Datasets of fingertip forces while grasping a handle with unsteady thumb platform.
Article in Scientific data, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This article presents the fingertip forces and moments data of the individual fingers and thumb when the thumb was placed on an unsteady platform, when the mass of the handle was systematically increased and when the thumb normal force was restricted while grasping a handle. Further, this article also includes a dataset while the thumb makes vertical movements such as extension (or upward motion) and flexion movement (or downward motion) during the static holding of a handle. An instrumented five-finger prehension handle was designed with a vertical railing on the thumb side. A slider platform was placed over the railing to mount the thumb force sensor. Further, a laser displacement sensor was mounted on top of the handle towards the thumb side to record the displacement of the thumb platform. The dataset includes fingertip forces, orientation of the handle, and the displacement data of thumb platform. This data helps therapists assess the degree of thumb disability, the contribution of ulnar fingers in establishing static equilibrium of a handheld object.
