1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 the last decade, even thoracic surgery has seen an increase in the use of robotic surgical systems, and robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is considered one of the main issues. While RATS is associated with solo manipulative freedom and high-definition optical systems, several disadvantages, such as the lack of tactile sensation and difficult learning curves for the whole team, have been raised. Therefore, to overcome these issues, we developed a 'fusion surgery' approach combining a robotic procedure with manual maneuvers, where the table surgeon retracts the lung and staples the pulmonary vasculature and bronchus. Herein, we introduce our 'fusion surgery' procedure and elaborate on its advantage from technical and educational perspectives.
