A Deeper Look at the Small Bowel: Training Pathways in Video Capsule Endoscopy and Device-Assisted Enteroscopy.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 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
backgroundAlthough there are guidelines for video capsule endoscopy (VCE) and device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE), little is known about fellowship training in these technologies.
aimsThe aims were to better characterize current small bowel endoscopy training in 3-year GI fellowship programs and 4th-year advanced endoscopy programs in the U.S.
methodsWe developed an online multiple-choice survey to assess current GI fellowship program training in small bowel endoscopy. The survey was distributed via email to GI fellowship program directors in the U.S.
resultsOf the 168 program directors contacted, 59 responded (response rate = 35.1%). There was no statistically significant difference in the availability of VCE or DAE between respondents and non-respondents. VCE training was universally available in 3-year training programs, with 84.8% (50/59) requiring it for fellows. The majority of 3-year GI fellows graduated with independence in VCE: 83.1% (49/59) of programs reported "most" or "all" graduates were able to read independently. DAE techniques were available in 86.4% of training programs (51/59). Training in DAE was more limited and shared between 3-year and 4th-year programs: 12.1% (7/58) of 3-year programs required training in DAE and 22.9% (8/35) of 4th-year programs required training in DAE .
conclusionsTraining in VCE is widely available in U.S. GI fellowship programs, although programs have different ways of incorporating this training into the curriculum and of measuring competency. While DAE technology was available in the majority of programs, training was less frequently available, and training is shared between 3-year fellowship programs and 4th-year advanced endoscopy programs .
