Application of augmented reality and surgical robotic navigation in total hip and knee replacement.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
With advancements in computer vision, artificial intelligence, and other cutting-edge science and technologies, the focus of modern surgical technology has increasingly shifted towards intelligent, digital, minimally invasive, and precision approaches. Augmented reality (AR) technology and surgical robotics have emerged as significant research areas in total hip and knee replacement. Navigation systems, which are pivotal in both AR and robotic surgery, play a crucial role in guiding surgical operations using shared techniques. Recent developments in navigation systems for hip and knee replacement have focused on more natural, intelligent, and efficient methodologies. The use of AR and surgical robots for navigation has significantly enhanced the safety and accuracy of these procedures. Importantly, these technologies eliminate the need to implant positioning screws or other reference objects into the bone structure, thereby markedly reducing the risk of severe complications, such as lower limb pain and fractures. This study reviews the current applications, main challenges, and solutions associated with AR and surgical robot navigation systems for total hip and knee replacements.
