Utility of Esophageal High-Resolution Manometry in Clinical Practice: First, Do HRM.
Review in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

13 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 24 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) has advanced the understanding of esophageal motor function and the ability to diagnose and manage disorders of esophageal motility. In this review, we describe the indications for and the technical performance of HRM. The Chicago classification of esophageal motor function, now in its third iteration, streamlines and standardizes the nomenclature and basic interpretation of HRM data depicted as Clouse topographic plots. In clinical practice, HRM is an important diagnostic test for patients with dysphagia as well as patients with suspected gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), particularly in those patients with a suboptimal symptomatic response to antisecretory therapy. HRM can support diagnoses such as achalasia, as well as provide evidence for behavioral disorders such as rumination syndrome or supragastric belching with the assistance of postprandial HRM with impedance. Further, the GERD classification of motor function introduces a three-part hierarchical evaluation of esophageal motor function in GERD, highlighting the value of assessment of esophageal contractile reserve through provocative maneuvers during HRM such as multiple rapid swallows.
