Trial reportSurgical endoscopy2020
A prospective, randomized controlled study of the safety and efficacy of gasless bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) robotic thyroidectomy.
Trial report in Surgical endoscopy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundDuring bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) robotic thyroidectomy (RoT), carbon dioxide (CO PATIENTS AND
methodsWe performed a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing conventional BABA RoT to gasless BABA RoT (CO
resultsWe found no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of any demographic or baseline characteristic. The clinicopathological and oncological outcomes did not differ significantly between the two groups, but the operation time was longer for the gasless group (187.50 ± 42.64 vs. 212.50 ± 35.88 min; P = 0.028). In terms of the hemodynamic, metabolic, and pain parameters, the pH fell significantly less in the gasless group (P = 0.047), but there were no significant between-group differences in the HR, MAP, CO, CI, PaCO
conclusionThe new, gasless BABA RoT technique employing the da Vinci robotic surgical system is safe. Although metabolic changes during operation are thereby minimized, gasless BABA RoT should be used carefully when engaging in thyroid surgery; more experience is required.
