Evaluating the Reliability of a Shape Capturing Process for Transradial Residual Limb Using a Non-Contact Scanner.
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 5 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
Advancements in digital imaging technologies hold the potential to transform prosthetic and orthotic practices. Non-contact optical scanners can capture the shape of the residual limb quickly, accurately, and reliably. However, their suitability in clinical practice, particularly for the transradial (below-elbow) residual limb, is unknown. This project aimed to evaluate the reliability of an optical scanner-based shape capture process for transradial residual limbs related to volumetric measurements and shape assessment in a clinical setting. A dedicated setup for digitally shape capturing transradial residual limbs was developed, addressing challenges with scanning of small residual limb size and aspects such as positioning and patient movement. Two observers performed three measurements each on 15 participants with transradial-level limb absence. Overall, the developed shape capture process was found to be highly repeatable, with excellent intra- and inter-rater reliability that was comparable to the scanning of residual limb cast models. Future work in this area should compare the differences between residual limb shapes captured through digital and manual methods.
