CLINICAL RELEVANCE OF ESOPHAGEAL MOTILITY DISORDERS AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY BASED ON HIGH-RESOLUTION IMPEDANCE MANOMETRY.

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
backgroundThere is recent evidence showing that obesity is associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease and esophageal dysmotility, although symptoms are not always present.
aimsThis is a prospective study based on high-resolution manometry findings in bariatric surgery candidates and their correlation with postoperative dysphagia.
methodsManometric evaluation was performed on candidates for bariatric surgery from 2022 to 2024. The examination was conducted according to the protocol of the fourth version of the Chicago Classification, including different positions and provocative maneuvers to confirm the diagnosis of dysmotility. Patients were followed for 90 days after surgery to verify the occurrence of dysphagia or difficulty adapting to the diet.
resultsHigh-resolution manometry was performed on 46 candidates for bariatric surgery with a mean body mass index of 46.5 kg/m2. Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction was diagnosed in 16 (34.8%) patients, and ineffective esophageal motility was diagnosed in 8 (17.4%) patients. None of the subjects reported symptoms during the preoperative period. Out of the 46 individuals initially included, 44 underwent bariatric surgery, 23 (52.3%) underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and 21 (47.7%) underwent sleeve gastrectomy. One patient with esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction reported dysphagia after Roux-en-Y bypass, but symptoms spontaneously resolved during the 90-day follow-up period.
conclusionsAlthough patients with severe obesity have a high prevalence of esophageal motility disorders, no clinical repercussions were observed after bariatric surgery during the study period.
