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

Aim: Given the growing adoption of robot-assisted hepatobiliary-pancreatic (HBP) surgery and the limited availability of robotic systems, high-volume centers must optimize operating room time management. However, data on multiple robot-assisted HBP surgeries performed on a single workday are limited. This study investigated the outcomes of sequential robot-assisted HBP performed in a single operating room. Methods: This single-center retrospective study included 122 robot-assisted HBP surgeries performed sequentially in a single operating room between September 2020 and September 2025. The outcomes and operating room timelines of the sequential procedures were analyzed, including the incidence of "day-shift completion (defined as patient wheel-out by 5:30 PM)". Results: The procedures performed included robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy ( Conclusions: This study demonstrated the safety and feasibility of sequential robot-assisted HBP surgery in a single operating room. Appropriate case selection may help successfully implement sequential robot-assisted HBP surgeries.
