Comparison of the vessel sealer Extend
Article in Gland surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundHarmonic ACE
methodsFrom December 2018 to March 2019, 35 consecutive patients underwent robotic BABA thyroidectomy, 20 using the VSE and 15 using the Harmonic device. Patient characteristics, pathologic results, and clinical outcomes, including complications, were evaluated.
resultsThe characteristics of patients in the two groups were similar. Surgical time from robot docking to completion of lobectomy was longer in the VSE than in the Harmonic group (45.00±9.52
conclusionsVSE can be safely applied to robotic BABA thyroid surgery.
