Capsule Endoscopy in the Diagnosis, Disease Mapping, and Monitoring of Treatment Response in Gastrointestinal Whipple's Disease.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Whipple's disease is a rare systemic infection causing malabsorption. Affected patients often undergo extensive investigation until final diagnosis with periodic acid-Schiff-positive histology. We present the case of a 73-year-old man diagnosed with Whipple's disease after a prolonged history, with a focus on capsule endoscopy (CE) in both mapping the extent of the pathology and follow-up. We demonstrate pre-treatment and post-treatment CE images, allowing visualization of resolved small bowel pathology, and demonstrate histological resolution. The early use of CE in the investigation of Whipple's disease may expedite diagnosis in patients with more distal bowel pathology and help assess disease severity.
