Clinical efficacy of peroral endoscopic myotomy treatment performed in patients diagnosed with achalasia.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 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
objectiveAchalasia is a movement disorder of the esophagus that continues with chest pain, dysphagia, weight loss, regurgitation of undigested foods, recurrent aspiration and night cough.
methodsWeight loss, presence of dysphagia, presence of retrosternal pain and regurgitation were recorded before POEM treatment and preoperative Eckardt Score was calculated and recorded. Patients were recorded at the 6
resultsThe change between the postoperative and preoperative values of the patients was calculated as ∆ value. As a result of the examination, no significant difference was found between the values ∆weight loss, ∆dysphagia, ∆retrosternal pain, ∆regurgitation and ∆Eckardt score and gender variable (respectively, p=0.112; p=0.412; p=0.619; p=0.171; p=0.092). Postoperative weight loss, dysphagia, retrosternal pain, regurgitation and Eckardt score values were found to be lower than preoperative values. (respectively, p<0.001;p<0.001; p<0.001; p<0.001; p<0.001).
conclusionPeroral endoscopic myotomy treatment is an effective treatment method with its being more reliable, lower complication risk, being less invasive and with postprocedural and clinical results.
