Automatic robot-world calibration in an optical-navigated surgical robot system and its application for oral implant placement.
Article in International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
purposeRobot-world calibration, used to precisely determine the spatial relation between optical tracker and robot, is regarded as an essential step for optical-navigated surgical robot system to improve the surgical accuracy. However, these methods are complicated with numerous computation. Therefore, a more efficient method of a robot-world calibration is necessary.
methodsA fully automatic robot-world calibration was proposed and applied in a surgical robot system for oral implant placement. Making full usage of the movement characteristics of a tandem robot, the least square fitting algorithm was implemented to calculate the relationship between the tool center point of the robot and the robot reference frame, with the robot-world calibration matrix obtained as result.
resultsThe experiment was designed to verify the accuracy of the robot-world calibration. The average distance deviation was 1.11 mm, and the average angle deviation was 0.99°. From the animal experiment on the pig maxilla, the entry, apical and angle deviation of the surgical robot system were 1.44 ± 1.01 mm, 1.68 ± 0.76 mm, 1.01 ± 1.06°, respectively.
conclusionThe surgical robot system for oral implant placement with our robot-world calibration maintains a high precision. Besides, the operation range of the surgical tool is no longer limited by the visual range of the optical tracking device. Hence, it is unnecessary to adjust the optical tracking device for the planned implant trajectories to different positions and directions.
