1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveWe aim to develop and evaluate an MR-conditional concentric tube robot for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) evacuation.

methodsWe fabricated the concentric tube robot hardware with plastic tubes and customized pneumatic motors. The robot kinematic model was developed using a discretized piece-wise constant curvature (D-PCC) approach to account for variable curvature along the tube shape, and tube mechanics model was used to compensate torsional deflection of the inner tube. The MR-safe pneumatic motors were controlled using a variable gain PID algorithm. The robot hardware was validated in a series of bench-top and MRI experiments, and the robot's evacuation efficacy was tested in MR-guided phantom trials.

resultsThe pneumatic motor was able to achieve a rotational accuracy of 0.32°±0.30° with the proposed variable gain PID control algorithm. The kinematic model provided a positional accuracy of the tube tip of 1.39 ± 0.54 mm. The robot was able to evacuate an initial 38.36 mL clot, leaving a residual hematoma of 8.14 mL after 5 minutes, well below the 15 mL guideline suggesting good post-ICH evacuation clinical outcomes.

conclusionThis robotic platform provides an effective method for MR-guided ICH evacuation. SIGNIFICANCE: ICH evacuation is feasible under MRI guidance using a plastic concentric tube, indicating potential feasibility in future live animal studies.
