Single+1 Port Robotic Splenectomy Using the da Vinci SP System-Experience of a Single Centre.
Article in The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS, 2026. 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
backgroundLaparoscopic splenectomy is the standard procedure for benign splenic disease but remains challenging in splenomegaly or complex hilar anatomy. The da Vinci SP system offers enhanced dexterity and visualisation via a single port.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed six female patients who underwent single+1 port robotic splenectomy with the da Vinci SP system between August 2024 and January 2025. A 12-mm assistant port allowed suction, retraction, and stapler use.
resultsMean age was 43.3 years and BMI 24.9 kg/m
conclusionsSingle+1 port robotic splenectomy is feasible and safe; larger studies are warranted.
