Prospective study of diagnostic yields of flexible spectral imaging color enhancement installed in colon capsule endoscopy for colorectal polyps and tumors.

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 AND
aimsWe prospectively determined the efficacy of flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE) used with second-generation colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) for colorectal polyps and tumors (CRTs).
methodsThis study included optical colonoscopy within 4 months after CCE. Two colonoscopists independently reviewed CCE using white-light images (CCE-WL) and CCE using FICE images (CCE-FICE), respectively. Based on colonoscopic findings as the criterion standard, the diagnostic accuracy for CRTs was compared between CCE-WL and CCE-FICE.
resultsOf 89 enrolled patients (65 men and 24 women; 75 with CRTs including 36 with serrated lesions, 63 with adenomas, and 9 with adenocarcinomas), the per-patient detectability of CCE-FICE for the representative CRTs was significantly higher than that of CCE-WL: overall CRTs (CCE-WL, 79%; CCE-FICE, 88%; P = .0001), 6- to 9-mm CRTs (CCE-WL, 63%; CCE-FICE, 94%; P = .0055), and ≥6-mm CRTs (CCE-WL, 78%; CCE-FICE, 93%; P = .0159). The per-lesion sensitivity of CCE-FICE was significantly higher than that of CCE-WL for CRTs: overall (CCE-WL, 61%; CCE-FICE, 79%; P < .0001), <6 mm (CCE-WL, 53%; CCE-FICE, 69%; P < .0001), 6- to 9-mm CRTs (CCE-WL, 65%; CCE-FICE, 93%; P = .0007), slightly elevated CRTs (CCE-WL, 53%; CCE-FICE, 75%; P < .0001), tubular adenomas (CCE-WL, 61%; CCE-FICE, 79%; P < .0001), and serrated polyps (CCE-WL, 57%; CCE-FICE, 74%; P = .0022). Both modes detected all adenocarcinomas. No significant differences were found between CCE-WL and CCE-FICE of the per-lesion sensitivity for ≥10-mm CRTs (CCE-WL, 81%; CCE-FICE, 94%; P = .1138) or protruding CRTs (CCE-WL, 77%; CCE-FICE, 86%; P = .0614). Kappa coefficients for overall CRTs for CCE-WL and CCE-FICE were .66 and .64, respectively, which indicated substantial agreement.
conclusionsCCE-FICE improved the detection rates for all CRTs except adenocarcinomas, ≥10-mm polyps, and protruding polyps when compared with CCE-WL. (Clinical trial registration number: UMIN 000021125.).
