Aging and the perception of tactile speed.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. 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
Eighteen younger and older adults (mean ages were 20.4 and 72.8 years, respectively) participated in a tactile speed matching task. On any given trial, the participants felt the surfaces of rotating standard and test wheels with their index fingertip and were required to adjust the test wheel until its speed appeared to match that of the standard wheel. Three different standard speeds were utilized (30, 50, and 70 cm/s). The results indicated that while the accuracy of the participants' judgments was similar for younger and older adults, the precision (i.e., reliability across repeated trials) of the older participants' judgments deteriorated significantly relative to that exhibited by the younger adults. While adverse effects of age were obtained with regards to both the precision of tactile speed judgments and the participants' tactile acuity, there was nevertheless no significant correlation between the older adults' tactile acuities and the precision of their tactile speed judgments.
