EGJ non- relaxation, despite adequate peristaltic response is seen in 4A, while normal relaxation responses are seen in association with peristalsis (4B) or fragmented peristalsis (4C).
