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

Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) is a wireless technology used by gastroenterologists for various indications in their clinical practice. There has been significant improvement in this technology since its start about two decades ago. Specific video capsules have been made to evaluate the small bowel, colon, and esophagus. Now pan-enteric video capsule is available to assess both the small bowel and colon. VCE is a non-invasive procedure that has been tremendously evaluated for various gastrointestinal disorders, particularly small intestinal bleeding. There are specific contraindications and complications of VCE. This procedure has the technical part and video reading part. Newer software programs will come to reduce the reading time. Artificial intelligence is also coming for quick and accurate diagnosis of any positive findings during VCE. VCE is an important diagnostic test in the field of gastroenterology. Although it is an addition to optical endoscopic procedures to visualize the gastrointestinal mucosa, it has advantages and disadvantages.
