Preoperative positioning of robot-assisted tracheal intubation system in intensive care unit.
Article in Journal of robotic 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
Patients with infectious diseases often exhibit severe respiratory distress and breathing difficulties in isolation wards. Tracheal intubation is performed manually to secure the airway by health care providers wearing personal protective equipment to prevent infection spread and getting infected. This paper presents the navigation and preoperative positioning of an autonomous mobile intubation robot capable of independently moving to the patient's bed, positioning the intubation device inside the mouth while the operator completes the intubation procedure remotely, and the robot exits the location independently. The mobile base navigation module includes mapping, localization and path planning using the R3 live multi-sensor fusion algorithm utilizing sensor imputs from lidar, inertia measurement unit (IMU) and RGB-D camera, YOLOv5s object detection and avoidance algorithm and improved A* global path planning algorithm together with time elastic band (TEB) local path planning algorithm respectively. The preoperative positioning module based on facial pose estimation using the retinaface algorithm combined with 6DRepNet to obtain facial pose. This is validated in simulation and physical experiments. The system's navigation time and positioning accuracy compared with related indicators of endotracheal intubation surgery obtained significantly improved results.
