Enhancing Surgical Vision: Augmented Reality in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.
Review in Journal of medical extended reality, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Augmented reality (AR) technology has become widely established in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery. Over the past 20 years, numerous AR systems have been investigated and validated across the subspecialties, both in cadaveric and in live surgical studies. AR displays projected through head-mounted devices, microscopes, and endoscopes, most commonly, have demonstrated utility in preoperative planning, intraoperative guidance, and improvement of surgical decision-making. Specifically, they have demonstrated feasibility in guiding tumor margin resections, identifying critical structures intraoperatively, and displaying patient-specific virtual models derived from preoperative imaging, with millimetric accuracy. This review summarizes both established and emerging AR technologies, detailing how their systems work, what features they offer, and their clinical impact across otolaryngology subspecialties. As AR technology continues to advance, its integration holds promise for enhancing surgical precision, simulation training, and ultimately, improving patient outcomes.
