Prediction of gastroesophageal reflux episodes by smooth muscle electromyography: A translational study in rats and adolescents.

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
Aims: Our aim was to measure the myoelectric modifications during gastric acid secretion along with the gastric pH in a rat model and to detect the gastrointestinal (GI) myoelectric changes in adolescents suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) along with the esophageal pH measurement. Main methods: In anesthetized rats, gastric acid secretion was initiated with intragastric histamine (50 mg/kg), and gastric pH, GI myoelectric activity and mechanical GI contractions were measured with intragastric pH electrode, subcutaneously implanted smooth muscle electromyography (SMEMG) electrodes and organ implanted strain gauges, respectively. In the clinical study, esophageal pH and GI myoelectric activity were measured in adolescents suffering from GERD with intraesophageal pH electrode and SMEMG electrodes placed on the abdominal surface, respectively. The SMEMG records were analyzed by fast Fourier transformation (FFT) and power spectrum density maximum (PsD Key findings: In rats, histamine initiated an immediate increase in gastric PsD Significance: Increased gastric myoelectric activity during histamine stimulation or GERD might be linked to the enhanced activity of the gastric proton pump, indicating a link between gastric acid secretion and GERD episodes. It is supposed that SMEMG might be a tool for predicting forthcoming reflux episodes in GERD.
