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

The clinical indication for capsule endoscopy has expanded from small bowel evaluation to include esophagus or colon evaluation.Nevertheless, the role of capsule endoscopy in evaluation of the stomach is very limited because of the large volume and surface.However, efforts to develop an active locomotion system for capsule manipulation in detailed gastric evaluation are ongoing, becausethe technique is non-invasive, convenient, and safe, and requires no sedation. Studies have successfully reported gastric evaluation usinga magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy system. Advances in technology suggest that capsule endoscopy will have a major role notonly in the evaluation of gastric disorders but also in the pathologic diagnosis, intervention, and treatment of any gastrointestinal tractdisorder.
