1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeStereo vision can provide surgeons with 3D images and reduce the difficulty of operation in robot-assisted surgery. In natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery, distortions of the stereoscopic images could be induced at different observation depths. This would increase the risk of surgery. We proposed a novel camera to solve this problem.

methodsThis study integrated the camera calibration matrix and the geometric model of stereoscopic system to find the cause of distortion. It was found that image distortions were caused by inappropriate disparity, and this could be avoided by changing the camera baseline. We found the relationship between camera baseline and observation depth with the model. A variable baseline stereoscopic camera with deployable structure was designed to achieve this requirement. The baseline could be adjusted to provide appropriate disparity.

resultsThree controlled experiments were conducted to verify the stereo vision of the proposed camera at different observation depths. No significant difference was observed in the completion time. At the observation depths of 30 mm and 90 mm, the number of errors apparently decreased by 62.90% and 51.06%, respectively.

conclusionsThe significant decrease in number of errors shows that the proposed camera has a better stereo vision than a regular camera at both small and large observation depths. It can produce more accurate stereoscopic images at any depth. This will further improve the safety of robot-assisted surgery.
