Motion Analysis and Tactile-Based Impedance Control of the Chest Holder of a Piggyback Patient Transfer Robot.
Article in Journal of healthcare engineering, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Patient transfer, such as carrying a bedridden patient from a bed to a pedestal pan or a wheelchair and back, is one of the most physically challenging tasks in nursing care facilities. To reduce the intensity of physical labor on nurses or caregivers, a piggyback transfer robot has been developed by imitating the motion when a person holds another person on his/her back. As the chest holder supports most of the weight of the care-receiver during transfer, a human-robot dynamic model was built to analyze the influences of the motion of the chest holder on comfort. Simulations and experiments were conducted, and the results demonstrated that the rotational motion of the chest holder is the key factor affecting comfort. A tactile-based impedance control law was developed to adjust the rotational motion. Subjective evaluations of ten healthy subjects showed that adjusting the rotational motion of the chest holder is a useful way to achieve a comfortable transfer.
