Figure 3 Correlations between small bowel transit time and diagnostic yield.
A: Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB; r = 0.54, P < 0.01); B: Suspected Crohn’s disease (r = -0.40); C: Polyposis plus carcinoid (r = 0.56, P < 0.01); D: Other indications (r = 0.90, P < 0.01), shown by the black line. The trend of this correlation is shown by the red line. DY: Diagnostic yield; SBTT: Small bowel transit time.
