Applications of robotic technology in orthopaedic surgery: A technology review.
Review in Journal of robotic surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Over the past half decade, there has been increased utilization of robotic-assisted surgery within orthopaedics reflecting improvements in platform ease of use, technology capacity, and performance reproducibility. Currently, total hip arthroplasty (THA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), and spinal fusion, are reflective of the orthopedic surgeries with most common robotic utilization. The principal potential benefits of robotic technology incorporation compared to standard manual approaches in these procedures include reduction of surgeon physiologic stress, decreased invasiveness, mitigation of poor performance outliers, increased precision and accuracy of implant component positioning, and superior restoration of postoperative mechanical alignment. However, there is a general lack of consensus regarding the effect of orthopaedic robotic technology on perioperative and long-term outcomes, complications, and cost efficacy. This review aims to focus on the current state of evidence regarding the safety, intraoperative efficiency, short- and long-term postoperative outcomes, cost efficacy, and regulatory environment of robotic-assisted orthopaedic surgery in THA, TKA, UKA, and spinal fusion.
