Robotic omentectomy in gynecologic oncology: surgical anatomy, indications, and a technical approach.
Review in Journal of robotic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
An omentectomy is a standard component care of gynecological cancers, particularly for surgical staging and treatment for malignant ovarian neoplasms, borderline tumors, fallopian tube cancers, primary peritoneal cancers as well as certain histological subtypes of endometrial cancer. Traditionally, an omentectomy is performed by an open laparotomy approach, however, use of a robotic approach has gained popularity and has been proven to be both safe and effective. In spite of the advantages of robotic surgery compared to laparotomy, the inherent technical challenges of a robotic omentectomy may limit its uptake. In this article, we review (1) the physiology and surgical anatomy of the omentum, (2) the role of the omentum in immune regulation and oncogenesis, (3) indications for an omentectomy in the setting of gynecological malignancy, and (4) describe a step-by-step 3-arm technique for performing both a infracolic and gastrocolic omentectomy procedure using a robotic approach.
