Magnetic Actuation for Wireless Capsule Endoscopy in a Large Workspace Using a Mobile-Coil System.
Article in Micromachines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Current wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is limited in the long examination time and low flexibility since the capsule is passively moved by the natural peristalsis. Efforts have been made to facilitate the active locomotion of WCE using magnetic actuation and localization technologies. This work focuses on the motion control of the robotic capsule under magnetic actuation in a complex gastrointestinal (GI) tract environment in order to improve the efficiency and accuracy of its motion in dynamic, complex environments. Specifically, a magnetic actuation system based on a four-electromagnetic coil module is designed, and a control strategy for the system is proposed. In particular, the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control parameters and current values are optimized online and in real time using the adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm. In this paper, both simulations and real-world experiments were conducted using acrylic plates with irregular shapes to simulate the GI tract environment for evaluation. The results demonstrate the potential of the proposed control methods to realize the accurate and efficient inspection of the intestine using active WCE. The methods presented in this paper can be integrated with current WCE to improve the diagnostic accuracy and efficiency of the GI tract.
