Role of short interval FLIP panometry in predicting long-term outcomes after per-oral endoscopic myotomy.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe Eckardt score (ES) is used to assess symptom response to Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM), but reliable methods to assess physiologic success are needed. Functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) panometry has a potential role in post-POEM follow-up to predict long-term outcomes. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between clinical success and FLIP parameters following POEM to determine if short interval FLIP could predict long-term outcomes.
methodsThis was a prospective study of adult patients who underwent POEM with short interval follow-up FLIP between 11/2017 and 3/2020. Clinical success was defined as post-procedure ES ≤ 3. Physiologic success was based on an esophago-gastric junction distensibility index (EGJ-DI) > 2.8 mm
results47 patients (55% female, mean age 55 years) were included in the study. Clinical success after POEM was seen in 45 (96%) patients (mean ES 6.5 ± 2.2 pre and 0.83 ± 1.0 post-POEM, p < 0.001). Physiologic success was noted in 43 (91.5%) patients (mean EGJ-DI 6.1 mm
conclusionPost-POEM endoscopy with FLIP is useful to both assess EGJ physiology and to examine for reflux esophagitis. Short interval FLIP has limited utility to predict long-term patient outcomes or risk of acid reflux.
