Visualization modality for augmented reality guidance of in-depth tumour enucleation procedures.
Article in Healthcare technology letters. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Recent research studies reported that the employment of wearable augmented reality (AR) systems such as head-mounted displays for the in situ visualisation of ultrasound (US) images can improve the outcomes of US-guided biopsies through reduced procedure completion times and improved accuracy. Here, the authors continue in the direction of recent developments and present the first AR system for guiding an in-depth tumour enucleation procedure under US guidance. The system features an innovative visualisation modality with cutting trajectories that 'sink' into the tissue according to the depth reached by the electric scalpel, tracked in real-time, and a virtual-to-virtual alignment between the scalpel's tip and the trajectory. The system has high accuracy in estimating the scalpel's tip position (mean depth error of 0.4 mm and mean radial error of 1.34 mm). Furthermore, we demonstrated with a preliminary user study that our system allowed us to successfully guide an in-depth tumour enucleation procedure (i.e. preserving the safety margin around the lesion).
