The Development of a Built-In Shoe Plantar Pressure Measurement System for Children.
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 2 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
There is a rapid increase in plantar pressure from the infant to toddler stage, yet little is known about the reasons for this change. More information about plantar pressure distribution can help clinicians identify early-stage foot-related diseases that may occur during transitions from childhood to adulthood. This information also helps designers create shoes that adapt to different needs. This research describes the development of a low-cost, built-in shoe plantar pressure measurement system that determines foot pressure distribution in toddlers. The study aimed to improve and provide data on pressure distribution during foot growth. This was accomplished by implementing a plantar pressure capacitive measurement system within shoes. The capacitive sensors were laminated using a copper tape sheet on plastic backing with adhesive, elastomer layers, and a combination of conductive and non-conductive fabrics. Constructed sensors were characterized using compression tests with repeated loads. Results demonstrated that the sensors exhibited rate-independent hysteresis in the estimation of pressure. This enabled a calibration model to be developed. The system can mimic more expensive plantar pressure measurement systems at lower fidelity. This emerging technology could be utilized to aid clinicians, researchers, and footwear designers interested in how pressure distribution changes from infants to toddlers.
