Gastric Alimetry
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: Gastric emptying testing (GET) assesses gastric motility, however is non-specific and insensitive for neuromuscular disorders. Gastric Alimetry® (GA) is a new medical device combining non-invasive gastric electrophysiological mapping and validated symptom profiling. This study assessed patient-specific phenotyping using GA compared to GET. Methods: Patients with chronic gastroduodenal symptoms underwent simultaneous GET and GA, comprising a 30-minute baseline, Results: 75 patients were assessed; 77% female. Motility abnormality detection rates were: Conclusions: GA improves patient phenotyping in chronic gastroduodenal disorders in the presence and absence of motility abnormalities with improved correlation with symptoms and psychometrics compared to gastric emptying status and Rome IV criteria. These findings have implications for the diagnostic profiling and personalized management of gastroduodenal disorders. Study Highlights: 1) WHAT IS KNOWN Chronic gastroduodenal symptoms are common, costly and greatly impact on quality of lifeThere is a poor correlation between gastric emptying testing (GET) and symptomsGastric Alimetry® is a new medical device combining non-invasive gastric electrophysiological mapping and validated symptom profiling 2) WHAT IS NEW HERE Gastric Alimetry generates a 1.5x higher yield for motility abnormalities than GETWith symptom profiling, Gastric Alimetry identified 2.7x more specific patient categories than GETGastric Alimetry improves clinical phenotyping, with improved correlation with symptoms and psychometrics compared to GET.
