Feasibility of articulating laparoscopic instrument use in laparoscopic adnexectomy: a multicenter prospective observational study.
Article in Gland surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: Ovarian cysts, common in women of reproductive age, often require surgical intervention, with minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery becoming the preferred method due to its reduced complications and faster recovery. Despite its benefits, challenges such as instrument collisions and operational difficulties limit the use of single- or two-port approaches. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic adnexa surgery using an articulating laparoscopic instrument, which offers flexible and ergonomic movements similar to robotic systems. Methods: This multicenter prospective observational study was conducted in South Korea and Taiwan. The electronic medical records of patients who underwent laparoscopic adnexectomy using the articulating laparoscopic instrument (ArtiSential Results: A total of 66 patients underwent laparoscopic adnexal surgery using the articulating instrument. The median age of the patients was 43 (range, 23-76) years, and the median body mass index (BMI) was 22.5 (range, 17.1-43.4) kg/m Conclusions: The results of this study demonstrated the feasibility of using the articulating laparoscopic instrument during laparoscopic adnexectomy.
