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

backgroundPoor bowel preparation is commonly observed in inpatients undergoing colonoscopy, particularly those with higher risks for inadequate bowel preparation.

aimsThe objective of this study was to determine whether personalized bowel preparation regimens combined with face-to-face instruction (FFI) could improve the quality of bowel preparation for inpatient.

methodsIn this endoscopist-blinded, randomized controlled trial, 320 inpatients were enrolled and randomly allocated (1:1) to the control and intervention groups. The intervention group received FFI and personalized bowel preparation regimens, while the control group received the routine bowel preparation regimen and education. The primary outcome was adequate bowel preparation rate. Secondary outcomes included rates of procedure-related adverse events, incorrect diet restriction and laxative intake, etc.

resultsThe adequate bowel preparation rate in the intervention group was significantly higher compared to control group [intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis: 70.0% vs 51.3%, P < 0.001; per-protocol (PP) analysis: 79.4% vs 58.6%, P < 0.001]. Bowel cleanliness was significantly improved in high-risk inpatients (ITT analysis: 65% vs 44.6%, P = 0.004; PP analysis: 73.0% vs 51.7%, P = 0.004) and in low-risk inpatients (ITT analysis: 80% vs 62.7%, P = 0.037; PP analysis: 92.3% vs 69.8%, P = 0.003). There were no significant differences between two groups regarding procedure-related adverse events.

conclusionsPersonalized bowel preparation regimens combined with FFI improve the rate of adequate bowel preparation, especially for patients with high-risk factors. As such, inpatients could benefit from this novel approach for better bowel preparation to ultimately improve the quality of colonoscopies.
