Quality indicators in colonoscopies performed in digestive endoscopy services in northeast Brazil.

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
backgroundColorectal cancer is the third most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide. Colonoscopy is fundamental in reducing its incidence and mortality, provided it follows certain quality parameters. Examples of these quality parameters are the cecal intubation rate, adenoma detection rate (ADT), and the adequate percentage of patients with satisfactory bowel preparation.
aimsTo measure the quality parameters of a colonoscopy service in Northeast Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional, retrospective study, with data collected from electronic medical records, including screening colonoscopies between 2022 and 2024.
results565 colonoscopies were included in the study. The overall ADR was 24.78, 21.27% in women and 32.03% in men. The cecal intubation rate was approximately 95%, and most patients (91.3%) had excellent bowel preparation. The polyp detection rate was 39.47%.
conclusionsThe cecal intubation rate and the proportion of patients with adequate bowel preparation were satisfactory. However, the polyp detection rate was lower than recommended in the literature. Thus, evaluating these parameters is a way to monitor the quality of colorectal cancer prevention, improving the strategies employed, even in the face of the limitations encountered.
