Pylorus Endoluminal Functional Luminal Imaging Probe Measurements in Children Are Determined by Age and Are Distinctly Different From Adult Values.

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
Background/Aims: : The pylorus muscles are known to play a vital role in the process of gastric emptying and are directly implicated in symptom associated with delayed gastric drainage. Endoluminal functional luminal imaging probe (EndoFLIP) can predict clinical response to pylorus directed therapy in symptomatic children and adults. Normal pylorus EndoFLIP values are available for adult but not in children. We aim to assess the impact of age on pediatric pyloric EndoFLIP values. Methods: : Retrospective review of all children who underwent pylorus EndoFLIP in Evelina London Children's Hospital from July 2022 to March 2025. Results: : One hundred and sixty-nine EndoFLIP values were collected from 29 children, 35% females. Mean age was 8.5 ± SD (± 4.1), children reported at least 1 symptom of impaired gastric emptying. EndoFLIP values appeared to cluster in age ranges 0-4, 4-8 and > 8 years with diameter significantly different. There was no correlation with weight range. At balloon volume of 40 mL, abdominal distension after feeding positively correlated with distensibility ( Conclusion: : Pediatric pylorus EndoFLIP values are determined by age but not weight and they correlate with symptoms of impaired gastric emptying. Adults normal values are not applicable to children. There is a need to set up a separate pediatric protocol for pylorus EndoFLIP.
