    Peak and nadir amplitudes and durational measurements. (A1) Peak amplitude in sensor 1, measuring the highest pressure. (A2) Nadir of pressure in sensor 3, measuring the lowest pressure. (B1, B2) The timepoints that determine pressure generation duration in sensor 2. (C1, C2) The timepoint which determine UES relaxation duration as well as total swallowing duration.
