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

Colorectal surgery has seen an exponential rise in use of robotics in the past decade. Whilst Intuitive’s multiport platforms dominate the market share, several other systems are in use across the globe. This review sets out to describe the components of these systems, discuss their pros and cons, and analyze the data which underpins their safety, efficacy and efficiency in resectional colorectal surgery.
