Manometry findings before and after eosinophilic esophagitis treatment.

References	N	Treatment	Manometric findings before treatment	Manometric findings after treatment
Landres et al. (23)	1	Myotomy	Vigorous achalasia	Normalised peristalsis and LES pressure
Hempel (52)	1	Systemic steroids	Low LES and DES	Low LES; normalised peristalsis
Lucendo (43)	1	Fluticasone	Hypomotility	80% normalised
Lucendo (44)	12	Fluticasone	High amplitude contractions in 3, severe abnormal peristalsis and 1 with mildly abnormal peristalsis	7 had ongoing manometric abnormalities but all improved
Nennstiel (30)	20	Budesonide	Early pan-esophageal pressurisation 3 (15%) Compartmentalised esophageal pressurisations 1 (5%) Frequently failed peristalsis 1 (5%) Weak peristalsis 2 (10%) Elevated IBP in 20%	Reduction of IBP in 55% of patients Resolution in 6/7 patients with manometric findings (no improvement in frequently failed peristalsis)
Tanaka (53)	1	Systemic steroids Myotomy	Jackhammer esophagus	No change after steroids; resolution after myotomy
