Variation in small bowel transit time on capsule endoscopy.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
backgroundSmall bowel motility remains inadequately understood because of the complex and various functions as well as its anatomical position. The aimed of the study was to investigate the small bowel transit time (SBTT) of capsule endoscopy (CE) and to analyze the clinical factors affecting SBTT.
methodsSBTT was analyzed in patients who underwent small bowel CE. Factors contributing to SBTT and CE retention were investigated.
resultsAmong 397 patients enrolled in this study, 336 (84.6%) completed CE. The mean SBTT (± standard deviation) was 282.1±132.2 min. According to the univariate and multivariate analyses, aging and small bowel stenosis extended SBTT. In 38 patients who underwent multiple CE studies, considerable variation in SBTT were observed [mean of standard deviations (SDs) =97.97 min, SD of the SDs =81.99 min]. CE retention was observed in 61 patients (13.3%), and it was statistically associated to small bowel lesion.
conclusionsAging and small bowel stenosis were associated with longer SBTT. Furthermore, SBTT analyzed by CE should be interpreted carefully considering the intra-individual differences in SBTT.
