MR-conditional steerable needle robot for intracerebral hemorrhage removal.
Article in International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery, 2019. 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
backgroundIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the deadliest forms of stroke in the USA. Conventional surgical techniques such as craniotomy or stereotactic aspiration disrupt a large volume of healthy brain tissue in their attempts to reach the surgical site. Consequently, the surviving patients suffer from debilitating complications.
methodsWe fabricated a novel MR-conditional steerable needle robot for ICH treatment. The robot system is powered by a custom-designed high power and low-cost pneumatic motor. We tested the robot's targeting accuracy and MR-conditionality performance, and performed phantom evacuation experiment under MR image guidance.
resultsExperiments demonstrate that the robotic hardware is MR-conditional; the robot has the targeting accuracy of 1.26 ± 1.22 mm in bench-top tests. With real-time MRI guidance, the robot successfully reached the desired target and evacuated an 11.3 ml phantom hematoma in 9 min.
conclusionMRI-guided steerable needle robotic system is a potentially feasible approach for ICH treatment by providing accurate needle guidance and intraoperative surgical outcome evaluation.
