Feasibility of a sutureless anastomotic technique in robot-assisted vascular surgery.
Article in Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
While other specialties embraced robotic technology, vascular surgery was revolutionized by endovascular techniques. The combination of open surgical techniques with endovascular solutions became standard practice; however, it is considered an unexplored frontier in the evolving field of robotic vascular procedures. One of the criticisms against robotics is the difficulty of vascular anastomosis. Hybrid grafts-although now discontinued-were once used for sutureless vascular anastomosis during open reconstructions. This article evaluates the feasibility of a sutureless anastomotic technique by reincarnating the idea of the hybrid vascular graft: a PTFE graft connected to a self-expanding covered stent.
