Article in The Korean journal of helicobacter and upper gastrointestinal research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Esophageal motility disorders are relatively rare and are attributed to an imbalance between the excitatory and inhibitory nerves that innervate the esophagus. These disorders include achalasia, distal esophageal spasms, and jackhammer esophagus. The prevalence of achalasia is equal in men and women; however, lower esophageal hypermotility disorders are slightly more common in women. Women with achalasia experience chest pain more frequently, whereas men tend to have high lower esophageal sphincter pressure. Additionally, women with achalasia respond better to pneumatic balloon dilatation than men. However, research on sex and gender differences in the outcomes of peroral endoscopic myotomy remains insufficient. Future studies should investigate the differences in outcomes, complications, and long-term effects to ensure optimal treatment in men and women with esophageal motility disorders. This research will be useful to develop sex-tailored treatments for esophageal motility disorders.
