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

backgroundThis study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes between da Vinci XI and da Vinci SI or SP robotic radical prostatectomies.

methodsThe study systematically searched four databases: Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. The search time ranged from database creation to July 2025. Statistical analysis was performed using Stata17. Effect denoted a continuous variable, whereas OR/RR denoted a binary variable, and the 95 % confidence interval (CI) was calculated.

resultsThe seven included studies involved 2297 patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy. Compared with SP, XI had a longer hospital stay (effect, 0.91; 95 % CI 0.04-1.77; P < 0.05). Compared with SI, XI had a lower positive margin rate (odds ratio, 0.74; 95 % CI 0.57-0.97; P < 0.05). Operation time, estimated blood loss, overall complications, and major complications did not differ among XI, SI, and SP.

conclusionCompared with SP, XI's hospital stay appeared to be longer. Compared with SI, XI seemed to have a lower positive surgical margin. However, more research is needed to determine differences in oncology outcomes and cost-effectiveness among several robotic surgical platforms.
