Direct visualization of drug behaviors in the upper GI tract via magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy.
Article in VideoGIE : an official video journal of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04327869 (Feasibility of Using Magnetically-controlled Capsule Endoscopy for Direct Visualization of Drug Behavior in Upper-gastrointestinal Tract), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsActual behaviors of drugs in the upper GI tract are not well elucidated. We assess the feasibility of magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE) in direct and real-time visualization of oral drug behaviors in the stomach.
methodsFrom November 2019 to December 2019, 9 patients with a recent history of upper GI symptoms and 10 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. Participants swallowed magnetically controlled capsules to examine the whole stomach. After baseline examination, participants ingested dyed sucralfate gel, and MCE recorded the adhesion time, retention time, and distribution area of sucralfate gel. Outcomes included behaviors of sucralfate gel, safety, and satisfaction assessment of the procedures.
resultsAdhesion time of sucralfate gel in the abdominal symptoms group was significantly shorter than in the healthy control group (23.76 ± 1.37 minutes vs 31.96 ± 3.09 minutes;
conclusionsMCE is a feasible and noninvasive tool for direct and real-time visualization of drug behaviors (eg, sucralfate gel) in the stomach. (ClinicalTrials.gov. ID: NCT04327869.).
