1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The oesophagogastric junction (EGJ) is a high-pressure zone consisting of the lower oesophageal sphincter (LES), distal oesophagus and crural diaphragm. Phasic electrical activity associated with phasic contractions has been demonstrated in the human distal oesophagus as well as in the dog proximal LES but is absent from the dog distal LES where phasic contractions are also absent. As electrical slow waves are dependent on activation of anoctamin 1 (ANO1) channels in interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), we hypothesized that differences in contractile activity between regions may be correlated to differences in ICC Ca
