First Case of Esophagectomy Using a Robotic Single-Port System for Laryngo-Esophagectomy.
Article in Journal of chest surgery, 2022. 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
A 58-year-old female patient was diagnosed with hypopharyngeal cancer with extension to the invasion of the upper esophagus. After 2 cycles of durvalumab as neoadjuvant therapy, total laryngo-esophagectomy using a single-port (SP) system via a subcostal incision was done. The operation was completed within 41 minutes, and the patient recovered without esophagectomy-related complications. The patient received total laryngectomy and esophagectomy using a robotic SP system via a 3-cm-long subcostal incision and gastric pull-up under laparotomy. During the postoperative period, the patient suffered from anastomotic leakage, but recovered with vacuum therapy. Here, we report the first successful human case of esophagectomy using an SP system.
