Short segment Barrett's esophagus—the need for standardization of the definition and of endoscopic criteria
Abstract
There has been a recent increase in abstracts and publications reporting intestinal metaplasia in the distal esophagus and cardia. The terms "short segment Barrett's esophagus," "intestinal metaplasia of the esophagogastric junction," and "intestinal metaplasia of the cardia" are being used to describe either similar or different entities. This review article deals with the current data on these issues, the definition of short segment Barrett's esophagus including the endoscopic and histologic criteria, the rationale for separating short segment Barrett's esophagus from intestinal metaplasia of the cardia, and a simple classification of intestinal metaplasia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
