Article in Zhong nan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences, 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
objectivesPrecise minimally invasive treatment has gradually become a core concept in modern surgery, and the rapid development of intelligent robotic systems has further promoted precision minimally invasive fracture management as an inevitable trend. This study aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted minimally invasive techniques with conventional open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in the treatment of Schatzker type I to III tibial plateau fractures.
methodsClinical data of patients with isolated Schatzker type I to III tibial plateau fractures who underwent surgical treatment at the Third Hospital of Changsha between June 2022 and August 2024 were retrospectively collected. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 45 patients were enrolled and divided into a robot-assisted group (
resultsThe operative time was (133.56±24.09) min in the robot-assisted group and (132.19±27.28) min in the ORIF group, with no statistically significant difference (
conclusionsRobot-assisted minimally invasive techniques achieved satisfactory clinical outcomes in the treatment of Schatzker type I to III tibial plateau fractures, with advantages including reduced surgical trauma, faster recovery, and fewer complications. However, larger-scale studies are still required to further validate these advantages.
