Predictors and characteristics of angioectasias in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding identified by video capsule endoscopy.
Article in United European gastroenterology journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
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
backgroundIn obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, angioectasias are common findings in video capsule endoscopy (VCE).
objectiveThe objective of this study was to identify predictors and characteristics of small bowel angioectasias.
methodsVideo capsule examinations between 1 July 2001 and 31 July 2011 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding were identified, and those with small bowel angioectasia were compared with patients without a definite bleeding source. Univariate and multivariable statistical analyses for possible predictors of small bowel angioectasia were performed.
resultsFrom a total of 717 video capsule examinations, 512 patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding were identified. Positive findings were reported in 350 patients (68.4%) and angioectasias were documented in 153 of these patients (43.7%). These angioectasias were mostly located in the proximal small intestine (
conclusionAngioectasias are the most common finding in VCE in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. They are mostly located in the proximal small bowel and are associated with higher age and an overt bleeding type.
