Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Myomectomy versus Abdominal Myomectomy for Large Myomas Sized over 10 cm or Weighing 250 g.
Article in Yonsei medical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeHere, we compared the operative and perioperative outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) and abdominal myomectomy (AM) in patients with large (>10 cm) or heavy myomas (>250 g). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe included 278 patients who underwent multi-port RALM (n=126) or AM (n=151) for large or heavy myomas in a tertiary care hospital between April 2019 and June 2020. The t-test, chi-square, Bonferroni's test, and multiple linear regression were used.
resultsNo differences were observed in age, body mass index, parity, or history of pelvic surgery between the two groups. Myoma diameters were not different (10.8±2.52 cm vs. 11.2±3.0 cm,
conclusionRALM is a feasible myomectomy technique even for large or heavy myomas. RALM patients tend to have shorter hospital stays and fewer postoperative fevers within 48 hours. However, RALM has longer total operating time.
