1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Gastroesophageal flap valve (GEFV) grading is a simple and reproducible parameter. There is limited information about the association between GEFV abnormality and novel parameters in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD) symptoms by the Lyon Consensus. To investigate the value of GEFV grading in GERD, the clinical data of 320 patients with GERD symptoms who underwent endoscopy, 24-h multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) monitoring, and high-resolution manometry (HRM) were retrospectively analyzed. The percentage of acid exposure time (AET%)(4.2 [1.5-7.4] vs. 1.3 [0.3-4.2], P < 0.001) and the proportion of abnormal esophagogastric junction (EGJ) morphology (71 [87.7%] vs. 172 [72.0%], P = 0.011) were significantly higher, while the mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) (2068.3 [1658.4-2432.4] vs. 2228.5 [1794.8-2705.3]Ω, P = 0.012) and post-reflux swallow-induced peristaltic wave index (PSPWI) (19.7 [13.9-29.0] vs. 33.3 [25.0-44.0]%, P < 0.001) were significantly lower in the abnormal GEFV group compared with the normal GEFV group. AET% and EGJ morphology showed positive correlations with GEFV grade, while PSPWI and MNBI showed negative correlations. Patients with an abnormal GEFV had a significantly greater risk of conclusive evidence of GERD compared to those with a normal GEFV (OR 3.035, 95% CI 1.758-5.240, P < 0.001). Further, when identifying patients with conclusive evidence of GERD, abnormal GEFV had a specificity of 80.4% (95% CI 75.3-85.5%). GEFV grading might be regarded as supportive evidence for GERD diagnosis.
