Single-port robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy: evaluating the Da Vinci SP system in minimally invasive urologic oncology.
Review in World journal of urology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Prostate cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed non-cutaneous malignancy among men worldwide, with over 1.4 million new cases annually. As surgical treatment evolves toward less invasive and more precise modalities, the emergence of the da Vinci Single-Port (SP) robotic system has marked a significant milestone in urologic oncology. Single-port robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (SP-RARP) aims to further minimize surgical trauma, enhance cosmesis, and expedite recovery—while preserving oncologic and functional outcomes. This review synthesizes the current literature on SP-RARP, detailing the technological advancements of the da Vinci SP system, surgical technique refinements, perioperative metrics, oncologic and functional results, and comparative outcomes versus multiport and conventional approaches. We also address the procedural limitations, the learning curve, and future directions, offering a comprehensive insight into the potential of single-port robotics in transforming prostate cancer surgery.
