A systematic review and meta-analysis compared the safety and effectiveness of the AirSeal system with traditional pneumoperitoneum systems in robot-assisted laparoscopic urologic surgery.
Synthesis in Journal of robotic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07782580 (Low-Pressure AirSeal Versus Conventional Insufflation in Major Minimally Invasive Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery - A Randomized Controlled Trial), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze perioperative results in robot-assisted laparoscopic urological surgeries, comparing the AirSeal system with traditional pneumoperitoneum systems. This study adhered to the PRISMA guidelines for conducting systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Extensive searches were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, and Google Scholar, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies up to June 15, 2024. A combined examination of the studies found that the AirSeal system had superior results in terms of surgery duration, end-tidal carbon dioxide levels, and tidal volume compared to the traditional pneumoperitoneum system. During robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy, the AirSeal team experienced a notable decrease in surgical time, ETCO2, and VT. In addition, the occurrence of SCE was lower in the AirSeal group. However, there were no significant differences observed between the groups regarding EBL, LOHS, overall complications, and major complications. Compared to conventional pneumoperitoneum systems, the AirSeal system offers several advantages in robot-assisted laparoscopic urological surgery: reduced operative time, lower end-tidal CO
