Distribution of manometric diagnosis in controls, EoE, and GERD patients. Weak peristalsis, frequent failed peristalsis, hypertensive peristalsis and rapid contraction with normal latency are present in the 3 groups of subjects in different proportions. The motility disorders were more frequent in EoE and GERD patients (p=0.02) but no significant difference was observed between EoE and GERD patients (p=0.61) The distribution of manometric diagnosis is also shown in the subgroup of GERD patients with negative esophageal biopsies and was not significantly different from that of the EoE patients (p=0.25).
