Current status of robotic colorectal surgery.
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04200027 (Robotic vs. TaTME Rectal Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
To keep pace with the rapidly growing incidence of colorectal cancer, substantial progress has been made in colorectal cancer management in recent decades. Minimally invasive surgery is rapidly gaining acceptance for surgical management of colorectal cancer; however, laparoscopic colorectal surgery is technically demanding and has a steep learning curve. Although many colorectal surgeons have great expectations of the robotic surgical system to overcome the pitfalls of laparoscopic surgery, the application of robots in colorectal cancer surgery seems to be delayed when compared with other surgical fields. However, in recent years, there has been an increasing number of reports on robotic colorectal surgery and much attention is given to it in the colorectal community. Most of the interest has been in robotic total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer. In contrast, the use of robotics for colon resections does not confer significant advantages. We summarize the current evidence on clinical and oncologic outcomes of robotic colorectal surgery.
