Peroral Endoscopy Myotomy (POEM) for Esophageal Motility Disorders.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of reviewThis review aims to provide an overview of the current role of per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) in the management of primary esophageal motility disorders and treatment of Zenker's diverticulum. RECENT
findingsPOEM has been shown to be an effective treatment for achalasia. Recent research has suggested that the length of myotomy may be tailored to the disease phenotype and that short myotomy may be equally effective compared to long myotomy. The role of intra-operative EndoFLIP has shown promise as a tool to assess of the adequacy of myotomy. Further research is needed to determine the role of POEM in other esophageal motility disorders and for treatment of Zenker's diverticulum. Per oral endoscopic myotomy has been shown to be an effective and durable treatment option for achalasia with additional potential roles for the treatment of other esophageal motility disorders and Zenker's diverticulum.
