Esophageal motility disorders missed during endoscopy.
Article in Esophagus : official journal of the Japan Esophageal Society, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundEsophageal motility disorders are sometimes misdiagnosed on endoscopic examination. We aimed to identify the proportion of patients with esophageal motility disorders missed during endoscopy and their clinical characteristics.
methodsPatients diagnosed with either disorder with esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction or major disorders of peristalsis using high-resolution manometry in our hospital from April 2015 to March 2021 were included in this study. Missed esophageal motility disorders were defined as patients with any endoscopic misdiagnosis such as normal esophagus or esophagitis within 1 year before the manometric diagnosis. We determined the proportion of missed esophageal motility disorders and identified independent predictors of missed esophageal motility disorders using multivariate analysis.
resultsA total of 41/273 esophageal motility disorders (15.0%; 95% confidence interval 11.3-19.7%) were missed during endoscopy within 1 year before manometric diagnosis. In the stepwise logistic regression analysis, the following variables were selected as independent variables for patients with missed esophageal motility disorders during endoscopy: non-dilated esophagus (odds ratio = 4.87, 95% confidence interval: 1.81-13.12, p = 0.002), the presence of epiphrenic diverticulum (odds ratio = 8.95, 95% confidence interval: 1.88-42.65, p = 0.006), the use of transnasal endoscopy (odds ratio = 4.71, 95% confidence interval: 1.59-13.92, p = 0.005), and the combined use of esophagram (odds ratio = 0.023, 95% confidence interval: 0.0025-0.20, p = 0.0008).
conclusionsBased on retrospective analysis, 15% of esophageal motility disorders were missed during endoscopy. Understanding the clinical characteristics of missed esophageal motility disorders could help improve endoscopic diagnoses.
