Novel Planar Strain Sensor Design for Capturing 3-Dimensional Fingertip Forces from Patients Affected by Hand Paralysis.

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
Assessment and therapy for individuals who have hand paresis requires force sensing approaches that can measure a wide range of finger forces in multiple dimensions. Here we present a novel strain-gauge force sensor with 3 degrees of freedom (DOF) designed for use in a hand assessment and rehabilitation device. The sensor features a fiberglass printed circuit board substrate to which eight strain gauges are bonded. All circuity for the sensor is routed directly through the board, which is secured to a larger rehabilitative device via an aluminum frame. After design, the sensing package was characterized for weight, capacity, and resolution requirements. Furthermore, a test sensor was calibrated in a three-axis configuration and validated in the larger spherical workspace to understand how accurate and precise the sensor is, while the sensor has slight shortcomings with validation error, it does satisfy the precision, calibration accuracy, and fine sensing requirements in orthogonal loading, and all structural specifications are met. The sensor is therefore a great candidate for sensing technology in rehabilitation devices that assess dexterity in patients with impaired hand function.
