We present a model of esophageal wall muscle mechanics during bolus transport with which the active and "passive" components of circular muscle tension are separately extracted from concurrent manometric and videofluoroscopic data. Local differential equations of motion are integrated across the eso

## Abstract The mechanism by which fluid is transported across epithelial layers is still unclear. The prevalent idea is that fluid traverses these layers transcellularly, driven by local osmotic gradients secondary to electrolyte transport and utilizing the high osmotic permeability of aquaporins.
