Safe Tissue Manipulation in Retinal Microsurgery via Motorized Instruments with Force Sensing.
Article in Proceedings of IEEE Sensors. IEEE International Conference on Sensors. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Retinal microsurgery involves careful manipulation of delicate tissues by applying very small amount of forces most of which lie below the tactile sensory threshold of the surgeons. Membrane peeling is a common task in this domain, where application of excessive peeling forces can easily lead to serious complications, hence needs to be avoided. To quantify tool-tissue interaction forces during retinal microsurgery, various force-sensing tools were developed based on fiber Bragg grating sensors, yet the most beneficial way of using the acquired force information is currently unknown. In this study, using a motorized force-sensing micro-forceps tool, we develop an assistive method that enhances safety during membrane peeling by automatically opening the forceps and releasing the tissue based on the detected peeling forces. Through peeling experiments using bandages, we demonstrate that our method can effectively maintain the peeling force at a safe level even in case of non-homogeneous adhesion properties of the membrane.
