Targeted Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation for Phantom Limb Sensory Feedback.
Article in IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference : healthcare technology : [proceedings]. IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
In this work, we investigated the use of noninvasive, targeted transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) of peripheral nerves to provide sensory feedback to two amputees, one with targeted sensory reinnervation (TSR) and one without TSR. A major step in developing a closed-loop prosthesis is providing the sense of touch back to the amputee user. We investigated the effect of targeted nerve stimulation amplitude, pulse width, and frequency on stimulation perception. We discovered that both subjects were able to reliably detect stimulation patterns with pulses less than 1 ms. We utilized the psychophysical results to produce a subject specific stimulation pattern using a leaky integrate and fire (LIF) neuron model from force sensors on a prosthetic hand during a grasping task. For the first time, we show that TENS is able to provide graded sensory feedback at multiple sites in both TSR and non-TSR amputees while using behavioral results to tune a neuromorphic stimulation pattern driven by a force sensor output from a prosthetic hand.
