Feasibility of telesurgery in the modern era.
Article in The neuroradiology journal, 2022. 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
Telesurgery is not a foreign concept and dates to as early as the 1920s. The use of robots in medicine has had a very positive effect and improved outcomes with little to no adverse effects. Having global access to telemedicine and telesurgery during the COVID-19 pandemic and being able to provide top medical care to gravely ill and contagious patients without compromising the safety of the medical team would be a very big achievement. We explore the hurdles needed to make it a realistic goal and give recommendations to achieve it utilizing the major advancements that have occurred over the past few years in the fields of engineering, communication etc. The biggest issues needed to be addressed are of financial investment, legal concerns, and availability of high-speed uninterrupted data connections.
