Wireless Capsule Endoscopy for Diagnosis and Management of Post-Operative Recurrence of Crohn's Disease.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Despite aggressive medical therapy, many patients with Crohn's disease require surgical intervention over time. After surgical resection, disease recurrence is common. Ileo-colonoscopy and the Rutgeerts score are commonly used for diagnosis and monitoring of post-operative endoscopic recurrence. The latter is the precursor of clinical recurrence and therefore it impacts prognosis and patient management. However, due to the limited length of bowel assessed by ileo-colonoscopy, this procedure can miss out-of-reach, more proximal lesions in the small bowel. This limitation introduces an important uncertainty when evaluating post-operative relapse by ileo-colonoscopy. In addition, the Rutgeerts score 'per se' bears a number of ambiguities. Here we will discuss the pros and cons of ileo-colonoscopy and other imaging studies including wireless capsule endoscopy to diagnose and manage post-operative recurrence of Crohn's disease. A number of studies provide evidence that wireless capsule endoscopy is a potentially more accurate as well as less invasive and less costly alternative to conventional techniques including ileo-colonoscopy.
