Article in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The number of interventions using robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is increasing in Germany, following the previous international development. Robot-assisted surgery provides some technical advantages and can overcome existing limitations of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), especially in the case of extended resections, thus enabling the proportion of minimally invasive operations to be further increased. The safety of the procedure, even in extended resections, has repeatedly been demonstrated but whether there are clinically relevant benefits from RATS is currently the subject of scientific discussions. In addition, a further technical evolution of the RATS can be postulated by the upcoming market introduction of new robotic systems.
