[How do we ensure quality in endoscopy?]
Review in Innere Medizin (Heidelberg, Germany), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
backgroundWith the increasing number of endoscopic examinations, the requirements for safety, hygiene and diagnostic precision are also growing. Quality assurance in endoscopy is of crucial importance not only to meet legal requirements but also to improve patient care. The current S2k guidelines for gastrointestinal endoscopy have brought this topic further into focus. RESEARCH QUESTION: The aim of this study is to examine the various dimensions of quality in endoscopy, in particular structural, procedural and outcome quality and to investigate the practical challenges of quality assurance using exemplary procedures. MATERIAL AND
methodsA literature search was carried out to identify relevant studies, meta-analyses and guidelines.
resultsQuality in endoscopy can be measured using various instruments. Ensuring high quality in endoscopy requires systematic evaluation of quality indicators, structured training and continuing education for endoscopists and the development of specialized centers. DISCUSSION: Innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and green endoscopy offer potential for improvement but also raise questions regarding data quality and ethical responsibility. Continuous updating of guidelines and the integration of new scientific findings are crucial for quality improvement in endoscopy.
