First world report of ICG fluorescence angiography integrated in the HUGO™ RAS system: assessment of bowel perfusion during fully robotic right hemicolectomy for cecal cancer.

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
Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography has rapidly spread due to its application in colorectal surgery in evaluating tissue perfusion. Simultaneously, new robotic platforms have been developed recently and used to perform several surgical procedure. We present the first application of the ICG fluorescence system RUBINA integrated in the HUGO RAS system in general surgery.A fully robotic right hemicolectomy was performed for a male patient suffering from cecal cancer using the HUGO RAS system. ICG fluorescence was used to assess tissue perfusion of the ileal and colic stumps before and after ileocolic anastomosis. The ICG fluorescence clearly showed with different modalities a good perfusion of the anastomosis. Moreover, the use of the integrated system with the HUGO platform was safe and easy to interpret in real-time.
