Analysis of the Leap Motion Controller's Performance in Measuring Wrist Rehabilitation Tasks Using an Industrial Robot Arm Reference.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The Leap Motion Controller (LMC) is a low-cost markerless optical sensor that performs measurements of various parameters of the hands that has been investigated for a wide range of different applications. Research attention still needs to focus on the evaluation of its precision and accuracy to fully understand its limitations and widen its range of applications. This paper presents the experimental validation of the LMC device to verify the feasibility of its use in assessing and tailoring wrist rehabilitation therapy for the treatment of physical disabilities through continuous exercises and integration with serious gaming environments. An experimental set up and analysis is proposed using an industrial robot as motion reference. The high repeatability of the selected robot is used for comparisons with the measurements obtained via a leap motion controller while performing the basic movements needed for rehabilitation exercises of the human wrist. Experimental tests are analyzed and discussed to demonstrate the feasibility of using the leap motion controller for wrist rehabilitation.
