Robotic-assisted systems for the safe and reliable treatment of femoral neck fractures: retrospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
backgroundRobots are being used in a wide range of surgical procedures. However, in clinical practice, the efficacy of orthopedic robotic-assisted treatment of femoral neck fractures is still poorly reported, particularly in terms of screw placement accuracy, femoral neck fracture healing rates and postoperative functional recovery. Moreover, there is a lack of comparative analysis between robot-assisted surgery and traditional surgical approaches. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of patients with femoral neck fractures treated with TiRobot-assisted hollow screw fixation with those of patients with femoral neck fractures treated with traditional surgical approaches.
methodsThis study included 112 patients with femoral neck fracture who were treated from March 2017 to October 2021 with percutaneous hollow screw internal fixation. These included 56 cases in the TiRobot-assisted surgery group and 56 cases in the standard surgery group. After at least 1 year of follow-up, the treatment outcomes of the two groups were compared, including the amount of intraoperative bleeding, the duration of intraoperative fluoroscopy, the number of guide pin positioning adjustments, the length of hospital stay, the accuracy rate of screw placement, the final Harris Hip Score, the fracture healing rate, and the rate of femoral head necrosis. Statistical analysis software was used to process and analyze the result.
resultsThe TiRobot-assisted group had a statistically significant improvement over the control group in terms of intraoperative bleeding, the duration of intraoperative fluoroscopy, the number of guide pin positioning adjustments, length of hospital stay, accuracy of screw placement and incidence of femoral head necrosis (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in time to surgery, final Harris hip score and fracture healing rate (P > 0.05).
conclusionThis study shows that TiRobot-assisted surgery has the advantages of short hospital stay, high safety, minimally invasive, high success rate of nail placement, and can reduce the amount of intraoperative radiation and the incidence of femoral head necrosis, thus achieving satisfactory clinical outcomes, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
