Small bowel cleanliness in capsule endoscopy: a case-control study using validated artificial intelligence algorithm.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) may need to be performed immediately after colonoscopy without additional bowel preparation if active small bowel diseases are suspected. However, it is unclear whether the small bowel cleanliness is adequately maintained even after SBCE is performed immediately after colonoscopy. We compared the small bowel cleanliness scores of the study group (SBCE immediately after colonoscopy) and control group (SBCE alone) using a validated artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm (cut-off score > 3.25 for adequate). Cases of SBCE in which polyethylene glycol was used were included retrospectively. Among 85 enrolled cases, 50 cases (58.8%) were the study group. The mean time from the last dose of purgative administration to SBCE was 6.86 ± 0.94 h in the study group and 3.00 ± 0.18 h in the control group. Seventy-five cases (88.2%) were adequate small bowel cleanliness, which was not different between the two groups. The mean small bowel cleanliness score for the study group was 3.970 ± 0.603, and for the control group was 3.937 ± 0.428. In the study group, better colon preparation resulted in a higher small bowel cleanliness score (p = 0.015). Small bowel cleanliness was also adequately maintained in SBCE immediately after colonoscopy. There was no difference between the time and volume of purgative administration and small bowel cleanliness.
