Development and clinical usefulness of a unique red dichromatic imaging technology in gastrointestinal endoscopy: A narrative review.
Review in Therapeutic advances in gastroenterology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) allows real-time high-contrast imaging of a targeted lesion without any special equipment. Among various IEE technologies, narrow-band imaging, in which a light of shorter wavelength is used, emphasizes the surface and blood vessel patterns on the mucosal surface. This technology has been widely used in endoscopic diagnosis in the gastrointestinal tract. Red dichromatic imaging (RDI) was recently developed; it utilizes lights of longer wavelengths (520-550, 595-610, and 620-640 nm), which have weak light scattering characteristics in contrast to narrow-band imaging. RDI was designed to enhance the visibility of deep-lying blood vessels and areas of bleeding, and it has been installed in the latest Olympus endoscopy system, EVIS X1, as an advanced version of the optical-digital method that was originally developed. Improving the visibility of deep blood vessels allows more accurate evaluation of esophageal varices and the degree of inflammation in ulcerative colitis. Easier identification of a bleeding source makes hemostasis quicker and easier to accomplish during endoscopic resection procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection and peroral endoscopic myotomy as well as during treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding from a peptide ulcer or colon diverticulum. The authors herein review the technological development and principles, review the existing literature on RDI, and discuss the utility and effectiveness of this unique IEE technology in gastrointestinal endoscopy.
