Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) for Achalasia Cardia: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Achalasia cardia is a motility disorder of the esophagus characterized by a lack of esophageal peristalsis and failure of lower esophageal sphincter opening during swallowing. Symptomatic patients present with a long history of difficulty swallowing, along with chest pain and vomiting. Two male patients, 55 and 24 years old, with proven achalasia cardia by high-resolution esophageal manometry (HRM), underwent a successful peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) procedure at our center. This was the first time this procedure was done in Nepal. In this case report, we have demonstrated that a novel third-space procedure like POEM can be safely performed in a resource-limited country.
