Robotic-assisted free-handed, full-thickness gastric GIST resection with primary repair in unfavorable locations.
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Complete R0 resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) of the stomach without signs of metastasis is highly reported, and the techniques for tumor resection have been evolving. Previously, laparoscopy was suggested to be safe only for GIST tumors < 2 cm. More recent reports demonstrate safety of resecting gastric GIST tumors laparoscopically > 5 cm even in unfavorable locations defined as GE junction, lesser curvature of gastric body, posterior wall of gastric body, and antrum. The most common resection method for gastric GIST resection is wedge resection, regardless if the surgery is completed open, laparoscopic, or robotically. Free-handed, full-thickness resection with primary repair is not commonly reported. This paper includes three cases of gastric GIST tumors in unfavorable locations resected robotically, free-handed, full-thickness resection with primary repair.
