Review in Chirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
In recent years surgical robotic systems which were specifically developed for microsurgery have expanded the application of robotic-assisted surgery to plastic reconstructive surgery. Currently, there are two microsurgical robotic systems available for reconstructive plastic surgery. Both systems feature tremor reduction and motion scaling technologies, which are intended to optimize the surgeon's precision and dexterity. In the Department of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery at the University Hospital Zurich, the Symani Surgical System® has already been used for many microsurgical and supermicrosurgical operations, including autologous breast reconstruction, nerve transfer and, in particular, reconstructive lymphatic surgery. Despite special technical challenges, such as a lack of haptic feedback, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for an appropriately trained and skilled microsurgeon, including smaller surgical access incisions for anatomically deep structures and an improvement in surgical precision.
