Update Motility Disorders: Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease - Diagnostic and Conservative Approach.
Review in Visceral medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is extremely common, with at least 1 in 10 people in the general population reporting heartburn and acid regurgitation on a weekly basis. GORD can also be associated with a variety of atypical symptoms, including chest pain, chronic cough, and laryngopharyngeal symptoms. The causes of GORD are multifactorial, and the severity of symptoms is influenced by peripheral and central factors, including psychosocial stress and anxiety. Therefore, for a variety of reasons, no single investigation provides a definitive diagnosis, and standard treatment with acid suppressants is not always effective. Summary: This review introduces the Lyon Consensus, now in its second iteration, a classification system that provides a "conclusive" positive or negative diagnosis of GORD by integrating the results of endoscopy, ambulatory reflux monitoring, and high-resolution manometry. Different algorithms are applied to patients with high and low pre-test probability of a causal relationship between reflux episodes and patient symptoms. The results of these studies identify patients with "actionable" results that require escalation, revision, or discontinuation of GORD treatment. Guidance is provided on the range of conservative treatments available for GORD, including dietary and lifestyle advice, antacids and alginates, and drugs that suppress acid secretion. Key Messages: GORD is a common disorder; however, the causes of reflux and symptoms can be complex. As a result, the diagnosis can be missed, and management is sometimes challenging, especially for patients with atypical symptoms. The Lyon classification establishes a conclusive diagnosis of GORD, based on results of endoscopic and physiological investigation. Typical symptoms usually respond to empiric use of alginate-antacid preparations and acid suppression; however, the management of treatment refractory symptoms is tailored to the individual.
