1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) enables a comprehensive, non-invasive, and painless evaluation of the colon, although it still has limited indications. The lengthy reading times hinder its wider implementation, a drawback that could potentially be overcome through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) models. Studies employing AI, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), demonstrate great promise in using CCE as a viable option for detecting certain diseases and alterations in the colon, compared to other methods like colonoscopy. Additionally, employing AI models in CCE could pave the way for a minimally invasive panenteric or even panendoscopic solution. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the current state-of-the-art of AI in CCE while also addressing the challenges, both technical and ethical, associated with broadening indications for AI-powered CCE. Additionally, it also gives a brief reflection of the potential environmental advantages of using this method compared to alternative ones.
