Pyloric activity exhibits dynamic changes on EndoFLIP testing in gastroparesis. G-POEM increases maximal but not minimal diameter and distensibility with increased variations, suggesting this therapy enhances pyloric opening but may not impair pyloric closure. Phasic pyloric contractions contribute to variations in pyloric activity.
