Secondary peristalsis and esophagogastric junction distensibility in symptomatic post-fundoplication patients.

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 impact of esophageal dysmotility among patients with post-fundoplication esophageal symptoms is not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate secondary peristalsis and esophagogastric junction (EGJ) opening biomechanics using functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) panometry in symptomatic post-fundoplication patients.
methodsEighty-seven adult patients post-fundoplication who completed FLIP for symptomatic esophageal evaluation were included. Secondary peristaltic contractile response (CR) patterns and EGJ opening metrics (EGJ distensibility index (EGJ-DI) and maximum EGJ diameter) were evaluated on FLIP panometry and analyzed against high-resolution manometry (HRM), patient-reported outcomes, and fundoplication condition seen on esophagram and/or endoscopy. KEY
resultsFLIP CR patterns included 14 (16%) normal CR, 30 (34%) borderline CR, 28 (32%) impaired/disordered CR, 13 (15%) absent CR, and 2 (2%) spastic reactive CR. Compared with normal and borderline CRs (i.e., CR patterns with distinct, antegrade peristalsis), patients with impaired/disordered and absent CRs demonstrated significantly greater time since fundoplication (2.4 (0.6-6.8) vs. 8.9 (2.6-14.5) years; p = 0.002), greater esophageal body width on esophagram (n = 50; 2.3 (2.0-2.8) vs. 2.9 (2.4-3.6) cm; p = 0.013), and lower EGJ-DI (4.3 (2.7-5.4) vs. 2.6 (1.7-3.7) mm CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES: Symptomatic post-fundoplication patients were characterized by frequent abnormal secondary peristalsis after fundoplication, potentially worsening with time after fundoplication or related to EGJ outflow resistance.
