1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: Robotic adrenalectomy was developed to address the limitations of laparoscopic adrenalectomy and enhance the visualization, dexterity, and control of surgeons performing this beneficial minimally invasive technique. This study compared the clinical and perioperative outcomes of lateral transperitoneal adrenalectomy using da Vinci SP and Xi robotic systems (Intuitive Surgical). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 84 patients who underwent robotic adrenalectomies at a single institution between January 2019 and July 2024. Sixty-two and 22 patients were treated with da Vinci Xi and SP systems, respectively. Results: No significant differences in patient demographics, tumor size, or postoperative hospital stay between the 2 groups were observed. The SP system demonstrated significantly shorter operative times for right-sided adrenalectomy (81.0 ± 17.1 minutes Conclusion: The da Vinci Xi and SP systems are both effective for robotic adrenalectomy, with the SP system showing particular advantages in right-sided procedures.
