Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy of initial cases using a 3D square-block type kidney model.
Article in Translational andrology and urology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundIt is extremely important to understand the local anatomy prior to performing appropriate and efficient robot-assisted partial nephrectomies (RAPNs).
methodsWe developed a personalized three-dimensional printed kidney model of square-block type to enhance our knowledge and understanding on the underlying anatomy during RAPN, and we consequently applied this model to six initial cases of RAPN.
resultsThe mean warm ischemic time was 18 minutes and the mean estimated blood loss was 59 mL. Only one patient presented with a minor complication, whereas all six patients included in this study were surgical margin negative.
conclusionsWe believe that this cost-effective model helped us in understanding the underlying local anatomy and facilitating an increased efficiency in the related surgery. Further studies are required to validate our preliminary results.
