Modeling Non-linear Effects in a 4-DoF Robotic Transcatheter Delivery System.
Article in IEEE robotics and automation letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr), a minimally invasive approach, is becoming increasingly popular for treating mitral regurgitation (MR) since nearly half of the MR patients are non-surgical candidates. However, current TMVr devices are operated manually, increasing radiation exposure to the clinical staff and making telesurgery infeasible. A robotically steerable transcatheter delivery system can alleviate these issues while also enhancing consistency, improving precision, and mitigating human fatigue during the procedure. Moreover, precise manipulation of a surgical robotic system requires effective system modeling. Therefore, in this work, we model a full-scale robotically steerable transcatheter delivery system, accounting for the hysteresis, friction, tendon elongation, and catheter configuration. We also account for the coupling between the joints of the robotic steerable end and the effect of the catheter configuration on the joints. Experiments were conducted in free air to validate the proposed model while subjecting the robotic transcatheter delivery system to similar tortuosity as encountered during a TMVr procedure.
