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

backgroundEffective pan-enteric capsule endoscopy (PCE) visualization requires thorough bowel preparation. We hypothesized that a novel low-volume protocol (LVP) provides comparable safety and effectiveness to the standard high-volume protocol (HVP).

aimTo evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel low-volume

methodsWe conducted an observational study including all prospectively documented PCEs at our tertiary center (2018-2021), comparing preparation adequacy and completion rates between patients receiving LVP

resultsOur analysis included 67 patients: 12 (17.9%) underwent PCE with HVP, and 55 (82.1%) with LVP. No post-PCE complications were reported. PCE completion was achieved by 89.1% of the LVP group and 75.0% of the HVP group. Adequate small bowel and colonic preparation rates were comparable between the HVP and LVP groups (90.9%

conclusionLVP is a safe and effective alternative to HVP with similar completion rates, better colonic preparation, and lower volume, making it preferable for patients with suspected or diagnosed Crohn's disease.
