Robot assisted stereotactic surgery improves hematoma evacuation in intracerebral hemorrhage compared to frame based method.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) requires prompt hematoma evacuation to mitigate poor outcomes. This study compares robot-assisted stereotactic surgery with traditional frame-based methods for ICH evacuation. A retrospective analysis of 131 patients (45 robot-assisted, 86 frame-based) undergoing surgery within 72 h of supratentorial basal ganglia hemorrhage was conducted. Propensity score matching balanced baseline characteristics between 40 patients per group. Results showed robot-assisted surgery achieved a significantly higher median hematoma evacuation rate (78.7% vs. 66.2%) and shorter median hospital stay (12 vs. 15 days) compared to frame-based surgery, with no significant differences in residual hematoma volume, surgical time, postoperative complications, or short-term functional outcomes. While robot-assisted techniques enhance evacuation efficiency and reduce hospitalization without increasing risks, their long-term neurological benefits require further investigation. These findings highlight the potential of robotic assistance as a safe and effective minimally invasive approach for ICH management.
