Three-Dimensional, computer simulated navigation in endoscopic neurosurgery.
Article in Interdisciplinary neurosurgery : Advanced techniques and case management, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundIn order to address the pre- and perioperative need for visualization and prediction of patient-specific anatomy for surgical planning, endoscopic neurosurgeons have increasingly relied on computerized navigation devices to guide their surgical approaches.
objectiveThis manuscript aims to review: 1) the use of neuronavigation in endoscopic neurosurgery for pre-operative planning, 2) the intraoperative advantages of neuronavigation in endoscopic neurosurgery, and 3) the effects of navigation guidance on operative time, registration accuracy, brain shift, and avoidance of complications. Limitations of the current neuroendoscopic navigation literature will be discussed.
methodsWe conducted a search using PubMed-MEDLINE; the keywords "stereotactic navigation AND endoscopic surgery" and "simulation AND endoscopic neurosurgery". 36 studies were identified that addressed the use of neuronavigation in endoscopic neurosurgery. These studies were then further analyzed for topics relevant to computerized neuroendoscopy and reviewed for the purposes of this article.
conclusionThree-dimensional, frameless neuronavigation systems are useful in endoscopic neurosurgery to assist in the pre-operative planning of potential trajectories and to help localize the pathology of interest. Neuronavigation appears to be
