Intraoperative and Short-Term Postoperative Outcomes Associated With Transoral Robotic Surgery: A Protocol for a Scoping Review.
Article in Acta anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 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
backgroundTransoral robotic surgery has been introduced into clinical practice as a minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of both malignant and benign conditions within the field of otorhinolaryngology. While the long-term outcomes of this innovative surgical technique have been extensively studied, evidence regarding intraoperative and short-term postoperative outcomes remains limited. This scoping review aims to systematically outline and evaluate the current evidence on perioperative outcomes.
methodsThis protocol has been developed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocol and will adhere to the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines for reporting. A structured "Population, Intervention, Comparator, and Outcome" framework will guide the definition of search criteria. A comprehensive search will be conducted in The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, and Embase databases. The study selection and screening process will be performed independently by two reviewers, with consensus reached in cases of disagreement. All identified intraoperative and short-term postoperative outcomes of transoral robotic surgery will be analyzed and described. DISCUSSION: The aim of this scoping review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the existing evidence on intraoperative and short-term postoperative outcomes associated with transoral robotic surgery. This will help identify gaps in the literature and inform future clinical practice and research.
