Factors related to bowel cleansing failure before colonoscopy: Results of the PACOME study.
Article in United European gastroenterology journal, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 18 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
backgroundThe factors associated with inadequate bowel cleansing leading to colonoscopy failure are not well known.
objectiveWe conducted a multicentre, prospective, observational case-control study in order to identify these factors.
methodsInvestigators included one patient with colonoscopy failure due to inadequate bowel cleansing (failure group) and the following patient with complete colonoscopy (success group). Data related to demographics, medical history, and preparation were collected and compared. Factors associated with bowel cleansing failure were identified by multivariate logistical regression analysis.
resultsA total of 101 gastroenterologists included 202 patients from 1 November 2009 to 15 January 2010. There was no difference between both groups with regards to baseline characteristics. In univariate analysis, factors significantly associated with bowel cleansing failure were vomiting during preparation (p = 0.0007), incomplete intake of the preparation (p = 0.002), and constipation (p = 0.02). Type and timing of preparation were not significantly different between groups. In multivariate analysis, incomplete intake of the preparation (OR 4.5, 95% CI 1.2-17.3), constipation (OR 4.2, 95% CI 1.2-14.9), and treatment with neuroleptics or antidepressants (OR 9.9 (95% CI 1.4-71.0) were independent predictors of colonoscopy failure.
conclusionsFactors associated with bowel cleansing failure were incomplete intake of the preparation, constipation, and treatment with psychotropic drugs. Interventions to reduce poor colonoscopy preparations should be targeted at these at-risk patients.
