Body-Mounted Robotics for Interventional MRI Procedures.
Article in IEEE transactions on medical robotics and bionics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This paper reports the development and initial cadaveric evaluation of a robotic framework for MRI-guided interventions using a body-mounted approach. The framework is developed based on modular design principles. The framework consists of a body-mounted needle placement manipulator, robot control software, robot controller, interventional planning workstation, and MRI scanner. The framework is modular in the sense that all components are connected independently, making it readily extensible and reconfigurable for supporting the clinical workflow of various interventional MRI procedures. Based on this framework we developed two body-mounted robots for musculoskeletal procedures. The first robot is a four-degree of freedom system called ArthroBot for shoulder arthrography in pediatric patients. The second robot is a six-degree of freedom system called PainBot for perineural injections used to treat pain in adult and pediatric patients. Body-mounted robots are designed with compact and lightweight structure so that they can be attached directly to the patient, which minimizes the effect of patient motion by allowing the robot to move with the patient. A dedicated clinical workflow is proposed for the MRI-guided musculoskeletal procedures using body-mounted robots. Initial cadaveric evaluations of both systems were performed to verify the feasibility of the systems and validate the clinical workflow.
