Comparing swallowing of capsule to endoscopic placement of capsule endoscopy in children.
Article in JGH open : an open access journal of gastroenterology and hepatology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05522101 (Mini-sized Magnetically Controlled Capsule Endoscopy vs. Normal-sized CE for Detection of Small Bowel in Children Under the Age of 10 Years：A Prospective，Multi-center，Randomized Controlled Trial), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimCapsule endoscopy (CE) offers a method of directly visualizing areas of the small bowel not accessible by conventional endoscopy. Some children are unable to swallow the capsule requiring endoscopic placement under general anesthesia. The aim of the present study was to identify any differences between children requiring endoscopic placement and those able to swallow the capsule.
methodsRetrospective chart review of consecutive CE in a tertiary pediatric center was conducted. Patient demographics, outcomes, and complications between the two groups were noted. Paired
resultsA total of 104 CEs were performed in 88 patients, median age 12.8 (range: 1.6-18.5) years. Almost half, 49% (51/104), swallowed the capsule. Children requiring endoscopic placement were significantly younger (9.8
conclusionsCE is safe and well tolerated in children. Children requiring endoscopic placement were significantly younger, lighter, had longer small intestine transit time, and less likely to have positive findings. Concurrent biopsies during capsule placement increase the likelihood of inadequate views but did not affect outcome or management.
