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.

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
Accurate localization of wireless capsule endoscopy is essential for reliable gastrointestinal diagnosis, yet magnetic tracking systems are often degraded by sensor distortions, misalignment, and patient motion in wearable settings. This study presents a magnetic localization framework that combines cylindrical magnetic field modelling with neural network-based sensor calibration to improve robustness under wearable operating conditions. By exploiting the structural properties of cylindrical magnetic field representations, the proposed approach decouples axial and transverse components of the magnetic field, enabling staged estimation of magnetic capsule position and orientation with improved numerical stability. A data-driven calibration model is employed to compensate for nonlinear sensor distortions arising from hard-iron effects, soft-iron effects, and dynamic misalignment. Experimental validation using a four-sensor wearable array demonstrates a mean static localization error of 0.12 cm and [Formula: see text], and a dynamic localization error of 0.20 cm and [Formula: see text], indicating improved performance under both stable and motion-affected conditions. These results suggest that accurate and robust magnetic capsule localization can be achieved with a minimal sensor configuration, supporting practical implementation in wearable capsule endoscopy systems.
