Application of indocyanine green (ICG)-guided surgery in clinical practice: lesson to learn from other organs-an overview on clinical applications and future perspectives.
Review in Updates in surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 31 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence-guided surgery is a modality of intra-operative navigation that might support the surgeon with enhanced visualization of anatomical structures in real time. Over the last years, it has emerged as one of the most promising and rapidly developing technical innovations in surgery. The most popular current clinical applications include fluorescence cholangiography, bowel anastomotic perfusion assessment, fluorescence-guided lymphography for sentinel lymph-node identification and guided lymphadenectomy and the possible use in oncological surgery for the identification and localization of tumors and the diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal carcinosis. This paper provides an overview of the multiple fields of applications of ICG fluorescence-guided surgery in visceral and oncological surgery, discussing indications summarizing most recent and significative available literature and giving technical notes of use.
