Therapist recognition of impaired muscle groups in simulated multi-joint hypertonia.
Article in IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings], 2013. 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
It is common in today's clinical practice for a therapist to physically manipulate patients' limbs to assess hypertonic conditions (e.g. spasticity, rigidity, dystonia, among others). We present a study that evaluates the capabilities of expert therapists to correctly identify the location of a hypertonic impairment of an arm through standard manipulation. Therapists interacted with a hypertonic virtual arms rendered on a robotic device. Our results show that testing joints independently can cause misjudgment of the mechanical contributions of pluri-articular muscles to multi-joint impairment.
