Lateral access fully robotic aortic valve replacement "RAVR": from novel to normal.
Review in Annals of cardiothoracic surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Right lateral access robotic aortic valve replacement (RAVR) may represent a significant advancement in minimally invasive cardiac surgery. This review examines RAVR's development, technical specifications, clinical outcomes, and future trajectory in cardiac surgery. Multicenter RAVR experiences have demonstrated promising results with low rates of operative mortality (0.9%), stroke (0.9%), and permanent pacemaker placement (2.9%). In propensity-matched comparisons with transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), RAVR had significantly lower rates of paravalvular leak (0.7%
