Frontiers and hotspots of 3D technology in prostatectomy from 1999 to 2024: a bibliometric analysis and visualization.
Article in Gland surgery, 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
Background: Prostate cancer is a major global health issue. Radical prostatectomy is an effective treatment for prostate cancer. The integration of three-dimensional (3D) technology in prostatectomy offers numerous benefits. We intended to perform a bibliometric analysis of the role of 3D technology in prostatectomy. Methods: Articles and review articles related to "3D" and "prostatectomy" were retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection. Microsoft Office Excel, CiteSpace, and VOSviewer were utilized for analysis and visualization. Results: A total of 441 articles were collected. The annual publication volume and journal distribution were illustrated. Visualizations of collaborations among countries/regions, institutions, and authors were provided. Networks of reference co-citations and keyword co-occurrences, along with their respective clusters were plotted. Conclusions: The number of published papers significantly increased over the last 25 years. The most productive and influential country was the USA, and The University of California System was the most influential institution. The journal with the highest number of publications was
