Continuum Robots and Magnetic Soft Robots: From Models to Interdisciplinary Challenges for Medical Applications.
Review in Micromachines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This article explores the challenges of continuum and magnetic soft robotics for medical applications, extending from model development to an interdisciplinary perspective. First, we established a unified model framework based on algebra and geometry. The research progress and challenges in principle models, data-driven, and hybrid modeling were then analyzed in depth. Simultaneously, a numerical analysis framework for the principle model was constructed. Furthermore, we expanded the model framework to encompass interdisciplinary research and conducted a comprehensive analysis, including an in-depth case study. Current challenges and the need to address meta-problems were identified through discussion. Overall, this review provides a novel perspective on understanding the challenges and complexities of continuum and magnetic soft robotics in medical applications, paving the way for interdisciplinary researchers to assimilate knowledge in this domain rapidly.
