Critical Analysis of the Applicability of Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy Performance Measures among 2 Portuguese Centers with Different Capsule Endoscopy Platforms.
Article in GE Portuguese journal of gastroenterology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) identified the need to benchmark the quality of small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) and produced a set of performance measures (PM). The aim of this study is to critically evaluate the accordance of the PM for SBCE in two Portuguese centers with different SBCE platforms. Methods: The authors conducted a cross-sectional analysis of consecutive SBCE performed in an 18-month period in 2 Portuguese centers that used two different SBCE platforms Mirocam® (IntroMedic, Seoul, South Korea) and PillCam® (Medtronic, Yokneam, Israel). A total of 10 PM (6 key, 4 minor) were evaluated and compared between the 2 centers. Results: A total of 493 SBCE were included. The minimum standard established by ESGE was reached in 3/6 key PM (complete visualization, lesion detection rate, and capsule retention rate), and none of the 4 minor PM. PM compliance significantly differed between the 2 centers: complete small bowel visualization 95.9 and 90% ( Conclusion: This study highlights and critically discusses technical and organizational issues that should be considered in defining more realistic PM thresholds, aiming to improve SBCE quality.
