Senhance robotic platform for gynecologic surgery: a review of literature.
Review in Updates in surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
The advantages of endoscopic procedures are well demonstrated in various surgical procedures. In this field, the technological improvement has been significant. One of the most relevant was made by the introduction of robotic surgery that, thanks to the instruments articulation and the precision of movement, made possible to perform even the most complex procedures. The terms "Alf-X" OR "Senhance" OR "robot" OR "robotic" were systematically used to search the PubMed and Scopus databases. The principal findings considered in the present review were: the study design, the number of patients included in each study, operative time, estimated blood loss (EBL), conversion rate to standard laparoscopy (SLPS) or laparotomy (LPT), post-operative complications, post-operative hospital stay, and the possible advantages and disadvantages reported by the authors of the studies. A total of eight studies were considered eligible for the present review. The average operative time for TH reported was 110-140 min. In two case-control studies, the operative time was significantly prolonged (P < 0.05) for robotic procedures when compared with SLPS. The EBL was ≤ 100 ml in all studies. Whereas no statistically significant differences were shown in the two case-control studies in terms of conversion to LPT, all studies were in accordance with the post-operative hospital stay, reporting an average of 2 days for total hysterectomy and 1 day for adnexal surgery.
