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

Subretinal injection methods and other procedures for treating retinal conditions and diseases (many considered incurable) have been limited in scope due to limited human motor control. This study demonstrates the next generation, cooperatively controlled Steady-Hand Eye Robot (SHER 3.0), a precise and intuitive-to-use robotic platform achieving clinical standards for targeting accuracy and resolution for subretinal injections. The system design and basic kinematics are reported and a deflection model for the incorporated delta stage and validation experiments are presented. This model optimizes the delta stage parameters, maximizing the global conditioning index and minimizing torsional compliance. Five tests measuring accuracy, repeatability, and deflection show the optimized stage design achieves a tip accuracy of < 30
