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

Background: The functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP), which utilizes impedance planimetry, has emerged as a valuable tool for a more comprehensive evaluation of esophageal physiology and pathophysiology beyond traditional high-resolution manometry. Summary: EndoFLIP, including its variations EndoFLIP and EsoFLIP, measures intraluminal distensibility and compliance by assessing diameter and distension pressure using balloon catheters. Key Messages: This technology is applicable to various organs such as the esophagus, stomach, and anorectal region, and serves in both diagnostic and therapeutic contexts, especially in ambiguous clinical cases.
