Defining Pharyngeal and Upper Esophageal Sphincter Disorders on High-Resolution Manometry-Impedance: The Leuven Consensus.
Article in Neurogastroenterology and motility, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07365046 (Comprehensive Analysis of the Swallowing Mechanism Using High-resolution Manometry With Impedance), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 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.

Abstract
introductionThe Leuven Consensus provides a classification scheme for the diagnosis of pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter (UES) motor disorders using metrics derived from pharyngeal high-resolution manometry-impedance (P-HRM-I).
methodsTwenty-six experts with broad multidisciplinary backgrounds contributed their knowledge and experience to this initiative via a formal deliberative Delphi process. Guidance on a swallow assessment protocol as well as diagnostic criteria for UES dysfunction and pharyngeal contractile dysfunction is provided.
resultsFor UES dysfunction, the stepwise evaluation of UES and intrabolus pressure metrics under increasing bolus volume and/or viscosity conditions is used to confirm failure of manometric relaxation and opening of the UES region. For pharyngeal contractile dysfunction, the evaluation of contractile metrics is used to define pharyngeal hypocontractility or hypercontractility.
conclusionThese recommendations complement routine instrumental investigations and provide a standardized process, criteria, and nomenclature for P-HRM-I assessment of patients reporting symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia.
