The role of ICG NIRL fluorescence imaging in the surgical treatment of digestive system tumors (Review).
Review in Molecular medicine reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Indocyanine green (ICG) is a relatively non‑toxic fluorescent dye with a history of safe use, which has fueled the development of new applications for ICG. Research on the use of ICG near‑infrared light (NIRL) fluorescence imaging during oncologic surgery has increased, revealing its role in tumor identification and localization, lymph node navigational resection and blood perfusion assessment. The purpose of the present review was to provide a comprehensive overview of advances in the clinical application of ICG NIRL fluorescence imaging during gastrointestinal tumor surgery. The present review discusses the techniques, outcomes, limitations and key considerations necessary for clinical practice, aiming to provide a valuable resource for professionals in the field.
