Augmented and Virtual Reality for Preoperative Trauma Planning, Focusing on Orbital Reconstructions: A Systematic Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 3 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
backgroundThis systematic review summarizes recent literature on the use of extended reality, including augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), and virtual reality (VR), in preoperative planning for orbital fractures.
methodsA systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane on 6 April 2023. The included studies compared extended reality with conventional planning techniques, focusing on computer-aided surgical simulation based on Computed Tomography data, patient-specific implants (PSIs), fracture reconstruction of the orbital complex, and the use of extended reality. Outcomes analyzed were technical accuracy, planning time, operative time, complications, total cost, and educational benefits.
resultsA total of 6381 articles were identified. Four articles discussed the educational use of VR, while one clinical prospective study examined AR for assisting orbital fracture management.
conclusionAR was demonstrated to ameliorate the accuracy and precision of the incision and enable the better identification of deep anatomical tissues in real time. Consequently, intraoperative imaging enhancement helps to guide the orientation of the orbital reconstruction plate and better visualize the precise positioning and fixation of the PSI of the fractured orbital walls. However, the technical accuracy of 2-3 mm should be considered. VR-based educational tools provided better visualization and understanding of craniofacial trauma compared to conventional 2- or 3-dimensional images.
