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

rationaleColonic high-resolution manometry (cHRM) is an emerging clinical tool for defining colonic function in health and disease. Current analysis methods are conducted manually, thus being inefficient and open to interpretation bias.

objectiveThe main objective of the study was to build an automated system to identify propagating contractions and compare the performance to manual marking analysis.

methodscHRM recordings were performed on 5 healthy subjects, 3 subjects with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome, and 3 subjects with slow transit constipation. Two experts manually identified propagating contractions, from five randomly selected 10-min segments from each of the 11 subjects (72 channels per dataset, total duration 550 min). An automated signal processing and detection platform was developed to compare its effectiveness to manually identified propagating contractions. In the algorithm, individual pressure events over a threshold were identified and were then grouped into a propagating contraction. The detection platform allowed user-selectable thresholds, and a range of pressure thresholds was evaluated (2 to 20 mmHg). KEY

resultsThe automated system was found to be reliable and accurate for analyzing cHRM with a threshold of 15 mmHg, resulting in a positive predictive value of 75%. For 5-h cHRM recordings, the automated method takes 22 ± 2 s for analysis, while manual identification would take many hours.

conclusionsAn automated framework was developed to filter, detect, quantify, and visualize propagating contractions in cHRM recordings in an efficient manner that is reliable and consistent.
