1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Molecular imaging uses the molecular signature of cells for targeted minimally-invasive detection and characterization of gastrointestinal pathologies. Exogenous fluorescent agents serve as molecular beacons for visualization of specific surface markers or metabolic activity in the target tissue. Molecular imaging with radioactively labeled substances is well established in nuclear medicine for wide-field detection of lesions in the small intestine. In gastrointestinal endoscopy, both macroscopic detection by endogenous or exogenous fluorescence and microscopic visualization by endomicroscopy have been investigated in clinical trials, however have not yet been evaluated in larger patient cohorts. Still, molecular imaging has the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of gastrointestinal pathology and to impact on future clinical algorithms and science in gastroenterology.
