“…We found four studies reporting the specific prevalence of JE in morbidly obese patients or patients undergoing evaluation for bariatric surgery, 34‐37 six in patients with systemic sclerosis 38‐43 and four in postlung transplant patients 44‐47 (Figure 3). When compared to the prevalence of JE in the unselected general symptomatic population referred for HRM, diagnoses of JE were significantly more frequent in morbidly obese patients (5.18% [95% CI: 1.76%‐14.3%]; P = .009) and in postlung transplant patients undergoing HRM (23.99% [95% CI: 9.00%‐38.97%]; P < .001).…”

Background: Jackhammer esophagus (JE) is a newly described esophageal motility disorder. However, there are limited data on JE and this entity remains misunderstood. Methods: We performed a systematic review of clinical series on JE through MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science. Data from included studies were then extracted, and random-effects meta-analyses were performed. Results: Thirty-eight studies met inclusion criteria. The pooled prevalence of JE was 1.97% [95% CI: 1.39%-2.78%] among patients referred for high-resolution manometry (HRM). The mean age at diagnosis was 60.8 years [95% CI: 57.1-64.4] and 65% [95% CI: 58%-72%] of patients were female. JE was significantly more prevalent in postlung transplant patients and morbidly obese patients undergoing HRM (23.99% [95% CI: 9.00%-38.97%] and 5.18% [95% CI: 1.76%-14.3%] respectively). Dysphagia was the most common presentation of JE (64% [95% CI: 52%-77%]) followed by gastroesophageal reflux disease (46% [95% CI: 26%-67%]). The pooled mean distal contractile integral (DCI) of all standard HRM swallows was 9249 mm Hg•s•cm [95% CI: 7834-10 663], and the pooled mean integrated relaxation pressure (IRP) was 13.9 mm Hg [95% CI: 8.2-19.7]. Overall, 73.6% [95% CI: 64.0%-83.1%] of JE patients who underwent treatment achieved clinical symptom improvement (79% [95% CI: 74%-85%] for endoscopic treatment and 63% [95% CI: 47%-79%] for medical treatment). The pooled clinical success rate of peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) specifically was 82% [95% CI: 75%-90%]. Conclusions: JE is a new motility disorder most commonly presenting with dysphagia. High clinical suspicion is important because the diagnosis can only be made through HRM.
