2021, Respiratory Physiology and NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :This high-pressure zone is responsible for the physiological functions of the UES. The preponderance of evidence suggests that the primary muscle responsible for the high-pressure zone of the UES is the cricopharyngeus muscle (Asoh and Goyal, 1978; Kahrilas et al., 1988; Lang et al., 1991). Electrical activity of the CP muscle (EAcp) has been repeatedly reported in phase with respiration in several studies in both adult human and animal subjects (Levitt et al., 1965; Kahrilas et al., 1987; Jacob et al., 1990; Lang and Shaker, 1997; Ertekin and Aydogdu, 2002; Jones et al., 2014).
