Current and Future of Robotic Surgery in Thyroid Cancer Treatment.
Review in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Thyroid cancer is among the most common endocrine malignancies, necessitating effective surgical interventions. Traditional open cervicotomy has long been the standard approach for thyroidectomy. However, the advent of robotic surgery has introduced new possibilities for minimally invasive procedures with benefits in terms of cosmetic outcomes, enhanced precision, comparable complication rates, and reduced recovery time. This study mainly reviewed the most widely used and well-known robotic thyroidectomy approaches: the transaxillary approach, the bilateral axillo-breast approach, and the transoral approach. This review examines the current status and future potential of robotic surgery in thyroid cancer treatment, comparing its efficacy, safety, and outcomes with those of conventional open cervicotomy. Challenges such as a longer operative time and higher costs exist. Future directions include technological advancements, tele-surgery, single-port surgery, and the integration of artificial intelligence. Robotic surgery holds promise in optimizing patient outcomes in thyroid cancer treatment.
