Accuracy of robotic computer-assisted implant surgery in clinical studies: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo analyze the accuracy of the robotic system in clinical studies and assess potential factors that might affect the accuracy of robotic implant placement. MATERIALS AND
methodsPubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were used to search for studies published from August 2014 till October 2024. Studies on robotic computer-assisted implant surgery (R-CAIS) were identified. Furthermore, manual searches were performed for selected journals. Only clinical studies were included. Subgroup analysis was performed based on robot autonomy, different dentitions, and the working principle of the camera.
resultsSixteen studies met the inclusion criteria, evaluating 908 implants. The meta-analysis of accuracy showed that the average global platform deviation, global apex deviation, and angular deviation were 0.69 mm (95% CI: 0.61‒0.77, I
conclusionThe R-CAIS technology demonstrated a high level of accuracy. However, further large-scale, multi-center, randomized, controlled clinical trials are necessary to compare robotic implant placement with other techniques, and the additional factors influencing robotic implant placement must be explored.
