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
BACKGROUND/
aimsDigital chromoendoscopy has proven to be useful in the histological prediction of premalignant lesions in the colon. The aim of the study was to describe the diagnostic performance of Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic Classification in the histological differentiation of colonic lesions, applied by expert endoscopists and trainees. MATERIALS AND
methodsCross-sectional study that includes high-definition endoscopic images and histopathological reports of 94 patients over 50 years. Images were evaluated and classified as Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic 1, 2, or 3 by 2 experts and 2 trainee endoscopists, all of them blinded to histological results. Diagnostic accuracy for each Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category was calculated for trainees and expert endoscopists. Intra-observer agreement was evaluated by means of Cohen's kappa coefficient; meanwhile, inter-observer agreement was calculated by means of Fleiss' kappa.
resultsEvaluations performed by expert and trainee endoscopists showed a performance for Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category 1: sensitivity 62%, specificity 85%, area under receiver operator characteristic 0.73; Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category 2: sensitivity 61%, specificity 73%, area under receiver operator characteristic 0.66; and Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category 3: sensitivity 88%, specificity 91%, area under receiver operator characteristic 0.86. The total agreement of the evaluations was 72.5%, with an inter-observer variability of K 0.60 (95% CI 0.52-0.74). When the diagnostic performance for non-dysplastic lesions and dysplastic lesions (Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic 1 vs 2 and 3) was compared, we observed an increase in sensitivity for differentiated adenomas (Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic 2).
conclusionNarrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic Classification applied in the histological prediction of static images of colonic lesions has a good diagnostic performance for Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category 3, as well as an acceptable performance for Narrow-Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic category 1, with a moderate agreement among observers.
