Comparison of lobectomy performed through Toumai
Article in Translational lung cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Background: Robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is a safe and efficient minimally invasive thoracic approach compared to thoracotomy. Today, almost all thoracic procedures can be performed by RATS. In recent years, the Chinese government has issued some policies to support the development of domestic surgical robots, leading to the development of the Toumai Methods: Patients with early-stage NSCLC undergoing robotic-assisted lobectomy in our center between November 2021 and December 2021 were enrolled in the study; Surgeries were performed through the Toumai Results: The combined 19 patients from the Toumai Conclusions: The application of Toumai
