Semiautomated intraocular laser surgery using handheld instruments.
Article in Lasers in surgery and medicine, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveIn laser retinal photocoagulation, hundreds of dot-like burns are applied. We introduce a robot-assisted technique to enhance the accuracy and reduce the tedium of the procedure. MATERIALS AND
methodsLaser burn locations are overlaid on preoperative retinal images using common patterns such as grids. A stereo camera/monitor setup registers and displays the planned burn locations overlaid on real-time video. Using an active handheld micromanipulator, a 7 x 7 grid of burns spaced 650 microm apart is applied to both paper slides and porcine retina in vitro using 30 milliseconds laser pulses at 532 nm. Two scenarios were tested: unaided, in which the micromanipulator is inert and the laser fires at a fixed frequency, and aided, in which the micromanipulator actively targets burn locations and the laser fires automatically upon target acquisition. Error is defined as the distance from the center of the observed burn mark to the preoperatively selected target location.
resultsAn experienced retinal surgeon performed trials with and without robotic assistance, on both paper slides and porcine retina in vitro. In the paper slide experiments at an unaided laser repeat rate of 0.5 Hz, error was 125+/-62 microm with robotic assistance and 149+/-76 microm without (P < 0.005), and trial duration was 70+/-8 seconds with robotic assistance and 97+/-7 seconds without (P < 0.005). At a repeat rate of 1.0 Hz, error was 129+/-69 microm with robotic assistance and 166+/-91 microm without (P < 0.005), and trial duration was 26+/-4 seconds with robotic assistance and 47+/-1 seconds without (P < 0.005). At a repeat rate of 2.0 Hz on porcine retinal tissue, error was 123+/-69 microm with robotic assistance and 203+/-104 microm without (P < 0.005).
conclusionRobotic assistance can increase the accuracy of laser photocoagulation while reducing the duration of the operation.
