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

Capturing finger joint angle information has important applications in human-computer interaction and hand function evaluation. In this paper, a novel wearable data glove is proposed for capturing finger joint angles. A sensing unit based on a grating strip and an optical detector is specially designed for finger joint angle measurement. To measure the angles of finger joints, 14 sensing units are arranged on the back of the glove. There is a sensing unit on the back of each of the middle phalange, proximal phalange, and metacarpal of each finger, except for the thumb. For the thumb, two sensing units are distributed on the back of the proximal phalange and metacarpal, respectively. Sensing unit response tests and calibration experiments are conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using the designed sensing unit for finger joint measurement. Experimental results of calibration show that the comprehensive precision of measuring the joint angle of a wooden finger model is 1.67%. Grasping tests and static digital gesture recognition experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the designed glove. We achieve a recognition accuracy of 99% by using the designed glove and a generalized regression neural network (GRNN). These preliminary experimental results indicate that the designed data glove is effective in capturing finger joint angles.
