What Is the Impact of High-Resolution Manometry in the Functional Diagnostic Workup of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease?
Review in Visceral medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
International guidelines agree that high-resolution esophageal manometry (HRM) is an integral part of the diagnostic evaluation of patients with refractory reflux symptoms and should be performed before antireflux surgery. Its most important goal is to explore differential diagnoses, in particular major esophageal motility disturbances, that may be responsible for symptoms. HRM additionally provides insights into all relevant pathomechanisms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): It can reveal important information on the morphology and function of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ), the presence of a hiatus hernia, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations, and dysmotility of the esophageal body. To obtain this information, a 3-step hierarchical system has been proposed for the algorithmic characterization of esophageal motor function. The first step is to investigate the morphology and contractility of the EGJ, the second to monitor esophageal body motor patterns in response to water swallows, and the third to determine the contraction reserve in patients with abnormal esophageal motor function using provocation tests. Observations made with HRM can not only explain the cause of symptoms in GERD patients but may also have the potential to direct specific treatment.
