Clinical significance of gastrointestinal patency evaluation by using patency capsule in Crohn's disease.
Article in Nagoya journal of medical science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Capsule endoscopy (CE) enables noninvasive visualization of the small bowel in Crohn's disease (CD), but should not be conducted in patients with bowel obstruction. Patency capsule (PC) can be ingested before conducting the CE examination to ensure patency of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of GI patency which the PC demonstrated. A retrospective review of the medical records was conducted with 99 consecutive patients with CD who underwent PC and CE at Nagoya University Hospital from January 2010 to May 2015. By using the Cox proportional hazards model, the association between the GI patency evaluated using the PC and the outcome in terms of the rate of patients who needed admission or surgery during the 2-year follow-up was examined. Of all 99 patients who ingested the PC, 84 (84.8%) were diagnosed as not having bowel obstruction, and therefore were eligible for CE (P group). Of the 15 patients in whom bowel obstruction was suspected (NP group), 12 patients underwent either the balloon-assisted endoscopy (n=10) or enteroclysis (n=2), and 11 were confirmed to have small bowel stricture. Non-admission rates of the P and NP groups during the 2-year observation period were 74/84 (88.0%) and 8/15 (53.3%), respectively (
