Adrenalectomy Performed with the Da Vinci Single-Port Robotic System: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
introductionThe Da Vinci Single-Port (DV-SP) system emerged in 2018 but there is limited evidence on its use and perioperative outcomes for robot-assisted adrenalectomy (RAA).
methodsA systematic search was performed through PubMed, Scopus, Ovid, and WoS in December 2024. A PICO framework was used. POPULATION: adult patients with adrenal masses; Intervention: DV-SP RAA; Outcomes: feasibility, reproducibility and safety of DV-SP RAA. A total of five retrospective studies involving 342 patients were included. The quantitative analysis was conducted using a random-effect model or a fixed-effect model as appropriate. A risk of bias assessment for non-randomized comparative studies and case series was performed.
resultsThe pooled mean operative time was 92.5 min (95% confidence interval [CI] 71.2, 113.9,
conclusionsDV-SP RAA is a promising approach, offering reduced operative time, low EBL, and excellent cosmetic results. This study shows that DV-SP RAA seems reproducible, feasible, and safe. Limitation of the included studies are small sample size and selection bias, which limits the generalizability of the results. Randomized comparative studies between DV-SP and MP RAA are needed to further validate these findings.
