Optimizing Safety in Robotic-Assisted Right Hepatectomy With Techniques for Complete Vascular Control of the Left and Middle Hepatic Veins: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Robotic right hepatectomy remains technically challenging, particularly due to the risk of bleeding from the left and middle hepatic veins during parenchymal transection. We present the case of a 71-year-old woman with colorectal adenocarcinoma and an isolated segment 7 hepatic metastasis involving the right hepatic vein who underwent robotic-assisted right hepatectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Key operative maneuvers were employed to ensure safe vascular control, including extrahepatic control of the left and middle hepatic veins, intraoperative ultrasound guidance for vascular mapping, indocyanine green (ICG) assessment of hepatic perfusion, and intermittent Pringle maneuver application during parenchymal transection. The estimated blood loss was 100 mL, with no transfusion requirement or bile leak. This case demonstrates that complete inflow and outflow control during right hepatectomy is feasible with the robotic platform and may improve operative safety in these patients.
