Simulation-based training and education in laparoscopic hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 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
Laparoscopic hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) surgery necessitates mastery of intricate anatomical relationships and precision-dependent techniques. This review synthesizes advancements in simulation-based training and education modalities- three-dimensional (3D) printing, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR). 3D-printed models provide unparalleled tactile fidelity for patient-specific anatomy replication but lack dynamic physiological responses. VR enables risk-free procedural repetition and AI-driven skill optimization, yet struggles with haptic authenticity. AR bridges preoperative planning and intraoperative execution through real-time holographic navigation but faces challenges in cognitive load management. Future advancements must prioritize hybrid simulation ecosystems integrating biomechanical realism with adaptive virtual interfaces, validated transfer-to-practice metrics, and ethical frameworks for emerging technologies.
