PREDICTIVE FACTORS FOR COMPLETE AND INCOMPLETE EVALUATION OF SMALL INTESTINE BY ENDOSCOPIC CAPSULE.
Observational study in Arquivos brasileiros de cirurgia digestiva : ABCD = Brazilian archives of digestive surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundResults of CE between groups with or without associated comorbidities. The small-bowel is the most difficult segment to be visualized by traditional endoscopic methods. The need for its exploration led to the development of capsule endoscopy. The percentage of the complete examination varies and still remains uncertain the factors that influence the complete and incomplete examination.
aimEvaluate the factors that interfere with the completeness of the endoscopic evaluation by the capsule.
methodsA prospective study in which were included 939 patients divided into two groups: complete group (CG) and incomplete group (IG). The studied variables that could interfere were: age, gender, comorbidities, diagnosis of Crohn's disease, previous abdominal surgery, inadequate preparation to compare the groups reached and did not reach the cecum.
resultsOf the 939 patients included 879 (93.3%) reached the cecum (CG) and 63 (6.7%) IG no. The IG was composed of 29 (46.0%) men and 34 (54.0%) women with a mean age of 49.7 years; comorbidities this group accounted for 46% of which 15.9% was Crohn's disease, previous abdominal surgery 22.2% and 17.5% inadequate preparation.
conclusionFactors associated with complete or incomplete outcome of the examination with capsule endoscopy were: associated comorbidities, Crohn's disease, previous abdominal surgery and inadequate preparation.
