1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND &

aimsFunctional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) panometry evaluates esophageal motility at the time of sedated endoscopy and often parallels high-resolution manometry (HRM) performed in awake patients. This study aimed to assess the impact of endoscopic sedation on FLIP evaluation of esophageal motility.

methodsAdult patients who completed FLIP panometry during sedated endoscopy and had a conclusive Chicago Classification version 4.0 diagnosis on HRM were included in this retrospective study. HRM diagnoses relative to FLIP panometry motility classifications were compared by sedation type used during FLIP (ie, conscious sedation [CS] with midazolam and fentanyl or monitored anesthesia care [MAC] with propofol).

resultsA total of 454 patients (mean [standard deviation] age 53 [17] years; 62% female) completed FLIP panometry under CS (n = 174; 38%) or MAC (n = 280; 62%; 177/280 MAC included fentanyl). On comparison of CS versus MAC, HRM diagnoses within FLIP panometry motility classifications did not differ (P = .306 across all 5 FLIP panometry classifications; P values .202-.856 within specific FLIP classifications). The proportion of HRM diagnoses within each FLIP panometry classification also did not differ between FLIP completed with CS versus MAC with fentanyl (P = .098) or MAC without fentanyl (P = .0261).

conclusionsWhether CS or MAC was used as sedation during FLIP did not have a clinically significant impact on the relationship between diagnosis on FLIP panometry and HRM. This supports the validity of diagnosing esophageal motility disorders using FLIP panometry during sedated endoscopy.
