Surgical Multidisciplinary Team Meetings Are Enhanced by Collaboration in the Metaverse.
Article in Journal of medical extended reality, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Multidisciplinary team meetings (MDT-Ms) are utilized as a tool for clinical decision-making. Currently, these are in-person or remotely attended via screen-sharing of patients' electronic health records, including clinical findings, numerical data, and two-dimensional and three-dimensional imaging. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is an emerging technology that allows multiple care-providers to remotely interact with each other and with patient data in a metaverse-an immersive and collaborative digital environment. An MDT-M held in the metaverse could enhance surgical decision-making. To develop an IVR metaverse for MDT-M and to test its feasibility and efficacy to visualize data and make clinical decisions in the orthopedic trauma setting. Interviews of users attending existing orthopedic trauma MDT-Ms at a regional major trauma center identified strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for a novel metaverse platform. This was iteratively tested for feature development, and 24 simulated cases were curated from previous admissions. Pilot MDT-Ms were conducted, and user experience was measured using the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) and System Usability Scale. An IVR metaverse platform was developed to conduct MDT-Ms with multiple remote participants. Four MDT-Ms were successfully conducted with health care professionals (
