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

objectiveThe endoscopic findings associated with DATA SOURCES: The databases of MEDLINE and Embase, clinicalTrials.gov and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched for relevant studies from October 1999 to October 2019.

methodsA bivariate random effects model was used to produce pooled diagnostic accuracy calculations for each of the studied endoscopic findings. Diagnostic odds ratios and sensitivity and specificity characteristics were calculated to identify significant predictors of

resultsMeta-analysis included 4380 patients in 15 studies. The most significant predictor of an

conclusionThe regular arrangement of collecting venules, mucosal oedema, diffuse redness and map-like redness are important endoscopic findings for determining
